Phone app boosts Kennesaw State's Takeout Club waste reduction initiative

A program where takeout food containers at Kennesaw State University dining halls are returned, washed, and reused has seen its effectiveness skyrocket through use of a phone app. KSU’s Takeout Club program has been in existence for years, but when dining services managers pivoted to an app called Fill it Forward, the return rate for meal containers increased significantly. The system lets dining managers keep accurate track of the inventory of containers in circulation, as well as letting them and Takeout Club members know how much waste is being diverted from garbage dumps – more than a half ton so far.
