Surplus Property

Notice

This web site is only for disposal/scrap requests of non-electronic equipment (furniture, supplies, vehicles, etc.). For ALL electronic equipment (computers, printers, audio visual, etc.) go to the Safe Electronic Equipment Disposal Form on the IT Security website, https://remedy.unh.edu/unhit/surplus/.

The Purchasing Office is responsible for ensuring the proper disposal of University owned equipment, supplies or materials that have been declared surplus property. Property Control is responsible for maintaining the Property Control System which maintains records on all USNH equipment. Equipment which was purchased with grant or contract funds, or that may be listed as capital equipment (see: http://finadmin.usnh.edu/pol_proc/chapter_11/pro11_020.html ) requires special handling through Property Control.

Protecting University Information During Information Technology (IT) Equipment Transfer and Disposal

Equipment Transfer Between University Employees and Organizations for University Use

University IT equipment, including but not limited to servers, printers, personal computers, cell phones, PDAs, removable data storage devices, etc. must be wiped according to university policy prior to transfer. Details of this requirement are documented in the System Access Policy Minimum Compliance document on Blackboard under "IT Policy & Security" section in the "UNH Faculty and Staff" organization.

IT Equipment Resale, Disposal and Recycling

Selling university owned IT equipment or transferring the equipment to non-university persons or organizations is not allowed for the following reasons:
- Administrative overhead and risk to university information exceed any benefits of such sales or transfer
- University software licenses are not transferable for private use
- Selling equipment that was purchased with university funds or under an academic discount program for private use is not appropriate

UNH provides IT equipment disposal, along with the appropriate information wiping and recycling services through its Safe Electronic Equipment Disposal (SEED) program.

For ALL electronic equipment (computers, printers, audio visual, etc.) please go to the Safe Electronic Equipment Disposal Form on the IT Security website. For further information and instructions, as well as a list of accepted equipment, visit The Safe Electronic Equipment Disposal website (SEED).

If you have any questions pertaining to your surplus needs, please send email to Surplus.Request@usnh.edu.

We expressly reserve the right to reject any and all offers and/or select the offer we consider to be in the best interest of the USNH, without penalty.
