Hello everyone,

Many of our residential student on campus use a water service to have bottled water dispensers in their residence hall rooms. We recently switched to a vendor who uses recyclable 4-gallon jugs that are made out of a thin, crushable plastic. 

As you can imagine, we have water jugs laying around everywhere in our recycling areas. I've looked for safe, easy to use manual crushers for these, but cannot find anything. Have any of you found a way to manage the loose jug component of offering a water service on campus?

Yes, we have installed filtered / chilled bottle fillers in the residence halls, but that has not eased the demand for the bottled water.
