PSU ReUses!

Portland State's on-campus resource for donating and acquiring used office and school supplies

Reusing items reduces waste and supports PSU's sustainability goals. From resource extraction and production to distribution and disposal, the life cycle of an average product has a huge environmental footprint. By choosing durable goods, and reusing existing products, we can greatly minimize impacts on our environment as well as save money. Thank you for supporting resource conservation and stewardship by visiting the PSU Reuse Room!

Location: Cramer Hall Rm. 180

Hours (fall, winter, spring terms): Monday 11am through Thursday 3pm*

*The ReUse Room relies on part-time volunteers, and the door is always open M-Th. If no volunteer is present, please come on in anyway! Members of the PSU community are welcome to come in and find or donate supplies anytime the room is open.

Hours during summer:

M-TH 11am-3pm

 

Keep up with the Reuse Room via Facebook!

The best way to hear about new supplies on hand, trends, or other reuse-related news.
