Signs, Stickers & Waste Stream Flow Charts.

The posters below were designed for custodian use. We recommend that schools print and display them on the wall in the main custodian closet, provide copies to each custodian and if possible display laminated versions on the main outdoor bins. The posters show how the color bins in classrooms correspond with the color of those outdoors; they are not always the same. Before printing and distributing these files please check that your outdoor bins are the same colors/types as in the posters . (These posters were designed to be printed on 11" x 17" sized paper or smaller.)" JPG files are ideal for sharing electronically, embedding in websites, or adding as images to documents and newsletters. PDF files can be downloaded and printed "as is" for use in your school.
