Does campus dining operations provide reusable containers for to-go food that are returned for cleaning and reuse?:
A brief description of the reusable to-go container program:
Patrons purchase a recyclable food container at our Union Street Market Food Court for $3.00. They receive a U-Recycle card that they show to a server at a food station at each visit. Food is placed in the clean, sanitized container. After eating, patrons place the used container into a U-Recycle bin located in front of the food court. Each container is made of 100% BPA free polypropylene, incorporated with Microban and is NSF approved.
