Dining Services
The most sustainable way to dine is to dine-in. However, if you must take a meal to-go, please choose a Go Green reusable container. They are FREE to all UD affiliated customers.
The success of the Go Green program depends on YOU returning your dirty container to Dining Services.
Choosing a reusable dining container for meals or dining in significantly reduces the number of single-use disposable to-go containers that go directly to the landfill when discarded!
Also, because our disposable to-go containers are compostable, they have considerable costs. These costs are passed on when you place a to-go order that is NOT in the green containers.
Eat. Return. Repeat.
This is a zero waste initiative to create awareness and assist in eliminating landfill waste.
How It Works:
- Order your meal at a Dining Services location, and ask for a reusable green container
- At check-out, you will scan your ID then scan the barcode on the top of the container
- Enjoy your meal
- When you are finished, return your unwashed container to a designated return bin, or tray return area at Kennedy Union, Marycrest & VWK
- Containers are washed and sanitized in our commercial, high-temperature dish machines.
The containers are 100% reusable and 100% safe. They are not for trash or recycling.
