SUMMER IS ALMOST HERE!

REDUCE  LANDFILL WASTE...

STORE, REUSE, RECYCLE

  • CAN'T TAKE ALL ITEMS HOME FOR THE SUMMER, OR WHILE ABROAD?

  • WANT NO HASSLE SHIPPING?

Check out Big Red Shipping & Storage, a student-managed company, can pick up your items before you move out and ship them for you, or store them over the summer.

  • NO LONGER NEED STUFF? 

DUMP AND RUN... Donate any of your belongings before moving out. Click here for Dump and Run Information. Through the Dump & Run program, donated items are collected, sorted, and resold at an annual sale held during Opening weekend.  All proceeds benefit local nonprofit agencies.

RECYCLE and COMMUNITY REUSE... More types of plastics can be recycled in Tompkins County than ever before. And community Reuse programs are popular in Ithaca!!! Click here to learn more about recycling in Ithaca.
