University Campus: 22% savings and 31% increase in landfill diversion

This Pittsburgh-based university leans into efficiency and sustainability through various programs such as their Go Green initiative focused on waste reduction.

The Challenge

Much like any other university, this campus deals with high volumes of waste and recycling across multiple buildings with multiple disposal sites. Their challenge was to streamline waste operations and improve their recycling programs to increase landfill diversion. They turned to RoadRunner for fully-managed waste and recycling services to remedy their issues.
