Recycling Stations

Each academic building on campus has centralized waste stations (plastic bottles, cans, paper and trash) throughout the building. These stations are generally emptied weekly with some emptied every other week. Our residence hall recycling bins are emptied each Friday by the City of Bozeman. Family grad housing is emptied twice a week (Tuesdays and Fridays).

Recycling Dumpster

Several large, well-marked dumpsters for Office Paper and Cardboard are provided for "self-serve" use in convenient outdoor locations around campus. Outside most academic buildings on campus there are large cardboard and paper dumpsters for bulky amounts of recyclables. Cardboard is collected throughout the week and paper is about once a month

Paper Shredding

Need to shred paper? There is not a place on campus to shred large amounts of paper, but Tear It Up LLC is a local company that can do that for you. To check out their pricing and service options, just click on the link above. If you shred your own paper, please bag it (preferably with a clear bag)

Events

 Please see our Events Recycling page for details about recycling services at various sporting events and concerts

Surplus Furniture

The university has a Surplus Website where you can fill out a form to have usable furniture picked up or you can search for furniture you may be looking for.

Packing Peanuts

Copy Cats will sometimes take packaging materials if space allows. Other off campus shipping stores also accept packaging materials 

Special Pickups

If you are planning an office clean-out or have other large-volume recycling needs, please use the nearest recycling dumpster or contact our office to arrange an extra pick up. Please do not use the indoor recycling stations for large volume deposits, as this may lead to an overflow between scheduled pickups.

 

NOTE: The large recycling containers located off of College are not part of the MSU Recycling program. This is a public drop-off location provided by Gallatin County. Go to Recycling FAQ for more information.
