We have an auction on PublicSurplus.com which will end on Tuesday, December 6th. It will be the last one before the Winter Break. Please take a look and see if there is anything you need for your building.

Also, just a reminder that your school needs to do their surplus paperwork and turn it in with all signatures if you want to be scheduled for pick up. Please do not delay in getting your paperwork in so that we can see how soon we can schedule our next surplus pick up.

As always, thank you for all your help and cooperation with this request.
