Does the institution have a program to reduce residence hall move-in waste?:
Yes

A brief description of the program:

The University of Minnesota Recycling center collects unwanted recyclable materials such as paper packaging and cardboard boxes that are leftover from move-in.

More recently, the U of M has begun working with gooddonor.org to set up collection boxes at the residence halls during move in and move out dates. The collection boxes will then go to various charities in the area.
