Student move-out and reuse program
The U Don’t Need It program provides students who are moving out of University of Delaware housing or off-campus residences an opportunity to put items they no longer need to good use while also being friendly to the environment. The goals of the project are to reduce local landfill waste and to redirect reusable items to the community.
Items in good and reusable condition that will be accepted include sofas and loveseats, living room chairs, ottomans, dining tables, dining chairs and stools, coffee tables and end tables. Furniture items also include bookcases, storage units, cabinets, shelving units, entertainment centers, desks, futons and bed frames and dressers. Household goods include lamps, carpets and rugs, home décor items, housewares (including dishes, pots, pans and utensils), bedding and linens, fans, air conditioners, small appliances, large appliances and outdoor, patio and lawn and garden items. Electronics welcomed for donation include televisions, stereo systems, computers and components. Miscellaneous items include tools, toys and games, bicycles, sports and exercise equipment, books, school and craft supplies, clothing.
Unopened, nonperishable foods can be donated at the site and will be sent to the Food Bank of Delaware.
Students will be able to donate used UD Commencement regalia so that it can be used by future students in need.
