ARE CITY AGENCIES AND SCHOOLS REQUIRED TO RECYCLE?
Every building in New York City is required by law to recycle. However, the items that must be kept separate from trash differ according to whether your Agency is located in City-owned space with Department of Sanitation collection for garbage and recyclables, or in a building with private waste collection. Agencies: see agency request form. Schools: see recycling in schools and free educational resources. Also note, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation requires all businesses and institutions to recycle computer equipment and mercury-containing lamps.
