Donate at Move Out, Pitch In — give items a second life

As students prepare to move out this spring, they’re encouraged not to toss unwanted items — donate them! Move Out Pitch In, a campus‑wide sustainability effort, returns May 7–8, to help reduce move‑out waste and make moving easier.

During move‑out, volunteers from the Center for Civic Engagement will be stationed near residence hall exits and dumpsters to collect gently used items that students no longer need. Donations will be redistributed to incoming WSU students in the fall and shared with Habitat for Humanity, helping support both the campus and the broader community.

Accepted items include:

  • Small household goods
  • School supplies
  • Everyday essentials and lightly used items

If it’s clean, usable, and something someone else could benefit from, please bring it to a donation station instead of throwing it away.

Simply bring your donations to a Move Out, Pitch In collection point near your residence hall or apartment area during move‑out. Volunteers will be on hand to help you decide what can be donated.

By donating, you’ll:

  • Keep usable items out of the landfill
  • Support incoming students
  • Contribute to a more sustainable move‑out experience

Faculty and staff are encouraged to share this opportunity with students.
