Wheelie bins are provided in most areas of QUT on request and the bins are emptied at least once per week. Please note that it is the individual's responsibility to transfer the paper to a wheelie bin and return the bin to the pick up area (usually the lift foyer). If an area is performing a clean up extra bins can be provided through the Cleaning Section on the relevant campus with 24 hours notice. As paper can be quite heavy when placed in these bins we request that the bins only be half filled this will minimise the risk of injury to the cleaning staff.
There are both secure bins for classified documents for shredding and non secure bins. Please consider if it is essential that your waste paper be disposed of through the secure bin as there is a substantial cost for this service.
Under desk office paper recycling boxes are available on request.
To request a bin, paper recycling box or to arrange a service, email either kgcleaning@qut.edu.au or gpcleaning@qut.edu.au
