RecycleMania is a friendly competition among over 400 college and university recycling programs in the United States that provides the campus community with a fun, proactive activity in waste reduction.
Over a 10-week period, campuses compete in different contests to see which institution can collect the largest amount of recyclables per capita, the largest amount of total recyclables, the least amount of trash per capita, or have the highest recycling rate. The main goal of this event is to increase student awareness of campus recycling and waste minimization.
