packing material!
Hold on to reusable crates and bags, then save them for move-out.
Remove tubes from carpet rolls before arriving on campus.
Remove appliances and fans from boxes before arrival.
Empty and flatten cardboard boxes used for packing. Then recycle them at

Duke Recycles also manages the Duke Free
Store. A program that enables, students,
staff, and faculty to donate and/or take any
gently used office supplies, books, classroom
supplies, kitchen supplies, or other various
items. You are FREE to leave whatever you
don't want anymore, and FREE to take
whatever is available! It is the best place to
bring all your extra binders and folders, or
get rid of your roommate's annoying alarm
clock (just kidding).
