Offices may transfer records for storage to the University Records Center. We offer secure storage along with record/document retrieval within 48 hours.
To send records for storage:
- Purchase required banker boxes from Printing Services by calling 227-2457.
- Prepare your boxes for storage by following the Transfer Procedures for Records to the University Records Center.
- Fill out and submit the Record Storage Form with as much information as possible (including a full inventory of the contents of each box). Each box must have its own inventory sheet placed inside the box as well. Please note: Lengthy inventories don't fit in the form. If you encounter this issue, please attach the inventory as a Word document or e-mail the inventory file or document to managerecords@nmu.edu).
- To transfer the boxes, fill out and submit a Warehouse Services Work Request, include the number of boxes and their exact location. Allow a few days for pickup.
- We will send a confirmation email when your boxes are received by Records Management staff.
