How to Box Your Content
- Box content and Transfer forms are provided (information and links below).
- When boxing records, complete a Box Content Form with as much detail as possible about the records in each box and place it in the box.
- Complete a Transmittal Form for each batch of boxes sent for storage, University Archives, or other new location.
- Provide a disposition date in compliance with the retention schedule (AD35).
- Avoid mixing records with different disposition dates.
Transferring Boxes to the Records Center
Free recycled boxes are available for Records Center storage only and can be picked up at University Park or transported via Housing and Food Services delivery truck for no charge. Since Housing and Food Services does not operate on every closing campus, it may be advisable to coordinate group requests for boxes with neighboring campuses. Boxes can also be shipped via campus mail though the receiving unit will need to cover shipping costs.
