Does the institution have a surplus department or formal office supplies exchange program that facilitates reuse of materials?:
Yes

A brief description of the program:

- PCC has an extensive material surplus property department manged under our Central Distribution Services. This department is responsible for gathering items across the district that are to be donated, recycled, re-sold and reused. Any department can request items be picked up by the surplus properties team via an internal on-line request form. The items that are picked up are typically the larger, unwanted college supplies that would otherwise be land-filled. These item include, but are not limited to automobiles, computer electronics, all types of office furniture, aviation equipment, fire trucks, grounds maintenance machinery, AV equipment, and others. PCC also just joined Public Surplus, a website where surplus items can be bid on and sold to the public.
