Request surplus pickup for furniture, equipment, and shredding

Surplus Pickup Request Form

Be sure to check with everyone in your school who may have surplus for pickup (media center, building services, etc.). Note that requests may only be submitted by an administrator, administrative secretary, building service manager, business administrator or financial specialist.

Shredding is picked up regularly at schools during the summer months, according to the Summer Surplus Pickup Schedule. During the school year, you can use this form for shredding only, or include your shredding pickup request with a comprehensive Surplus Pickup Request form.

Non-school-based offices and schools with need for a special pickup for shredding should complete this form.

Boxes of papers for shredding should not exceed 50 lbs.

Mark all sides of each box with "TO BE SHREDDED" and secure the lid with packing tape. DMM will pick up the boxes as time allows, or on a surplus pickup dat
