Recycle: Shredded Paper
Shredded paper is compostable, but NOT recyclable. For small quantities of shredded paper, place the paper in the nearest compost bin yourself. Do NOT put plastic bags containing shreds into the compost.
Compostable bags are available for shredders. To request bags, contact the Maintenance Service Desk at x1120 or maintreq@ucar.edu. Be sure to include your name, the size bag you need (13, 30, or 42 gallon) along with the building and room number where you’d like the bags delivered.
If you have a large quantity of shredded paper bagged for pick up, submit a custodial pickup request by emailing the Maintenance Service Desk.
