About the University Storage Warehouse

• The warehouse provides low cost, convenient storage.
• Open to all departments.
• Records storage, bulk storage, rack storage, and enclosed vault storage are all available.
• Pick up and delivery to and from your site will be available for a small, additional charge. You just alert our management team, Advance Moving, and the item you want is brought to you (no climbing over cartons in tight storage areas).  If you don't want to use the delivery service, the facility has convenient hours of operation and Advance will have the items available for retrieval with only a few hours advance notice, or you may retrieve them yourself simply by stopping by their office and obtaining a key.  No climbing over cartons in tight storage areas.
• All items are catalogued and inventoried with computerized destroy dates.
• The warehouse is located just past the intersection of Route 13 and Hanshaw Road, near the NYS Armory.

Billing

Billing is done quarterly. Adjustments will be made to reflect the actual amount of bins or vaults that you have had during that period. Billing dates are January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1.

Tenants will be billed individually by J.C. Leasing for their monthly rental. Keep in mind that this is a bulk storage facility. Your storage is rated by bins, vaults, or floor space (largest items only). You will be billed for the amount of bins, vaults or floor space that you have stored at the warehouse.

Each Cornell department will process the billing for payment like any other statement (voucher to Accounts Payable). Please use a Payables Voucher – The Object Code is 6320, and add the language “Original Lease on file at CU Real Estate Dept.” on the bottom of the voucher. Billing is done quarterly. If under $500.00, you may pay the bill with your procurement card.

If your account is more than fifteen (15) days past due, a $10.00 late charge will be assessed.

For any services provided such as moving materials to the warehouse, warehouse labor or delivery, Advance Moving Company provide a quote prior to providing the service.  Upon completion, these charges will be debited to your Cornell University procurement card.
