Freshmen Move Out Day

UC Davis Student Housing's Spring Cleaning program takes place in the residence halls during the week before the halls close for the year, so students - as they prepare to move out - may identify clothing, electronics, and other items that they no longer need or want and turn them in so they will continue to be used by others.

During the Spring Quarter finals week, Student Housing will establish a collection center in each residence hall where residents may bring their reusable items. Most collection centers are set up in residence hall lounge areas.

More information about the event, including maps, can be found at http://www.housing.ucdavis.edu/sustainability/springcleaning.asp. Those interested in volunteer opportunities should contact the UC Davis Student Housing Sustainability Coordinator.

Spring Cleaning was formerly known as "Resource Recovery Drive" until 2010. UC Davis R4 (now Waste Reduction and Recycling) had coordinated the program from 1992 - 2008. Student Housing assumed responsibility for the program in 2009.

2009 Donation - 7,137 pounds (5,244 Goodwill and 1,893 Food Bank)
2010 Donation - 10,000 pounds (7,976 Goodwill and 2,124 Food Bank)

At the end of August, the City of Davis Recycling Program has its yearly Apartment Move-Out Waste Reduction Program to reduce waste from turnover. Volunteering opportunities are available.
