Surplusing Items
Campus,
As the new year is starting to ramp up and new projects are beginning to unfold, Facilities would like to remind everyone about surplus protocols. When a department decides to surplus items please make sure to clearly mark the pieces that will need to be picked up. Please leave all surplus items in the room or area they are in. Do not place items in hallways, thus causing noncompliance to both disability access and fire safety requirements. After items have been labeled, submit a work order request (request type desc: Logistics) to Facilities. Surplus will be picked up within a 30-day time frame of the request being accepted. If you have any other question, please contact us at facilities@tntech.eduThank you, Facilities
