About Trash to Treasure

Trash to Treasure, presented by the University Co-op, is a huge goods recycling program run by the UT Campus Environmental Center, an agency of Student Government. Each year we collect students' unwanted belongings as they move out in May, store them over the summer, and recycle them in a huge garage sale when school starts in August.

We recommend signing up for a Trash to Treasure reminder - just put your email address in the box to the right; we'll only send you five emails a year, nothing more.
 

Volunteers Needed
We need more than 100 volunteers! Please click here to sign up. As a volunteer, you will get a free Early Bird Pass to the sale, so you can get the best deals. You'll also get access to a volunteers-only secret preview, where you'll get to scope out the stuff before anyone else. This is a campus-wide recycling effort, and we need your help!

It's all for a good cause!

Trash to Treasure provides three-fold benefits: tens of thousands of pounds of stuff is diverted from the waste stream, students can buy cool, cheap goods for their residences, and the money raised supports campus environmental programs, like recycling, litter reduction, and energy conservation. The program is run by the Campus Environmental Center, an agency of UT Student Government; you can read more about us at http://www.UTenvironment.org. Got questions or comments?
