About

RecycleMania is a ten week cooperative recycling competition geared towards universities and colleges nationwide to see who can collect the largest amount of recyclables per capita. Recyclables are weighed out and reported each week by each institution and the winners receive a RecycleMania trophy, awards, and/or participation certificates. More importantly, RecycleMania is a great way to get everyone involved in recycling and spread awareness of good waste management practices.
