All items are sold "as-is, where-is" with no warranties, expressed or implied. The opportunity to inspect items is provided exclusively prior to the auction close. Once a bid is won, the sale is final. We strongly encourage bidders to schedule an inspection to verify condition, as refunds will not be issued for defects discovered after the auction ends. To schedule an appointment, email reuse@umn.edu. Payments Credit Cards only. We do not accept cash or checks. Payment must be processed in full at the time of pick-up. Payment is done in person or over the phone. Removal Buyers must schedule a removal appointment through the K-BID dashboard. All items must be paid for and removed by Saturday, April 11th, 2026 by 4:00 PM CDT. Failure to remove items by the deadline may result in forfeiture of the item without refund. Removal Logistics The University of Minnesota ReUse Warehouse provides access to a commercial-height loading dock (with leveler), a grade-level dock, and on-site forklifts. While standard loading assistance is typically included, we reserve the right to assess a labor fee of $75 per hour for any removals requiring excessive time, specialized handling, or where the buyer arrives unprepared. Potential charges for complex lots will be noted in the description whenever possible. Labor: Buyers are responsible for bringing an appropriate vehicle and any labor required for loading. Assistance: Our staff can provide forklift assistance for items of any weight; however, we can only provide hand-loading assistance for items weighing under 100 lbs. Questions: Please email reuse@umn.edu regarding specific load-out requirements. Shipping Shipping is the sole responsibility and expense of the buyer. Buyers must coordinate directly with their preferred carrier. The ReUse Center must be notified in advance of any scheduled carrier pick-ups or special requirements. Please refer to the Shipping Tab for further details.

The University of Minnesota ReUse Program diverts usable materials from the campus waste stream by collecting surplus items from over 250 buildings. These materials are evaluated at the ReUse Warehouse and either repurposed by University departments or made available for public purchase, helping to reduce waste and promote sustainability across the Twin Cities Campus.
