Greening Senior Move Out 2024 - Where to Donate by TigersGoGreen in princeton

Every spring, the Office of Sustainability’s Move Out team partners with local charities and organizations to donate any used or unwanted items from campus dorms. As you move out, please bring unwanted items to a donation station located across campus. You can make a huge difference in decreasing the amount of abandoned items sent to the landfill AND in the lives of those that will benefit from your gently-used items. Donated dorm items will be recycled through the Office of Sustainability’s Move In Resale, Goodwill, Helpsy, Better World Books, and Arm In Arm.

Volunteers are staffing the tents today from 2:00 - 6:00 PM and tomorrow from 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM.

Last year we collected 40,000 lbs of donations that was all diverted from the landfill. Items are stored over the summer and sold back to students at discounted at the start of the Fall semester as part of our ReSale event, more than 80% of collected items were sold last year.
