Spring Salvage

If you live on-campus, you might have noticed the blue bins distributed around your residential college. With the clear donation bag your Spring Salvage coordinator provides you, you can start sorting items to donate into these categories:

HARD STUFF

Electronics, Books, Lamps, Dishes and glasses, Non-perishable food items, etc.

SOFT STUFF

Shoes, Clothing, Bedding, etc.

BIG STUFF

Furniture, Refrigerators, etc.

BAD STUFF

Perishable food, Personal hygiene items, Severely damaged goods
