Surplus Property is a part of MU Procurement Services department that is responsible for the disposal, re-distribution, and/or sale of used equipment/property that the University of Missouri and other Mid-Missouri government agencies and educational institutions no longer use. The sale of this equipment is handled through public auctions or sold on e-Bay. A completed Form27 must accompany all items. If items are to be sold through the online auction service, then a Form27 along with the additonal description form will need to be completed and accompany the equipment. Surplus Property offers pick-up services, and can receive items at it's warehouse location during normal working hours, except during the week (Monday - Friday) of the public auction.
Regular business hours:
Monday through Friday
7:30 A.M. until 4:30 P.M.*
All University of Missouri property and equipment at the Surplus Property warehouse is available to other University of Missouri departments at reasonable prices, and may be purchased up to the close of business on the Friday prior to the Wednesday public auction. Departments wishing to purchase items from the Surplus Property warehouse, or from a Surplus Property public auction should complete the University of Missouri Internal Order Form(UM48). This form replaces the use of an interdepartmental order form. Surplused property and equipment from other Mid-Missouri government agencies and educational institutions can only be purchased at public auctions.
Public auctions are held by Surplus Property every three(3) to four(4) weeks (usually on Wednesdays), and start promptly at 10:00am. Auctions are held at the Surplus Property warehouse, where the public and departments may bid on items. Auction emails are sent approximately two(2) weeks prior to the public auction. If you don't have an email address or wish to be included on the mailing list, please contact Frances Fisher.
