Recycling Program

New York City’s updated recycling requirements was be enforced beginning August 1, 2017.  DSNY inspectors will be performing unannounced site visits in tenant spaces and if deficiencies are found, violations and monetary fines will be issued directly to the tenant.

Below is a summary of the steps necessary to ensure tenant compliance:
  • Implement a 2-bin system to properly sort recycling & waste
  • Ensure metal/glass/plastic is clean prior to disposing in the recycling bin
  • Clearly label all bins stating the type of material that is being collected
  • Post and maintain signage in public, staff, dining, pantry, maintenance & waste storage areas instructing how waste and recyclables should be separated
Please note that SL Green is NOT responsible to provide additional bins, signage or labels to 
tenants. 


Contact the Building Office at (212) 826-0894 with any questions. Your anticipated cooperation is appreciated in helping SL Green continue to make NYC greener.
