Surplus requests
Request surplus furniture
Request Surplus Furniture Our surplus inventory of gently used furniture comes from our schools and is constantly changing. We deliver to you automatically should the items requested become available. Requests are kept on file for one calendar year. Please note this form is not to be used for replacement of old furniture
Request surplus pickup for furniture, equipment, and shredding
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 date

Prepare for your surplus pickup: Best Practices
Have all items ready in one location on the first floor.
Make sure the building service manager (BSM) knows the location of all surplus materials. The BSM is our contact person when the drivers arrive for pickup.
Media Center and 10-month staff should inform the BSM about any surplus materials in other locations.
Please limit the weight of boxes to 100 lbs. or less.
