Exemplary service and very user friendly. We recently purchased a modular office. It was correctly configured, executed customization, and ready as committed. The sales team did a great job processing the order very clearly to ensure meeting our needs. The shipping dept also accommodated our special requests. Finally, we relied on American to install the unit in our building. The install team was on time, very professional, and did a great job. We appreciate that they did not leave until they were sure we were completely satisfied. I highly recommend American Surplus.

A winning team.
For over a decade, I have relied upon American Surplus to assist me with my ever-changing warehousing needs. John Celona is the consummate sales professional who readily gives his personal attention to detail to all of my orders. His expertise and pleasant demeanor (and that of his support staff) are key factors as to why I continue doing business with American Surplus. This, coupled with their diverse and competitively priced inventory makes the team at American Surplus a force to be reckoned with in the warehouse supply industry.
