Environmental Sustainability
Electric Salt Spreader
Gas powered salt spreaders have been replaced with electric powered versions, reducing harmful emissions in the air.
GEM Electric Vehicles
Electric vehicles have been added to the University fleet for use by maintenance workers to easier navigate campus without leaving the carbon footprint that a gas powered vehicle would.
Oil Filter/Can Crusher
Complying with EPA guideline, our heavy-duty shop crusher is designed to quickly and efficiently reduce cans and oil filters to less than 20% of their original size, while also removing up to 95% of the oil sludge trapped inside.
Used Oil Furnace
When oil that is used to lubricate the engines in University vehicles is changed, the old oil is recycled by using it to heat the Auto Garage.
