Policies

Warehouse filled with stacks of chairs, cardboard boxes, and various used office equipment.

 

While our office strives to give the Tulane community the best experience imaginable, there are standards we must enforce for the safety of all. See our policies below:

  1. We require all visitors to wear closed-toe shoes while browsing the surplus area.
  2. For security reasons, we do not allow for unaccompanied walk-throughs nor unscheduled visitation. Please request an appointment via emails.
  3. If picking up approved claimed property without the use of Campus Services, please bring enough manpower and proper PPE, including gloves and eye protection.
  4. We offer retired warehouse property primarily to recognized Tulane departments only and occasionally, to a non-profit and/or educational institution outside of Tulane University, should we experience overstock.
  5. As suppliers of used property, we do not guarantee longevity, issue warranties, nor make repairs on items claimed. All items are "As-Is" and transactions are final.
  6. Surplus shopping days and pickups will be limited to Tuesdays and Thursdays only.
  7. We hold claimed property for up to 10 days after selection. If not picked up by day 10, the claimed property will be made available for another department to claim.
