Welcome to Surplus & Salvage


The University Surplus and Salvage Department (Surplus) manages and sells surplus property. Vehicles and high-value items can be sold through online auctions or bids. Surplus also supports campus sustainability by processing metals, e-waste and end-of-life property for recycling and disposal according to University of Utah guidelines.

Priority for Education and Government
Federal and state agencies, university departments and public education agencies can purchase surplus property as soon as it is available in the surplus warehouse. Only direct government payment methods are accepted—cash and personal funds are not allowed.
Public Sale of Surplus Property
Surplus property is available for purchase by the public, university employees and students starting on the public sale date listed on the item. Most items go through a fifteen-day government surplus cycle.
