RTS in Action
Empowering Sustainability at Suffolk University Through Education and Student Engagement
Problem
Suffolk University in Boston needed to improve their campus waste collection to capture more recycling and optimize pick-up services.
Reduced Truck Trips + Recycling Contamination
RTS’s team of TRUE Advisors worked in partnership with back of the house teams on site to integrate solutions that would allow for optimal waste stream sorting, such as signage, compliance requirements and bin placement.
Reporting + Transparency
Monthly diversion reporting was provided, including real data and insight into the total tonnage of trash, recycling and organics generated on the entire campus.
Technology Support
Real-time, geo-tracking of recycling trucks ensured material was picked up and brought to the proper facility.
