Tompkins County Solid Waste Management

Division Tours

Tours take place at the Recycling and Solid Waste Center (RSWC) at 160 Commercial Ave in Ithaca.

Tours of the RSWC offer students an opportunity to learn about the importance of recycling, in addition to what is recyclable, how it is recycled, and what it will become.

Tours include:

• A one-hour presentation about the 4R's (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rebuy),
• A tour of the Recycling and Solid Waste Center,
• And if requested, a 20-minute, hands on craft that directly applies the concepts exhibited through the 4Rs.
