City Solid Waste Department to Host Second Year of ‘Move Out Give Back’

The City of Lubbock Solid Waste Department will host its second year of the ‘Move Out Give Back’ initiative May 5 – May 6, 2023. The goal is for participants to donate reusable items from temporary student housing instead of disposing of items when they move out. Two temporary drop-off sites will be available for donatable items such as hard surface furniture and small, working appliances. Participants are also encouraged to bring large bulky items (that are damaged or broken) to properly discard.
