ASU West Recycling Services provides for recycling of office paper, newspaper, aluminum and cardboard on
campus. Office receptacles are available for recycling office paper and newspaper. See below for a list
of recyclable paper
There are blue plastic barrels around campus for the collection of aluminum, and barrels can be placed in
departments for collection of aluminum. Corrugated cardboard is also recycled. Cardboard simply needs to be
placed in or near office or department trash cans to be collected for recycling. For more information, to
request a recycling container or to request a pickup, please call (602) 543-7700.
For residential aluminum and newspaper, there are bins at the corner of 49th Ave. and Wood Drive,
diagonally across the intersection from Department of Public Safety/Mail Services. Non-waxed, broken
down residential cardboard boxes can be deposited in the campus cardboard recycling bins. Please call
Recycling Services at (602) 543-7700 for information.
