Move-Out Recycling and Waste Management Information
If it's still good - don't throw it away. We'll give it to a good home. Last year roughly 50
tons of waste was generated during move out at Keene State College. Less than 5 tons was recycled.
We can do better. Please help!
Boxes will be available beginning May 1st in all residence halls for the following:
- Non-Perishable Food- donated to The Keene Community Kitchen
- Clothing, paired shoes, bedding and linen - donated to the Salvation Army
- Books and school supplies - donated to local and national charities
- Personal care and toiletries, cleaning and other household supplies - donated to the Humane
Society.
- Household goods and appliances - donated to local charities
- Computers, cell phones and other electronic equipment - refurbished and donated if possible. Or disposed of in
an environmentally sound way. Computers have lead, cadmium, mercury, gold and other materials that
need special disposal handling. Televisions and computer monitors have as much as 8 lbs. of lead in
them.
- Sporting goods - donated to local charities.
Look for small wire cages in the Lobbies of Randall, Monadnock and Carle, plus the laundry room of Bushnell/Tisdale for large items such as:
- Furniture - donated to local charities
