SUNY Poly has adopted the OHSWA RecycleOne: One and Done program. ALL recyclable items – paper, plastic, metal, and glass – should be mixed together loosely in one recycle bin.
So what is recyclable?
RecycleOne flyers have been provided to each department or office to help everyone understand what is and is not recyclable under the new RecycleOne: One and Done program. The RecycleOne flyer is also available here.
Below are tips for recycling METAL.

Soup Cans, Soda Cans, Deposit Cans, Aluminum Foil Wrap, Foil Plates & Trays, Metal Lids, Aerosol Cans (Empty)
