Surplus Property is a part of the 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, sales, or online. A completed Form27 must accompany all items.
The UMSL Surplus Property Warehouse is located at the JC Penney Dock. This location is where all surplus property is stored after it is picked up from campus departments. Public sales of surplus property are held at this location. Viewing of surplus items is available to departments by appointments.
Who Can Purchase from Surplus Property?
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 sales. Departments wishing to purchase items from the Surplus Property warehouse or from a Surplus Property public auction/sale, should complete the University of Missouri Internal Order Form(UM48). Surplused property and equipment from other Mid-Missouri government agencies and educational institutions can only be purchased at public auctions / sales.
