Prepare a surplus-material trade

Collect the facts a receiving manufacturer needs before discussing the order. These resources explain listing preparation and the evidence behind a batch.

Listing-readiness checklist

Work through identity, quantity, condition, documents and collection details before preparing a listing.

Understand the documents

Distinguish the evidence that belongs to a site, a product or one particular batch.

Choose a selling route

Compare internal reuse, peer marketplaces, brokers and other routes against the material you actually hold.

Procurement glossary

Read the terms used on a listing, including batch references, storage conditions, specifications and ex-works collection.

A checklist helps prepare a conversation; it does not certify a material or replace your own quality assessment. Ready to list? See how selling surplus on Surply works.
