How it Works

  • 1 Download the Fill it Forward app and log in using your school email.
  • 2 Scan your container using the Fill it Forward QR code and show it to staff.
  • 3 Scan and drop off your container in a designated return bin.
Hamilton College partnered with Fill it Forward to implement Borrow in Fall 2024 and saw a measurable impact:
  • check 170 Daily Rentals
  • check 98.5% Return Rate
  • check $7,000+ Cost Savings Per Semester

Re-launching Hamilton’s Green-to-Go program with the Fill it Forward app provided the data and accountability we needed. The Fill it Forward team has been fantastic to work with, fully sharing our commitment to success.
