Surplus property policies to change Jan. 5

UNL policies and procedures on surplus property will go into effect Jan. 5. The changes come after input from campus and a review of options to make inventory services more cost effective.

The new policies include:

  • UNL departments will continue to have the first opportunity to select items from surplus inventory.

  • Surplus items will be we offered at competitive prices.

  • Items will only be tagged “Sold” and/or held for future pick-up when a departmental cost center is provided.

  • Selected items will be billed to the cost center specified for all purchased items. There will be a 48-hour return period, after which billings will be processed.

Inventory Services will continue to provide surplus items to UNL departments at substantial discounts compared to buying new.
