Does the institution have a program to reduce residence hall move-out waste?:
Yes
None
A brief description of the program:
We concentrate on salvaging re-usable items for our FreeUse store. We carry this out by designating FreeUse drop locations at 10 locations around the residential areas, starting 3 days before MoveOut. On MoveOut Day we have a team of students who collect the items, sort them and put them in storage for next year's Move In. We also work with the local Community Action Agency to salvage unopened, non perishable foods from kitchens. Lastly, we hire a team of Compost Commandos to go to kitchens and compost items that have been left behind.
