📣 Heading home for the summer? Don’t forget to return your Eco2Go containers before you leave!
No need to scrub or clean them—we’ll handle that part for you. Just drop them off at your residence Dining Commons before move-out.
Also, if you’ve got any lingering Dining Commons dishes or cutlery hanging out in your room (you know who you are 👀), now’s the perfect time to bring them back too!
Let’s keep things sustainable 💚
