WHERE DOES IT ALL GO?

Campus trash runs are made in the morning and recycling is picked up in the afternoon.TransferStations• receive trash from campus trucks for delivery to landfills or incinerators.BlueMountainRecycling• 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!
