Posters and Leaflets

Posters are provided to help advertise the Waste and Recycling system within the University and highlight the process involved for each waste and recycling stream.

Posters

The links below outline our waste and recycling system for both staff and students, highlighting the following details:

  1. Internal bin system and what is acceptable in each bin
  1. External bins used for our 3 waste stream system

Please note that the above poster only refers to the wheelie bins we use for each stream. There are several other external bin types used around the University campus.

We will be adding a document that shows the various waste container types used for each stream.

If you would like a poster like the one above but with the external bin types that are relevant for your building please contact the waste and recycling team.

Raising awareness

Below are posters the Waste & Recycling team have put together to help raise awareness to prevent waste through reusing or reducing. Some posters were created as staff requested a poster with a particular message to raise awareness in their working area i.e. the reduction in use of paper towels for the CSE

Leaflets

Below are links to leaflets the waste and recycling team have put together for staff and students to help raise awareness about the Universities waste and recycling system, excluding student accommodation.
