Procedures for the Physical Disposal of Equipment
Purpose
To establish a recommended uniform procedure for physically disposing of assets that are no longer serviceable or needed by your school or department and recover as much of its market value as possible. Also to inform the NU community of various issues that need to be addressed when disposing university assets.
Scope
This procedure applies to the physical disposition of assets common to all departments and schools such as computers, office equipment and furniture.
General
All purchased and acquired assets have a useful life and value. When the asset’s usefulness warrants disposal from a department or school, the asset may have value to other departments or schools, or individuals within the NU community. Once approval for disposal of assets is obtained from your dean, chairperson, director or department administrator, the recommended uniform procedure shall be as follows:
Surplus Property Exchange Program of Procurement and Payment Services
The purpose of the web site is to provide a common forum for the exchange of NU surplus property. Assets shall be offered to other departments and schools on the established Purchasing Resource Services Surplus Property Exchange Program for a recommended minimum of 30 days. Any department or school that has an interest in the asset may directly contact the offering department or school who will provide a more detailed description, location and availability. At that time, interested parties can place a bid or negotiate a sales price. If the asset is not sold during the recommended 30 days, interested faculty, staff or students may bid on the asset for personal use during a recommended 15-day period. Any proceeds shall be credited to the offering department or school using account 40650.
If after the recommended 45 days that the item is listed on the , the asset hasn't been sold, consider contacting a local charity that accepts equipment donations.
