IT Smart Lockers: Equipment Drop-off

What are IT Smart Lockers?

Columbus State IT equipment can be returned using contact-free smart lockers located in the basement of Union Hall. Employees can drop off broken or unneeded equipment or return equipment when an employee is leaving the College.

Smart lockers can also be used to pickup IT Equipment. For detailed instructions, review the following article: IT Smart Lockers- Equipment Pickup

Schedule your equipment return

  1. Schedule an equipment drop off/return by contacting the IT Support Center by phone, email, or online support ticket.
    (For support hours and contact information, see cscc.edu/ithelp.

  2. Wait for an email notification: This email will contain your 5-digit passcode for the Smart lockers in UN-006. You will need this email to drop off IT equipment.
  • Note: The email will have the [EXTERNAL] warning because the email is coming from a Smiota email address, not cscc.edu. It will look similar to this:

Text from the email header: "support@smiota.com" , "[External] A new passcode is generated for you to ..."

  1. Bring your employee badge to campus with you as it will be needed to gain access to the building and room

On-campus: Accessing UN-006

  • You may park your vehicle in a reserved space in lot 34, adjacent to Union (UN) and Delaware Halls (DE) (see this campus map for reference). Marked spaces will be on the west side of the lot closest to Union Hall. Maximum parking duration is 30 minutes.
  • Enter Union Hall via the south tower entrance (double sliding door across from TL). UN-006 is straight down this hallway on the right. 
     
  • Hold your badge near the proximity reader to unlock the door. The light on the reader will turn green when unlocked.
    NoteYour badge must have a black proximity sticker (like a small puck) for the reader to work.
     
  • If you have trouble opening the door, please contact the CSCC Police Department at 614-287-2525 to gain access to the room.
     
  • The smart lockers are available at various heights and are assigned randomly to users.
