Moving and clearing up

Every time a University Unit relocates, there are a number of things worth remembering.

Have surplus furniture collected for reuse free of charge

During relocations or cleanups, there may be surplus furniture that can be reused elsewhere in the organization, sold, or donated. If you have surplus furniture that Campus Service deems suitable for reuse, you can have it collected free of charge. However, a fee may apply if the task is very complex or extensive. Please send a description and photos via the DTU Service Portal.

Order extra containers for waste sorting

During relocations and cleanups, larger amounts of materials and waste often occur. To ensure proper sorting, you can borrow extra waste containers for recyclable fractions and residual waste. Contact Campus Service at least one week before the relocation or cleanup day to make arrangements, and specify which waste types you need extra containers for.

Remember to instruct employees on how to sort their waste.

Fire Prevention

During relocations and cleanups, it is important to pay attention to the temporary placement of moving goods or waste. Escape routes and stairways must remain clear to maintain the required width and prevent an increase in fire load.

In general, please refer to DTU’s fire safety rules, which are posted on the red emergency boards.
