黑料网 Surplus
黑料网 has a program for managing and controlling its physical inventory. Our mission is to efficiently and effectively facilitate the pick-up, processing, redistribution and sale of surplus equipment generated by the university.
We work hand in hand with our community to efficiently remove surplus equipment from campus buildings.
