North Park Recycles!

Residents of North Park Graduate Housing are encouraged to recycle. There are large recycling barrels along the back wall of each North Park garage.  As of fall of 2010, Dartmouth has instituted a "Zero Sort" recycling program, which means that all recycling (except large/corrugated cardboard boxes) can be recylced together into the same barrels. A list of recyclables can be found below. 

More information is available by clicking on the following link:  http://www.dartmouth.edu/~fom/services/solidwaste/recyclingfaqs.html

  1. Steel and Aluminum Cans: These are cans food comes in – i.e. soup; vegetables, as well as soda cans, etc.
  2. Mixed Paper and Boxboard: Mixed paper includes newspaper; magazines; including boxboard (cereal boxes, granola bar boxes) no corrugated cardboard.
  3. Glass: Can be any color. 
  4. Plastics: All plastic containers #1 - #7 are OK to recycle after they have been emptied/rinsed.
  5. Corrugated Cardboard: Usually light brown in color should be flattened and stacked against the wall.
