Disposal of Electronics(computers, monitors, keyboards etc.)
Information Technology manages the disposal of these items.
Composting
Binghamton University composts a mix of pre- and post-consumer food waste from the dining halls, marketplace, select cafes, and Campus Pre-School and Early Childhood Center. Plant material is also collected from the E.W. Heier Teaching Greenhouse. The organic material is collected and composted on a local farm. Once composted, the material is returned to the University and used in educational gardens, the greenhouse, academic research, and a variety of areas by the grounds department.
Move Out Project
Managed by the Susquehanna Group of the Sierra Club, Move Out Project (MOP) is a volunteer-run initiative aimed at diverting waste from the landfill and giving back to the community during Spring move out. During the month of May, volunteers pick up unwanted but usable items from students moving out of their college housing. The items are then sorted and donated to organizations in the greater Binghamton area who then disperse them to community members. More information can be found here.
