Reuse Market

The Reuse Market is the flagship event within the Office of Sustainability’s Reuse, Renew, Repair Series: a collection of mending and upcycling workshops designed to foster a circular economy on campus. Organized during move-in week each year, the Reuse Market redistributes student donations collected during the previous semester’s Green Move-Out, and makes dormitory essentials items like lamps, rugs, fans, storage caddies, and desk organizers available at no cost to students in an open-air market setting. The 2023 Reuse Market served 750 students and kept more than 6,000 pounds of materials out of landfills.

• 2025 REUSE MARKET:
  Join us for GW’s annual Reuse Market on Friday, August 22 from 12–3pm in University Yard! Furnish your dorm sustainably with FREE gently used household goods, office supplies, kitchen items, and more. All items available were collected during Green Move-Out in May 2025. First come, first served, and all free for the GW community!

This initiative is only made possible through the support of students, staff, and faculty volunteers.
