May Main Campus Move Out: The mid-May residence hall move-out is the biggest move-out event of the year, during which approximately 2,000 students are required to move out of their rooms by a specific date. The waste diversion event involves a minimum of three (3) days of moving and sorting waste at designated stations into reusables/donation items, recyclables, waste, and other items to reduce landfill volumes. GreenWaste provides clearly-labeled extra containers for this event.
January Main Campus Move Out: The January move-out event is much smaller than the May move-out event. GreenWaste provides clearly-labeled extra containers for this event.
