Residential & Dining Enterprises Maintenance Operations & Capital Project’s annual Give & Go move-out donation program was a success! Through Give & Go, 69 tons of items were collected; these were diverted from the landfill and provided to our community partners. This was an increase of 26% compared to 2023.
Thank you so much for your diligence in keeping reusable material out of the landfill and for helping Stanford meet its zero-waste goals during move-out!
From sustainable beats and food recovery leaps, the year 2025 set a new standard for Stanford traditions and operations.
We’re building our zero waste playbook—starting with the stats. By hand-sorting our trash, we’re uncovering strategic cuts to the landfill.
The university earns STARS Platinum in version 3.0, the highest score under the sustainability rating system.
