Reusable Solutions
Eliminate plastic takeout with ease: the college reusable program that does it all
USEFULL’s integrated reuse system seamlessly plugs into the greater campus dining ecosystem – college administrators, residential and retail foodservice operators, campus partners providing card and delivery platforms, and of course the students being served.
One program, infinite impact
Our ready-to-(re)use solution provides everything you need to succeed – from advanced technology that integrates with current systems to plastic-free containers to full support and beyond.
Quality meets savings
Our durable, thermal stainless steel containers are 100% plastic-free for the greatest impact to both student health and the environment, require no hefty upfront investment, and are more affordable than consistently buying single-use packaging.
Tech-enabled gains
Intuitive and engaging technology gives you the real-time data you need to both quantify environmental impact and ease operations, while maintaining a >99% return rate through built-in student accountability.
This measurable impact isn’t just for bragging rights.
We deliver data to positively impact your ESG reporting, and to help improve your green dining star and sustainability rankings.
