UCSF Recycling and Waste Reduction Program works hard to ensure that recycling and composting are easy and convenient for all at UCSF.
Our Mission is to incorporate best practices in re-use, recycling, and composting at UCSF facilities to divert and reduce the total amount of waste sent to the landfills each year. Your participation will help ensure that UCSF can reach its waste diversion goals.
