What do I do with furniture that was purchased with NMSU money?

1. If someone in our building may want it, you may give it to them without notifying Lauryn if there isn’t an NMSU tag. The location of items with an NMSU tag need to be tracked by Lauryn.
2. If the piece of furniture is broken/unusable or simply unwanted, leave it inside your office/lab and notify Lauryn via email or Teams.

How do I dispose of broken glass?

How do I dispose of items that will not fit in a garbage bin?
