Requesting Items

Before purchasing new materials, check the Virtual Warehouse by going to the Available/Wanted List (What's on the Virtual Warehouse?).  All items in the Virtual Warehouse are FREE to City departments!  Once you have found what you need, follow the instructions below.  Items are issued on a “first come, first served” basis.

  1. FAX or e-mail a completed Virtual Warehouse Request  form to the Virtual Warehouse (VW) Associate.
  2. The VW Associate will then authorize the transfer of the items and notify both the requesting and releasing department contacts.  
  3. The two department contacts will coordinate transfer of the items.  It is the responsibility of the requesting department to pick-up the items.
  4. Once the requesting department is in possession of the items, the contact person must confirm receipt of the items to the VW Associate.
