All schools in New York City, public and private, are crucial to helping our city contribute zero waste to landfills by 2030 -- and all schools must meet DSNY guidelines for separating recyclables and setting out recycling and garbage for collection.
This guide is for any school receiving DSNY collection service. The goal is to make all schools Zero Waste Schools by taking best practices from the first 100 Zero Waste Schools, started in 2016.
Students at Pre-K through 8th grade schools in Staten Island are engaged in a poster contest that communicates "Don't Litter, Recycle!". Finalists will be announced by DSNY, in collaboration with Pratt Industries, the Office of Borough President James S. Oddo, and the Department of Education.
