Central receiving warehouse staff receives the majority of bulk campus deliveries at its loading docks off Plains Road, breaks them down, and delivers these goods to the appropriate departments on campus. They provide the material support for all special events and handle a broad range of work orders. This also includes shredding of confidential documents.

Receiving serves as the storage facility for surplus office furniture, made available to all departments as needed on campus.

Equipment disposals are processed through this facility by contacting the secretary listed below BEFORE any transaction is made. For disposal of Federal items (with a yellow tag accompanying the URI#) click on the Federal Property page for instructions.
