USEFULL’s student-friendly reusable takeout program helps students take action for a better future, without disrupting their lives today.

We know students are some of the busiest people there are – always on the go and needing modern solutions to support that lifestyle. That’s why USEFULL teams up with colleges across North America to bring their students a proven, pragmatic approach to reusable takeout that makes it easy for them to:

• Make a positive environmental impact: USEFULL’s plastic-free reusable takeout program makes single-use packaging a thing of the past. Each student participant is contributing to saving trash, water, and emissions – numbers that really add up!
• Feel good about not ingesting plastic: Eating food and drinks served in plastic poses documented health risks imparted by the shedding of microplastics and the release of PFAs (a.k.a. “forever chemicals) – something made worse when microwaving. 
• Enjoy the takeout eating experience: USEFULL’s thermal stainless steel containers keep hot food hot and cold food cold for 5+ hours, so students can enjoy fresh meals as intended – even if it takes awhile to get back to the dorm to eat. 

All this comes at a convenience similar to borrowing a library book. It’s intuitive and fits right into the daily college routine. Students simply download the USEFULL app, which connects to their primary campus card, and start the reuse cycle.
