Ensure that everyone at the office knows how the recycling project works
Identify a collector of recyclables who will collect or buy from your office, or a charity organization that would benefit from the recyclables
Identify which materials will be the easiest to recycle or collectnearest drop-off site (saves fuel!!) or support your curbside collection.
Ensure that your office has a well managed storage facility for the recyclables

Special Notes
