Residential Compost Program

Composting provides a fantastic opportunity to reduce waste and provide a valueable by-product that can be used for landscaping and gardening.

The Commercial Compost Program used by RAD is the same program available on upper campus and accepts food scraps as well as other compostable products such as pizza boxes and food contaminated paper products.  These items are taken to a local facility that uses a large scale, highly technical system to break down these compostables.

Check out the Recycling and Compost rooms located throughout freshman housing to learn more about the composting system.
