Donation Information

After you have made your moving plan and picked what you are moving with you, donate what is usable. We have a list of some of the ways you can prevent good items from being wasted in the landfill on our reuse, donate, and resell page.

Apartment Building Donation Sites

Some large buildings may be working directly with donation organizations to set up donation stations to reclaim usable items.  For example, in years past many downtown buildings worked directly with Goodwill. 

If you are unsure if your building is offering this opportunity, or if you would like your building to participate, contact your property manager to see if Goodwill or another organization may be able to set up a donation site in the building during the move out. 

Daily Cart Collection in the Move Out Area

For 2024, we will have crews in the move out area each work day emptying trash and recycling carts carts starting on August 5 and ending on August 23.

Fill up your carts with the appropriate material according to the guidelines and roll them to the curb by 6:30 a.m. 

We will empty the carts as soon as we can so you can fill them up again, so we can empty them again.

Crews will begin patrolling the student move out area starting August 5 as staffing and time allows.  The plan is for crews to complete their regular assigned routes and collection duties. With any remaining time in the shift, they will go to the move out area to empty carts and collect large items.

As more material is set out, more staff will be diverted from regular duties (like brush collection or street repair) to help with the cleanup duties.

Filling and re-filling your carts keeps your neighborhood clean, and makes our collection much faster so we can stay out of your way while you move.
