Use the Recycling Room or the Vaihtotori secondhand goods option to recyle useable goods

In April a Recycling Room was opened in the basement of E Wing (Room E 105).

This is maintained by the Ekocampus and unneeded goods with some useful life left in them can be left there. You can also pick up things that you need free of charge.

Examples of what you can leave in the Recycling Room include books, appliances that are in working order and anything else that is still useful. No clothes or shoes will be accepted. You can also bring eggboxes to be reused by the organic food producers.

The environmental branch of TAMY, the Student Union, also arranges an exchange market once a month on the Main Campus. This is held in the hallway of the Pinni B Building and operates on the same principle as the Recycling Room.

How to use the University Recycling Room

  • You can bring and take away goods that are in working order and also books. No clothes or shoes, please.
  • The Recycling Room is intended to people to dispose of their personal property. If you have something you want to sell use the fleamarket column at www.uta.fi/ekokampus (Yliopiston kirpputori).
  • Please note that University property can only be left in the Recycling Room with the permission of the appropriate authority, which is the unit called Hankintayksikkö.
  • When bringing or picking up goods please do your part and attend to decent order in the Recycling Room.

The Recycling Room is maintained by Ms. Saana Raatikainen, the Environmental Coordinator.
