MCC's Bi Annual Shred and Recycle Day is on Friday, April 13TH from 7:30 am to 12:00 pm.


  • What if I need assistance with my materials? For assistance with picking up recyclables before the event, call Sid Ross at 299-8849 or email Sid at sross@mclennan.edu by 12:00 pm on Wednesday, April 11th. We request that you make the materials available for us to pick on Friday morning no later than 10:00 am. You can always call Elaine Fagner with questions at 299-8442 should you need assistance on April 13th.
  • What recyclables can I bring: Bring paper goods, plastic, metals, cardboard, and corrugated boxes. No need to remove staples or paperclips. Plastic containers must be empty.
  • What recyclables are not accepted? Please do not bring any electronics, printer cartridges, glass, Styrofoam, batteries, tires, appliances, used oil or oil filters, antifreeze, hazardous waste, or carbon paper.
  • Will my items be shredded on campus? Shredding does not take place at MCC, and we do not receive a formal document of destruction. That service costs additional money. We do receive confirmation that the paper items were shredded upon receipt by Shred-It.
  • Freecycle/reuse table: De-clutter your space and help us keep good stuff out of a landfill at the same time! Drop off clean, working items that you no longer need. If you see an item on the table that you want, take it. It's free. Any leftover items will be donated to Goodwill or another local charity. If you have items to donate, contact Elaine Fagner at efagner@mclennan.edu or 299-8442 to get those items to the Sustainability Committee.
  • Glass Recycling: Cobbs Convenience Center accepts glass, plastic, aluminum and other metal, cardboard, paper, and corrugated box material from anyone, including those living outside the Waco area. Cobbs Convenience Center is located at 2021 North 44th Street and is open Tuesday through Saturday (8 am - 5 pm) to drop off your materials free of charge.
