Readership Survey
Students looking ahead to their end-of-semester move-out have a new option when it comes to disposing of unwanted items. Dump and Run 2006 is a program that aims to divert reusable items from the landfill and reduce the incidence of missorted waste and abandoned bulky items when students are moving after exams.
Students can drop off reusable items at the Central Student Association office until April 24. A “stuff swap” will be set up in the University Centre courtyard until April 14 for members of the U of G community to leave what they don't need and take what they do. Items arriving between April 14 and 24 will be donated to local charities.
Off-campus students can also sign up for a large-item collection program that will enable them to have items such as couches, beds and appliances carted away free of charge between April 10 and 24. Students can register in the UC courtyard or by e-mail at dumprun@uoguelph.ca. To encourage off-campus students to sort their waste properly, the City of Guelph is supplying free blue and green bags.
