Irving ISD Warehouse

Welcome to the Warehouse & Transportation department. On this page you will find a variety of information pertaining to our warehousing operation; please refer to the next tab for information regarding bus transportation through our vendor, Dallas County Schools.

We’re fortunate to have a warehouse from which to provide varied services and products to our many campus sites. This 40,500 square foot facility is located within our Facilities Services building at 3620 Valley View Lane, and houses items ranging from pencils to paper goods, and from breakfast foods to parts and supplies. Nearly all that is needed to educate 33,000 students and equip 4,000 employees can be found in our warehouse.

Take your time visiting our site. You’ll find links, below, which further describe how our department operates and how we might provide service for your specific need. Should you have questions or comments, please feel free to contact our Warehouse and Transportation manager, John Walker, at 972-261-5132 or jwalker@irvingisd.net.
