Freight deliveries
For large freight deliveries (over 150 pounds or deliveries requiring special equipment to unload) the ordering department must inform our office, as well as Procurement Services, in advance, of your need for special arrangements.
In most cases you will need to submit a work request to secure the equipment and personnel need to accept the delivery. The work request must include the delivery date, estimated time of delivery and deliver location (room number). A department representative must be present to accept delivery and confirm condition of product. The ordering department will bear related costs.
