Sustainability Commitment and Compostable Serviceware

At Washington and Lee Catering, we are committed to minimizing our environmental impact while providing exceptional service. As part of this commitment:

• Compostable Serviceware: All food and beverage orders include compostable plates, cups, cutlery, and napkins made from renewable, plant-based materials that break down naturally in commercial composting facilities.

• Reducing Waste: Choosing compostable products helps divert waste from landfills and reduces reliance on single-use plastics, supporting campus sustainability goals.

• Proper Disposal: We encourage event hosts and guests to use clearly marked compost bins provided at events to ensure serviceware is properly composted. Contamination of compost bins with non-compostable materials can compromise composting efforts.

• Supporting Local Efforts: Our catering service works closely with university sustainability programs and local waste management partners to maximize composting and recycling initiatives.
