“During summer 2025 we worked with Verto to support departing postgraduate students to recycle WEEE. A key part of our end of term sustainability plans was to maximise the amount of waste recycled and create solutions which would make it easy for students to take part. Verto were very positive about supporting us and arranged for delivery of 1100 litre containers for suitable items to be placed in. These were positioned at key locations across campus where the waste would be generated, and labelled to make it clear what they were for.
The containers were well used and filled with a variety of items from the students. At the end of the move out period Verto arranged for their prompt removal. We would definitely use this approach again and look forward to working with Verto to make 2026 student departures sustainable.”
