Who is Eligible to Use This Service?

Faculty

Staff

Students

Campus Visitors (without a NetID)

Members of the public planning an event in a UW building can request this service.

How Early Should I Request?

Submit your request at least 2 weeks prior to your event. We cannot guarantee service for requests received less than 2 weeks prior to an event.

Cost

Cost is the same for UW affiliates and public customers. This includes hourly labor costs for delivery, service, removal and disposal. To clarify, that means you’re charged for how long it takes our crews to complete the work order, not just for the duration of your event.

The minimum charge is $24. There is an additional weekend charge of $34 for events occurring between Friday afternoon and Sunday evening. (Effective July 1, 2019, the additional weekend charge will increase to $44.)

An estimate of total charges can be provided upon request.
