UWSP Surplus maintains a comprehensive inventory of commonly used products and supplies by the entire campus including academic, administrative and service departments. Although Surplus maintains an online catalog, not all items inventoried are shown.
Surplus is open to the public wednesdays from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.
Please check the auctions listed on our inventory page for items we are currently selling online through auction agency. Not all of our inventory is placed on auction. Our inventory varies weekly so be sure to check back often.
This site only shows a small portion of what is available at the Surplus Store. Make sure to stop in each week to see the entire inventory.
What type of work does Surplus Property handle?
- The student workers employed by Surplus are an integral part of daily operations. Student staff is responsible for organizing orders prior to delivery and for delivering orders to campus destinations. They are a vital asset to Surplus.
- The UWSP Surplus Property operational philosophy includes JIT (Just-In-Time) purchasing for less frequently used items and electronically controlled inventories for items having more frequent use histories.
- Maintenance items removed from Surplus by Facility Services staff are electronically scanned and linked to an associated work order via the Facility Services CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System).
- The UWSP Surplus Store manages approximately 2778 unique stock items. The actual unit count for all of these products equals over 70,000 units.
- To assure the Surplus Store inventory meets the needs of campus customers, it is checked annually and minimum/maximum stocking levels adjusted accordingly. Items that have no circulation during this period are systematically eliminated from stock.
- To assure inventory & accounting accuracy, Surplus Store utilizes bar code and scanning for all items in inventory and conducts a minimum of one physical inventory reconciliation annually.
- In most cases, if items are available via state contract, Surplus Store is bound to purchase the item from the contract provider (rare exceptions may apply). If items are not available via state contract, Surplus Store staff will competitively quote the items to assure best pricing is obtained.
