Research assets
Before disposing of research assets, please review the Research asset management procedure.
Refrigerated units
Please submit a universal waste disposal request in to have your refrigerated unit picked up. A FOAPAL is required to cover the cost of freon removal. All requests are evaluated on a case-by-case basis and a quote will be sent to you prior to scheduling the pick-up. For large units (e.g. -80 freezer, deli fridges, heavy lab equipment), please include the following information:
- Size of unit
- Pictures of the unit
- Room number where the unit is stored
- Confirm that the unit can be moved outside of the lab and outside of the building easily (through doors, corridors, etc.)
- Approximate weight of the unit
Non-refrigerated units
You also need to submit a universal waste disposal request in to arrange the pickup of your non-refrigerated laboratory equipment. A FOAPAL is not required for these requests. Please include the following information for large material:
- Size of unit
- Pictures of the unit
- Room number where the unit is stored
- Confirm that the unit can be moved outside of the lab and outside of the building easily (through doors, corridors, etc.)
- Approximate weight of the unit
