Meal Plan FAQ | Sun Devil Hospitality (2024)

Sun Devil Hospitality To-Go Box program allows customers the opportunity to purchase a $6.00 reusable, environmentally safe, sustainable to-go container. Boxes, are available at the cashier station, and must be returned in exchange for a new box at each visit or a To-Go $6 card. Each To-Go box equals one meal swipe. For your To-Go meal for the existing meal period - you grab your entree, side, dessert, and go on your way!

Rules of the Program:

• To participate in the Reusable To-Go Box program, you will receive a To-Go containerfor $6.00
• Once the container is used, trash or any uneaten food should be discarded. The box should then be brought back to the a residential dining location and given back to the cashier stand.
• In the event that a container is returned but a take-out meal is not requested at that time, you will be issued a Sun Devil Hospitality card with $6 on it that you can redeem for another To-Go box during another meal period.
• Students may fill up their container will the foods of their choice that are currently available during that service time but the lid must be able to close.
• Students will be allowed to bring their own drink container to fill with a beverage of their choice
• Students must request To-Go before the card is swiped. You are not permitted to utilize To-Go and consume a meal inside the dining hall on the same card swipe payment.
• Bottles, jars, bulk containers, such as those containing spices, oils, vinegar, condiments, and honey should not be removed from that location.
