#  Recycling & Waste 

As the primary campus waste hauler, Recycling & Waste Services is responsible for sustainable materials management across Harvard’s Cambridge, Allston, and Longwood campuses. We manage municipal solid waste, single stream recycling, and food waste streams, both through our own drivers and through contracted vendors. Services we coordinate also include mattress recycling, textile recycling, e-waste and universal waste recycling, plastic film/bag recycling, and furniture and appliance pickup.
