SCHOOLS, COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES

With over 30 years of experience, Urban Impact has assisted schools, colleges and universites to move towards achieving their Zero Waste goals.

Recycling solutions for schools is not one size fits all. Urban Impact can help you with:

  • Cardboard and paper
  • Mixed containers
  • Organics
  • Electronics & small appliances
  • Batteries
  • Garbage
  • Styrofoam
  • Soft plastics

Our teams are specialists in providing quick & bonded garbage, recycling, & shredding services. On site with a big vehicle can disrupt class or be a safety concern.

Urban Impact has created a flexible scheduling system that allows our teams to service academic institutions after school hours or on weekends.

Urban Impact also provides classroom learning with real life content and school tours. Although school tours are not being held right now due to COVID 19 protocols, we will assist your teaching team with real videos, footage and photographs that make learning about waste, recycling and shredding fun!

MEETING YOUR NEEDS

Learn The ABC's

We provide in-person or virtual educational training sessions for you and your staff to learn how your specific recycling program works.

All About The Lists

We will help show your teams what gets recycled and where to put it by providing “Yes” and “No” lists. We have found these lists help assist your teams in getting full participation. We also have a free Recycling App. Find out if a material is recyclable, right at your fingertips.
