We often wonder where some of
our university surplus ends up. Thus, we've created this page to
highlight some of the success stories.
In the summer of 2007, UVM
removed
theater seating from a classroom in Williams Hall. The seats were
picked up by the Playhouse Movie Theater in Randolph, Vermont- the
oldest movie theater in the state!
This photo features the old seats
in their new home.
This success story was sent to
us by the
Avalon Triumvirate Academy school in Fairfax, Vermont. The
school picked up dozens of old wooden wardrobes from the Residential
Life Furniture Giveaway. They cut the depth down and used the material
cut off for shelves, and
the extenders on top were book shelves that were supposed to fit on
the student desks. Here are the "recycled" shelves in the
school's library.
Thank you for visiting the University of Vermont surplus program. If you have some prized items that you've picked up at one of our surplus sales in the past, we'd love to hear about it, and see how you're using the item. Please email us a photo and your story to recycle@uvm.edu.
