Please put your cigarettes in the bins provided, not on the carpet or the ground.

Coat hangers can be returned to the Colleague Services Centre for reuse. Cardboard can be placed in the green bin outside the Colleague Services building or by Building 3. Further recycling stations for beverage containers and paper can be found in the Hector basement, the parkade under Engler, the 2nd floor of Englehard, and the basement of Feuz.
