Request Survey for Disposal/Campus Surplus

To streamline the disposal process, ITS has partnered with property and surplus to ensure all computers will be wiped of any Cal Poly data and properly removed from our systems once they arrive at campus surplus. For computers needing disposal, your department will need to:

  1. Submit the “Request for Survey” form found on the Property-Accounting site: https://afd.calpoly.edu/accounting-reporting/forms

If there is more than one asset, please survey all assets on one form.

  1. Once completed, “the Requester” will receive an email confirmation.

  2. The Requester will find the confirmation as a “Disposal Bill of Lading” in their completed file within Adobe Sign.

  3. Print that document, collect all assets in the request, then contact Surplus and schedule a time for pickup.
