Donation Guidelines

Chemicals and Reagents

BioLink Depot does not accept any chemicals or reagents.  Please ensure they are not included in your donation of supplies and equipment.  If chemicals or reagents are included in your donation, we will attempt to contact you and ask you to remove them from our premises within 48 hours.  If they are not removed, we will bill your company a minimum of $500 for disposal.

Equipment

Please ensure donated equipment is decontaminated and in working condition.  In some instances, BioLink Depot can accept and recycle broken equipment.  Please inquire in advance before donating broken equipment.

Students who have opportunities to freely explore and experiment with ideas and tools are more prepared to learn inside and outside of school.
