Revenue Sharing

UW-Madison Departments and government agencies will be credited for the sale of items sold through SWAP according to the standard SWAP reimbursement sharing rate. See the SWAP Revenue Sharing Rate document for details.

Surplus Equipment Evaluation Form

SWAP has created a form to assist us in accurately appraising and reselling your department's surplus property.  We are requesting that that items of value ($75 or more) be accompanied by a Surplus Equipment Evaluation form. Please fill out the form, print a copy, and tape it to each item of value greater than $75.

This optional form will assist SWAP personnel with assessing resale value of your items. It will also help to increase your department's chance of receiving maximum sales credits.

Tips for Increasing Your Chance of Receiving Credit

• Fill out a Surplus Equipment Evaluation Form and tape to each item of value greater than $75.00.
• Clean the equipment.
• Unbolt TVs and media players from A/V carts.
• Provide key and combination to all safes, locks, and doors.
• Identify items that should be kept and sold together.
• Include necessary power supplies and manuals.
• If containing radioactive source or materials or hazardous liquids, powders, or solids, have the item checked by Safety and tape "Cleared by Safety" form on the equipment.
• Keep equipment as intact as possible.
