Take it or leave it recycling event open to all spring 2025
When
Where
Each of us can be part of an important change towards a more sustainable future. Did you know that approximately 70,000 tons of clothing and textiles are consumed annually in Finland. In the spirit of the recycling campaign on the Otaniemi campus, we organise the traditional
Take it or leave it event!
A recycling point open to everyone is available in the main lobby of the Undergraduate Centre (Otakaari 1) throughout the week of March 17th to March 21st 2025, during the building's opening hours. We take a concrete step towards a more sustainable future by bringing our own used textiles, accessories, books, and small items for recycling. During the same week, we will also celebrate the international Earth Hour event on campus.
If you have textiles that have reached the end of their lifecycle or are otherwise suitable for recycling, you can place them in a separate trolly. However, please note that we do not accept moldy or damp textiles. Small stains are not a problem. Textiles for disposal should ideally be packed in plastic bags.
At the end of the event, all remaining textiles and items will be transferred to the (in Finnish), which will handle their sale or other forms of recycling.
The recycling event is an event organized by the Aalto Campus Sustainability Team.
