Please donate reusable items to Phase 2

At the end of every school year, many students have good, reusable items that they don’t want to take home. These items include clothing, blankets, kitchen supplies, small appliances, room decorations, small furniture, etc.

In an effort to keep the dumpsters from overflowing and to be better stewards of resources, the university collects these items through an initiative we call Phase 2 and gives them a second life. We’re happy to accept reusable items, today (Friday) through Sunday, April 28.

Collection barrels will be placed in dorm lobbies across campus. There will also be a drop-off location at Plant Services (#60 on the campus map) during normal business hours, in or near the receiving bay located to the left of the main entrance. Please place donated items in bags inside the barrels.

We do not accept:

  • Trash
  • Damaged, broken, or dirty items
  • Undergarments or socks
  • Items bigger than the barrel
  • Liquids
  • Chemicals (may be placed in a box or bag next to the barrels)
  • Food (take sealed, unexpired food to the Bruin Community Pantry in Lewis Apartment #1)

There will also be a few extra-large dumpsters for trash located on campus. By law, computers, monitors, and TVs cannot go into the trash. They can be placed beside the barrels; please label them if they are broken.
