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 (March 25) and Friday (March 26) between 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. A Saturday viewing will be conducted March 27th 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!

If you plan to attend the viewing, CWU reminds you that facemasks are required. If you are disabled, you can call ahead and contact Jason Bakeman at (509) 963-2157 tomake special arrangements. They ask that attendees be patient and expect to have to wait as they are able to only allow no more than 40 people inside the warehouse at any given time.

If you find something of interest and want to place a bid, you must log-on to PublicSurplus.com.

All bids have to be placed no later than Monday, March 29th before 8:00 a.m.
