Surplus Materials
Surplus materials are equipment, furniture and supplies that were purchased with university funds and are no longer required. We dispose of these items through a process administered by Financial Services in conjunction with the university policies and procedures.
Surplus and obsolete material remain the property of Acadia University.
The University realizes financial and sustainability benefits by minimizing the amount of material that enters the waste stream.
Departments wishing to dispose of surplus materials should fill in the Request for Disposal of Surplus Assets form.
Internal departments and external parties interested in purchasing any items on this website are required to complete and submit a bid form. Preference will be given to internal bids over external bids.
