Hub Dropoff

Each month during the Fall and Spring semesters, the Office hosts dropoff stations for items accepted by the Hub (excluding items that require an extra fee).

Office employees will gather your non-curbside recyclables and transport them to the Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub at no cost to you. Items must be clean, dry, and free of debris!

Items accepted by the Hub that are commonly found on and around campus include:

• Grocery bags
• Straws & plastic utensils (wrapped or unwrapped)
• School & office supplies (in any condition; no binders)
• Styrofoam
• Plastic packaging
• Aluminum (foil, single use catering pans, etc)
• X-rays

Overwhelmed by how much the Hub accepts? Start by holding onto one item you find yourself frequently tossing, like grocery bags or plastic mailers, then bring your stash to us. We'll keep it out of the landfill for you!

To see when the next dropoff is, check out our Events Calendar!

We welcome your ideas on how to grow our waste diversion initiatives (& promote circularity) even further! Reach out to jen.vasconcellos@uc.edu with suggestions, comments, or inquiries♻️😊
