Blue Bag

The Blue Bag program complements the university’s widespread blue bin commingled recycling program. The following items are blue-bag friendly:

• Batteries - dry cell, non-rechargeable.
• Candy wrappers.
• Chip bags.
• Coffee pods, one-time use.
• Energy bar wrappers.
• Small eWaste such as calculators and MP3 players.
• Small toner cartridges.
• Spent pens and markers.
• Used plastic gift cards.
• Water filters.

How to recycle:

Blue bags are available free of charge to offices and departments on all ASU campuses. Request a blue bag for your kitchen, office suite or other common area.  

We currently have over 600 blue bags in service on Downtown Phoenix, Polytechnic, Tempe and West Valley campuses.
