Do I need to sign up to use Reusables?
No, there is no need to sign up or create an account. We have selected Reusables as our partner for reusable packaging because of how easy they make it for students. Just tap your credit or debit card (or mobile wallet) at the checkout to borrow a container. Reusables does offer a mobile app which allows you to keep track of the containers you borrowed as well as receiving helpful return reminders.
What are the containers made of?
The containers we selected are made of durable polypropolene plastic and have a secure lid to stop contents from leaking. These containers can be used and reused over and over again, reducing their environmental impact. At the end of their service life, these containers are sent for recycling, creating a closed loop system with zero waste.
Can I use my student card to borrow a container?
Not yet - we are starting in June with just the ability to use your Credit or Debit card before adding support for Student Cards in the fall.
