Surplus Stores
Once an item is received at Surplus Stores,
it is made available to other WSU departments,
government agencies, schools and non-profit
organizations. Ultimately, the goal of Surplus Stores is to
extend the useful life of items by
collecting and reselling them. Utilizing the services of Surplus
Stores is a cost-effective option for customers
that have limited budgets or don't necessarily need
new equipment to meet their needs. If an item is
not needed on campus other agencies and nonprofit
organizations will be contacted and then the item
will be sold to the public. Information on how to prepare an item for resale
through Surplus Stores is available online in
the
Business Policies and Procedures Manual, Chapter
20.76. A
Surplus Property Report must be completed for
each item with an inventory number. Similar non inventoried items(i.e. "6 keybords" or "3 boxes of misc. office supplies") can be combined on the same form. Once the Surplus Property Report is completed, the items can
be delivered to Surplus Stores (except for the
week of our public sales). For big and heavy items,
please contact Heavy Equipment (5-9088) to arrange
for a pickup. Surplus Stores will pick up items
that can be handled by one person or
with the assistance of your staff.
Surplus Disposal Information
WSU Surplus Stores is the only authorized department to dispose of
WSU and departmental property. University property is defined as items that have a current inventory
number, items without an inventory number and
consumable supplies.
Goals
To ensure the public has fair access to surplus, Surplus Stores advertises all items that
are sold to the public. At the public sales items are either sold at
auction or on a first-come, first-serve basis.
