How to recycle plastic water bottles on campus

From: Division of Facilities 

Number one and number two plastic bottles can be recycled in recycling bins on Virginia Tech's Blacksburg campus. The number of the bottle can be determined by checking the triangle located on the bottle.

Other items that can be recycled on campus include aluminum and steel cans and paper. Before recycling a bottle or can, please make sure it is empty. 

Thank you for your support and cooperation in creating a more sustainable campus.
