Custodians perform routine cleaning primarily during the night shift. This is supplemented by our day porters.

Floor care such as carpet cleaning and stripping and waxing are scheduled on weekends, holidays and periodically during the week if time allows. Other custodial needs are Special Projects. This covers special event needs, such as moving and setting up of tables and chairs, and it also covers basic moving services on campuses. Basic moving needs (i.e., furniture, transfers, and disposals) are completed by filling out the forms Equipment Transfer and Equipment Disposal and submitting them to the Business Office for processing. Special Event setup requests should be completed by submitting the Event Setup Work Order. Please contact your departmental lead for assistance with this form. Work Orders will be scheduled by the Custodial Superintendent, who may call to verify the request. It will then be added to the daily schedule.
