Campus Facilities

Cardboard Collection Sites

Recycling cardboard is an effective way to reduce MU's environmental impact. Dark-green cardboard collection containers, marked "Cardboard Only," are located throughout campus behind many academic and administrative buildings and residence halls (see map below).

Acceptable materials include:

  • corrugated cardboard
  • chipboard (i.e., cereal boxes)
  • paper grocery bags

Corrugated cardboard boxes must be flattened; Styrofoam packaging, peanuts and plastic sheeting must be removed. Cardboard boxes containing food waste (i.e., pizza delivery boxes) will contaminate a container of recycleables and should be thrown out with regular trash.

Do you have questions about recycling cardboard or would you like to install a cardboard collection container by your building? Contact the CF – LS Solid Waste and Recycling Coordinator at 573-882-7287 or by email.
