History

In the early 1920s, after World War I, Thomas P. Scanlan saw a demand for a service that would connect owners of industrial machines to would-be buyers. He went door to door down “manufacturers row” in Chicago (Randolph Street in the West Loop) to find companies that had machinery for sale. In 1924, the first edition of the Surplus Record catalog was published, which had 5,000 machinery and equipment listings. With the means to market machines across the country, more and more companies began turning to Surplus Record for help selling their surplus equipment. Today, Surplus Record has well over 100,000 listings across 2,000+ categories within the industrial world and continues to expand into new categories each year.
