GFU Inventory/Surplus Removal Form

The requestor's Supervisor must first approve the removal of obsolete GFU property from designated spaces. Once approved, Procurement Services and Plant Services will work together to remove or dispose of the item(s)


Should we sell or auction off the items, it's important to note that all items, regardless of the departmental budget from which they were originally purchased, remain the property of the university. Therefore, all proceeds generated from the sale of obsolete equipment are directed into the university's general fund.


Please be aware that submitting this request does not guarantee immediate pick-up of your items. At least two weeks should be expected for all items to be picked up due to other work orders our Porter team are currently addressing. This form is used to manage the flow of excess inventory and assets that accumulate throughout the University. Once we have identified a space for storage or disposal, a work order will be generated to facilitate the process.


PLEASE DO NOT place these items in hallways or storage rooms while awaiting removal. Doing so may result in safety violations. These items must remain in their current locations until University Porters remove them.

If you require prompt removal of an item due to the arrival of another item, please provide us with the date by which you need the item removed. If there is no rush, you can leave it blank and we will process the item within two weeks. Please note that in most cases, the item will be removed in less than two weeks.
