Equipment Disposal Form

Complete the form below if university-owned capital equipment is sold, transferred or disposed of. Capital equipment has a minimum cost of $5,000 and a useful life of one year or more. Please note, anytime you dispose of tagged equipment, complete the form since the original definition of capital equipment before 9/1/95 included a minimum cost of $500. This form does not grant approval to dispose of equipment, it only serves to update the inventory database. You should obtain, and keep on file, written approval from your dean, chairperson or department administrator to remove capital equipment, however you don't need the approval of the university's Equipment Inventory Coordinator. See Disposal Procedure Guidelines for more information.

Use the Bill of Sale form or the Indemnification Agreement when selling or donating University-owned equipment. Both forms are PDF files. You'll need to download Adobe Acrobat Reader to read PDF files.
