Project Summary
The UBC Furniture Reuse Program diverts gently used furniture from disposal by collecting, storing, and redistributing it for use across campus facilities. This initiative supports waste reduction, saves costs, and extends the lifespan of office furniture. By creating a circular reuse system, the program contributes to UBC’s Zero Waste Action Plan and broader sustainability goals.
