A couple of times per year, Central Washington University (CWU) in Ellensburg is required by law to maximize the use of all of their assets and, when they have no further use for them, make an effort to maximize returns on their sale as they are not allowed to give surplus property away. What does it mean for you? SAVING MONEY!


CWU is providing three full days to come and inspect the merchandise in person at the surplus warehouse (located at 14th & ‘B’ St. in Ellensburg). Perspective buyers are invited to view and place a bid on desired items this Thursday (July 8) and Friday (July 9) between 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. A Saturday viewing will be conducted July 10 from 9:00 a.m. to 3 p.m. if you cannot make it during the week.

Looking at past auction winners, it is easy to see that there are some tremendous deals to be had!
