Ways to get involved with Recycling at Beaverdam Elementary School (BES):
- Recycling bins in the parking lot - Can community members bring recycling to go in there?
- Ink - BES recycles both large and small ink cartridges but not the big toner cylinders for copiers.
- Small ink cartridges can be sent in to the library at school or sent in directly to Planet Green Recycling.
- Large ink cartridges are donated through Funding Factory. Check their website for a full list of recyclable ink cartridges. These ink cartridges should be sent directly to the school library.
- Fabrics - There is a fabric donation bin in the parking lot of the Doswell CITGO. Fabrics donated in this bin benefit our school.
Raising Funds
