When dorms and academic buildings get face lifts, the old items don’t just disappear.
Sometimes they make their way to Goodwill. One of the places they could end up is the IU Surplus Stores, where, ultimately, they could complete their lifecycle as a centerpiece in your new home or apartment.
IU Surplus sells just about everything.
Furniture, appliances, electronics and tech gear, and even IU athletic equipment. They update their Facebook page, @IU.Surplus, almost daily with photos of their current inventory.
The retail store is located at 2931 E. 10th St., just across the highway from campus near the Cyberinfrastructure Building.
The store is open 12 to 5:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and open until 7:30 Wednesday, according to their website. Beware, cash and checks are not accepted, so you will need to bring your plastic.
