Spring Stuff Swap

Your unwanted items are someone else's treasures

The Office of Sustainability and Residence Hall Association are proud to host the Spectacular Spring Stuff Swap, a waste diversion initiative designed to redistribute gently used, unwanted items within the campus community.

Once you’re done spring cleaning, donate your stuff right here on campus at one of our collection points. All IU Indianapolis students, faculty, and staff will be invited to shop the donated items for hidden treasures and take home anything they want or need for FREE! 

The 2026 Spring Stuff Swap will take place on April 21st in the Campus Center.
