6.1.1. Returns to Central Stores

Departments may return unused items requisitioned from Central Stores, if the items were ordered in error, within 30 days of receipt of such items. Items returned are accepted at the discretion of Central Stores personnel and must be by unit of issue (no partials).

Current Central Stores items can be returned for exchange or credit, provided they are usable when returned.

To return items to Central Stores, do the following:

1. Obtain approval from Central Stores by calling 7-2700 or sending e-mail to centralstores@mtu.edu.



2. Prepare a Central Stores Requisition, indicating the item(s) to be returned and the valid University account to be credited. Ensure the account number is the same account used for the original issue.



3. Forward the completed Requisition to Central Stores with the item(s) to be returned, or make arrangements for Central Stores personnel to pick up.


NOTE: A Central Stores employee credits the proper account number for the returned item(s) using the information from the requisition.
