Waste

Estates Services is responsible for the collection and makes arrangements for general waste disposal.

The current arrangements achieve a 100% diversion from landfill, with all Ulster General Waste being recycled or re-used.

Segregation of waste is undertaken off-campus at a specialist waste handling facility and this is why there are not separate bins on campus for the various waste types.
