Tax-exempt purchasing for eligible institutions
Schools and other eligible organizations may request tax-exempt purchasing with BulkSupply.com after establishing an account and submitting the appropriate documents for review.
How to request tax-exempt status
- Establish a BulkSupply.com customer account. You can also send a school account request on this website, which our team reviews manually.
- Contact our U.S.-based customer service team. Ask for instructions on submitting your school's exemption documentation.
- Provide documentation for review. Required forms and acceptance depend on the relevant jurisdiction and transaction.
- Wait for confirmation. Tax-exempt status is not activated automatically when you submit an account request or document.
What if our school needs to order before setup is complete?
BulkSupply.com's published policy allows eligible customers to place an order using normal checkout and contact customer service afterward. When tax-exempt documentation is reviewed and approved, eligible sales tax can be refunded according to the policy.
Purchase orders are reviewed separately
Having tax-exempt status does not automatically mean the account has open-term PO or Net 30 privileges. Purchase orders and payment terms are subject to a separate approval process and the published minimum order requirements.
For help call (800) 847-6614, Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm Central, or use the school purchasing contact form.
