CMU Football Tailgate Recycling

This year CMU is started a new recycling program during football games to reduce waste and make our campus GO GREEN. Below is a simple outline of how the tailgate recycle will be running and what, in fact, is recycling.

All around the football stadium as well as in the football stadium will be green and blue recycle bins. Each recycle bin will be labeled with what can actually go in it. For instance one bin will just be for cans. There will be 90 bins throughout the tailgate to make recycle easier and more convenient for everyone. All we simply ask is for people to put the recyclables in the correct container, this way we can continue doing this program in the following years.

What is recyclable?

  • Cans
  • Plastic Bottles
  • Glass Bottles
  • Styrofoam
  • Cardboard
  • Paper

What not to put in the bins?

  • Charcoal
  • Food
  • Foam Cups
  • Plastic Cups
