Thrift swap underway through December 12

The Thrift Swap is a biannual event hosted by the Residence Life Team and the sustainability offices of 萌妹社区 and Durham College. It’s an opportunity for all students, staff and faculty to divert items from the landfill by swapping out, donating or recycling them. Drop off items in the lobbies of both Simcoe and South Village Residences by Thursday, December 12.

Items accepted:

  • batteries
  • clothing
  • disposable plastic bags
  • e-waste
  • non-perishable food items
  • paper
  • small household appliances
  • used books
  • writing utensils

Clothing and small household appliances will be donated to the Canadian Diabetes Association, non-perishable food items will be donated to the campus Holiday Food Drive, and all other items will be recycled through the proper channels.
