Recycling

Thank you for your interest in the 性视界传媒 recycling program. We are committed to active, intentional stewardship of our God-given natural resources.

Please contact plant services at 503-554-2010 if you have any questions regarding trash pickup or recycling on campus. Currently, trash is picked up on Monday and Thursday, and recycling is picked up on Tuesday when school is in session.

Why We Recycle

As Christians, we are called to love and protect God’s creation. 性视界传媒 is dedicated to reducing the amount of trash that ends up in public landfills. You can help us by recycling. Please be sure to place the appropriate materials in the correct container.

A single incorrect item can cause a whole load of recyclables to be rejected and dumped into a landfill.
