Here you find information about how and where to recycle.

Recyclables

In SP, there are 3 groups of recyclables. Follow the links for more detailed information.
  1. Commingles (glass, plastic (1-7), metal)
  2. Paper (card board, printer paper, journals, envelops (with plastic window))
  3. Compost (vegetable peels, plant parts, egg shells)
Accessories and More Info

If you want you can receive a small recycling bin to collect recyclables and compost in your apartment (different designs are available for paper/commingles and compost - the compost bins have a lid that closes firmly). Please contact our house manager Dennis Collins at sp-housemanager @ mit.edu to receive one.

You can find background info about the recycling company and the reasons for some restrictions here.

If you have any questions about recycling at SP, drop an email to sp-recycling @ mit.edu. Questions about recycling at MIT in general can be directed to recycling @ mit.edu and jwadams @ mit.edu.

Thanks for joining and happy recycling!

Think About This...

If you had bought $1000 worth of :

Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49. With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1,000. With Worldcom, you would have less than $5 left.

If you had bought $1,000 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.

Based on the above, current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
