Ditch the dumpster and donate when you move out

Ditch the dumpster and donate when you move out

Dear residents,

I’m reaching out to wish you good luck on your exams and a safe and comfortable move out (if you’re leaving!) To limit waste entering the landfill, we ask you to consider reselling, reusing or repurposing any items you don’t want.

Dawgs Ditch the Dumpster is another option. This annual move-out program aims to divert waste from the landfill and into the hands of local non-profits. Drop-off locations are located across campus, check the link for a map and list of items we accept.

BULKY TRASH

(rugs, broken furniture, sleeping pillows, etc.)

Goes in the open-top large dumpsters

DONATIONS

(futons, clothes, mirrors, bedding, appliances, etc.)

Go in the trailers marked on this map

BAGGED TRASH

Goes in the compactors or your regular trash dumpster 

Thanks, and I hope you finish the semester strong!
