The Facilities Management department’s Zero Waste Office is pleased to announce the launch of a new and improved Campus Surplus Furniture Portal where faculty and staff may request and donate furniture for their workspaces.ÌýÌýThe ability to redistribute furniture within campus allows us to make strides towards American University’s zero-waste goals as well as reduce expenses.ÌýÌý  

To select or request items for your workspaces and to post items you may want to donate, simply visit the  where available furniture will be listed and complete the Furniture Request or Surplus Donation forms.ÌýÌýThere is no cost for the items in the surplus system, although there may be a charge if assembly is required.ÌýÌý  

You also may request items not listed in the inventory.ÌýÌýIf an item becomes available, Support Services staff will fulfill your requests prior to entering it to the available inventory list. Please note that adding an item does not guarantee that it will be requested, and similarly, requesting an item does not guarantee its availability.ÌýÌý If you need an item of furniture removed immediately, submit a 2fix request.ÌýÌý
