The purpose of the Excess Catalog is to make surplus inventory available to departments, to help the University save money, by recycling items back onto campus.

If you find an item in the new Excess Catalog, simply select the item, by adding it to the cart and then submit your request.

Please verify that your shipping information on your Requisition is correct, so the item is delivered to the correct location.  For any additional information regarding the item, please feel free to add comments or internal notes about the delivery.

The Excess Catalog will be updated weekly and every effort will be made by Purchasing Services to ensure the accuracy of this catalog.
