Join the Carry Out Club
Purchase your Carry Out Club kit at any Residential Dining Center for only $8.00 tax (Dining Dollars, Campus Cash or Cash). The kit includes a heavy-duty plastic reusable tray & lid, one set of silverware, a UB/ CDS Refillable Mug and two (2) $5.00 Food Certificates. If you already have a UB/CDS Refillable Mug, you can purchase just the Carry Out tray & lid along with a set of silverware and two (2) $5.00 Food Certificates for $6.00 tax. Use your Carry Out tray and fill it up with your meal to-go. When you come back to the Dining Center for another meal to-go, bring your tray, lid and silverware (no need to wash) and we'll replace them with a complete clean and sanitized set. Bring your CDS Refillable Mug with you each time you are getting your meal to-go. The mug will not be exchanged, it is yours to clean and reuse anytime you need to. By using your Carry Out tray and Mug, you will help in reducing the amount of waste that would otherwise end up in a landfill.
