Since January 2007, St. Paul Public Schools and Administrative buildings have recycled 6,290,000 lbs of paper, plastic bottles & cans.*
These are resources saved from the incinerator, modeling environmentally responsible behavior to our students, staff and community.
We take extra care to recycle our confidential papers – they are kept 100% secure until they are turned fully into pulp to be recycled as new paper. Learn more about our vendor ShredRight.
"Waste is preventable, not inevitable" is Eureka's philosophy. "Zero Waste" is their goal. We couldn't agree more. Together we are seeking ways to save every plastic, paper and metal item from our waste stream and make it available for use in a new recycled product. Learn more about Eureka Recycling.
We go through a lot of cardboard at each school. That's why we work with Walters Recycling to specifically manage cardboard collection – they also service our non-recyclable garbage. Learn more about Walters Recycling.
