A brief description of the program:
The Sustainable Move Out program takes place annually in April. Collaboration exists within Student Housing and Hospitality Services between Residence Life and our Building Services operations to ensure that communication, marketing and implementation of the program are aligned. Our aim is to reduce the volume of waste that reaches the landfill during residence move out by a) creating awareness for students to recycle their unwanted goods and b) making reducing unwanted goods as easy as possible and increasing student participation.
Collection bins are placed in each residence area to collect the following items: Batteries (ongoing), recycling (ongoing), electronic waste, clothing, bedding, household goods, soaps, shampoos, detergent, canned food goods, bikes, and books.
