Tips for a Sustainable Move-In
Bring all of your waste to the appropriate dumpster!
- Break down cardboard and place in open top dumpster labeled “Cardboard Recycling”.
- All trash—including Styrofoam, plastic bags, bubble wrap, and air pillows—goes in the open top trash dumpster.
- Other recycling—cans, paper, plastic containers—goes in blue dumpsters.
Locate the nearest dumpsters to you by using our —select “Trash” and “Recycling” on the left-hand column.
- All traditional-style residence halls come with small recycling and trash bins. Students can use this to help separate trash and recycling when moving in. These bins are part of the room and will result in a room charge if missing at the end of the year.
Follow these tips to make your move-in green!
Reach out to sustainability@endicott.edu to learn more about making your move-in sustainable.
