If you see a pop-up notification on a Windows-based device that isn't your primary work computer, please make arrangements to properly salvage the device. Talk to your manager, supervisor, or budget manager to about hardware salvage. Either store the device in a secured location until the salvage event or contact your supervisor or budget manager about a designated secured storage location for your department, college, or office. Procurement holds salvage events in April and October and works with a vendor that repurposes DePaul computers and other hardware and accessories for discounted resale in the Chicago community. Devices are responsibly recycled and reused whenever possible. Reach out to procurement@depaul.edu with any questions.

DePaul employees are required to turn old computers into Procurement Services. Old computers will no longer be functional, and it's important for data security to follow the proper salvage procedures. Please reach out to your office, school, or department's administrators or your manager. Most areas of the university have a budget manager or administrator that will have instructions for properly disposing of all computers.
Devices are disposed of by Procurement Services or authorized service providers in accordance with the Salvage of University-Owned Equipment policy. Users are required to return the devices to Procurement Services or authorized service providers when they are no longer needed or eligible for use. Devices are erased by Procurement Services or authorized service providers before disposal. Users are required to back up any personal or important data on the devices before returning them for salvage. Once you are ready to turn in your old computer, please review the salvage policy linked above.
