Free Student Desks - All Gone


We have given all of the Student Desks away.  If you are still looking for a good desk we have a large selection of other desks that start as low as $10.
When students move out, professors retire, offices are refurnished, or anything on campus becomes unwanted, it ends up at the MSU Surplus Store.
Every summer, while most of the students are gone, residence halls usually get rid of an abundance of dorm room furniture. This is year is no exception, and the MSU Surplus Store has a few too many student desks sitting around—about 1,500 too many, actually.
The varnished-wood desks cannot be made into mulch, and they would be dangerous to burn, so, instead of dumping them to the landfill, the MSU Surplus Store has decided to give them away to the public.
Free desks will be available during normal sale hours, from 7:30am to 5:30pm on Tuesdays and 7:30am to 3:30pm on Fridays, until they are gone. Other dorm room furniture, such as dressers and beds, will be available for sale.
Customers are allowed to take as many desks as they can safely transport. Holds will not be allowed. Contact the MSU Surplus Store & Recycling Center at (517) 355-1723, surpluss@msu.edu or visit www.msusurplusstore.com if you have questions.
