Ucycle is dedicated to combating fast-fashion and promoting sustainability at University of Washington. Students often struggle with disposing items due to limited resources. To tackle this, Ucycle offers an intuitive online platform exclusively for UW students to buy and sell pre-loved items, fostering a circular economy and facilitating safe transactions through meetups. This not only provides reliable avenues for selling belongings, but also cultivates a sense of community. Additionally, Ucycle prioritizes safety by implementing features to report scams or safety concerns, ensuring a secure environment. It empowers students to adopt sustainable practices, overcome waste management barriers, and actively reduce waste.
