Cal Zero Waste Bin List

Centralized stainless steel sets are used for high profile areas and buildings. They are an alternative to the standard sets, featuring a modern triangular or quadrangular design.

The standard bins used when Cal Zero Waste implements composting and recycling in a campus building. A set includes four bins: compost, landfill, mixed paper, and cans and bottles. The bins have lids to contain smells, keep out pests, and discourage contamination.

Made from durable lightweight ABS plastic, Busch bins are used in research laboratories. The lid flaps are designed to minimize contamination.

Each unit features four cabinets which contain the different waste streams: compost, mixed paper, landfill, and cans and bottles. They are also retrofitted with unique signage and lids to encourage waste diversion.

Desk-side bins are being phased out across campus to improve landfill diversion and custodial workload efficiency, as well as reduce costs. If your office would still prefer to purchase desk-side bins, they will have to be emptied by building occupants into centralized standard bins.

Powered completely by solar energy, each unit compacts up to 33 gallons of recycling, landfill, or compost materials. They also alert grounds services via text message whenever they reach capacity and feature an enclosed design which keep wildlife out

Compost barrels hold 32 gallons of material, making them ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, events, and other high traffic areas.

Carts come in 32, 64, and 96 gallons. Compost is available in all sizes, while mixed paper and landfill are available in 64 and 96 gal. Their compact and light ergonomic design make them a great alternative to dumpsters.
