You • separate recyclables and dispose of your trash in the appropriate containers. Housekeeping • collects blue recycling bags and clear trash bags from inside Penn buildings and offices together and transports them to trash and recycling dumpsters at the buildings’ designated loading docks. Facilies • then picks up trash and recycling separately, but with the same trucks. Campus trash runs are made in the morning and recycling is picked up in the aſternoon. Transfer Staons • receive trash from campus trucks for delivery to landfills or incinerators. Blue Mountain Recycling • then accepts Penn’s recycling at their Grays Ferry-based Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), where the recyclable materials we recycled on campus are sorted, packaged and shipped to be remanufactured into new products! . . .
