Why are we using these containers?
By using reusable containers, participants will join others in the effort to reduce waste on our campus. Last year, we saved over 150,000 containers from ending up in the landfill.
- Does it cost money to sign up?
Participation is FREE to all meal plan and declining balance customers. All participating customers must have a valid UB Card to check containers in and out. All containers must be returned by the end of the spring semester ($5 fee for each container not returned).
- Do I have to sign up?
For meal plan and declining balance customers, all you have to do is ask your cashier for a reusable to-go container and the computer will recognize you the first time you check a container out.
- Where can the containers be used?
Richmond Dining Center, Goodyear Dining Center, and Governors Dining Center
- How long can a container be checked out?
There are no time limits or late fees, but please try and return the container as soon as possible so we can keep them in stock.
- How many containers can each person check out?
Participants can have one (1) container checked out under their name at any given time.
- Does a container have to be returned to the same place it was checked out?
No. You can return your container to any of the following locations: Richmond Dining Center, Goodyear Dining Center, or Governors Dining Center
- Do I have to wash my container?
We handle the washing of all containers in our dishwashing facilities to ensure their proper sanitation. We do ask that you please bring the container back rinsed if possible.
- Can I share my container with my friend/roommate?
No. In order to properly keep track of all containers, only you will be able to check it in and out.
- Are these the same size as a disposable container?
Yes, they are the exact same size.
