FAR and DFARS › DFARS Part 252: Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses › Subpart 252.2

DFARS 252.237-7018 Special definitions of Government property.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This clause defines how articles given to the contractor for laundering or dry-cleaning are treated. Such articles, including those actually owned by individual Government personnel, are Government-owned property rather than Government-furnished property. This matters because Government-owned property is not subject to the requirements of any Government-furnished property clause in the contract.

Applies to: Contractors receiving articles to be laundered or dry-cleaned under this contract

Key terms: Government-owned property · Government-furnished property · articles delivered to the Contractor · laundered or dry-cleaned
