Recycling
A Message from the Superintendent

There are better places for education dollars
than a hole in the ground!
The Division of Recoverable and Disposable Resources (DRDR), also known as UVA Recycling, is responsible for all recycling efforts at
the University, helping to ensure that opportunities for material-based conservation and reclamation are maximized. The division also
manages waste collection at the University.
In addition to expanding opportunities to recycle, the division is actively involved in promoting efforts to improve sustainability
in the University community. Reduce, Re-Use, Recycle!
