Does the institution have a program to reduce residence hall move-out waste?:
A brief description of the program:
The Recycling Crew arranges for a local thrift store to lend us their truck the week before move-out. Then bins with signage are located at the exits of all the residence halls for clothing, books, & small household furnishings. Larger furnishing like TVs, computers, sofas, carpets, fans and dorm fridges can be loaded on the truck as it moves daily between the res halls. Over the move-out weekend the Recycling crew work emptying recycling bins that are overflowing, and rotating the donation truck.
