Spring cleaning, anyone?  If you’re looking to spruce up your office space this season, there are a few university resources that can help! 

  • Surplus Property promotes a sustainable campus community by collecting items no longer in use and helping them find new homes. Submit a pick-up request for easy-peasy removal, or REdecorate with new-to-you finds from the Surplus REuse Store. Feeling lucky? They’ve also got a weekly online auction! 

  • Go green! When cleaning and clearing your office, reference Zero Waste’s handy-dandy Zero Waste Sorting Database to ensure you’re disposing of materials properly. They also offer team training and helpful resources to equip and educate with information regarding best practices. Oh, and mark your calendars – the next Battery Recycling Collection date is April 13! 

  • Wondering where to start? Here are a few quick tips for tidying up – dispose of trash on desk or in drawers, declutter by reconsidering items you haven’t used in a while, deep clean (and dust!), switch things up by reorganizing your desk, and add something fun and new to your space. Voilà! We’re feeling fresher already. 

Ready, set, clean! You’re all set to make this your cleanest – and greenest – spring yet!
