School Waste Characterization Data
Waste characterization means finding out how much paper, glass, food waste, etc. is discarded in your waste stream. This typically involves collecting, sorting, and weighing waste generated at schools and district facilities. Waste characterization information helps in planning how to reduce waste, set up recycling programs, and conserve money and other resources.
One of the first steps in developing a districtwide waste reduction program is to identify the characterization of the school waste stream. This task is a critical component of conducting a districtwide waste assessment. A school district does not need to complete a comprehensive waste characterization study to estimate the composition of its waste stream. The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) has collected and prepared school waste characterization data that can be used as a tool by a school district to help plan new waste reduction programs and to evaluate existing efforts. The following chart illustrates the estimated composition of waste disposed by schools in California. These data may not be representative of the waste composition of your school or school district (see data limitations and details below), in which case, you can refer to Seeing Green Through Waste Prevention--A Guide for School Districts (Pub. #500-94-010) regarding how to evaluate your school district's specific waste stream for waste reduction planning. Additionally, provided below are other resources for conducting a school waste characterization audit (waste audit) either for program planning or for instructional purposes.
