The Associated Students Recycling Center at CSULB is an award-winning, State-certified drop-off facility and redemption center. It manages beverage container and University Student Union recycling, and provides a convenient location where students and community members can donate recyclable materials and redeem their CA Redemption Value beverage containers.
In an average month the Recycling Center collects and processes more than 150,000 pounds of material that might otherwise be disposed of in landfills. This includes approximately 300,000 beverage containers. The aluminum cans recycled at the center in one month save the equivalent of 7,488 gallons of gasoline or enough energy to operate a television 24 hours a day for 55 years. The soda and water bottles recycled each month conserve 88 million BTUs. The paper recycling each month conserves 213,500 gallons of water and 518 trees. One month’s glass recycling saves 3,650 pounds of mining waste.
