We are pleased to announce that the Public Store is reopening for in-person shopping! We're so excited to open our doors to the community again, and we invite you to come see what's on offer.

Please note: our store hours are changing. We are now open Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. We receive new items every day, so inventory is always changing. If you'd like to get a preview of new items, you can sign up for our newsletter. Come by to see what bargains are in stock this week!     

UW Surplus takes all unwanted items from all UW departments and medical facilities. Our objective is to reuse, repurpose, or recycle as many items as possible to lessen the University’s climate impact on both purchasing and disposal. Items are resold through a retail store and live and online auctions.
