Army Surplus Warehouse was started over 30 years ago by my wife and I, Dana and Cheryl. When we first started I ordered my first order of surplus from a company in Denver, Colorado. The order consisted of 600 pair of brown shoe laces, some old army coolers, and some one-piece rubber suits. I worked as a mechanic for the Anaconda Mining Co. in Butte, Montana. I would take the shoe laces to work with me and sell them to the miners and mechanics. I sold the coolers to hunting outfitters to store meat in. One thing lead to another and I started selling government surplus in the kitchen of an old house we had. I would work grave yard shift from 12:00 A.M. to 8:00 A.M. and then go home and sell surplus to 4:00 p.m.. I did this for about a year and finally decided I should be able to make it in a little store with my wife. We worked a lot of long hard days for years and thanks to my wonderful wife for helping me through everything we now have a very large surplus store. We try to stay with genuine surplus as much as possible. We have been on the internet now for about 6 years. My son Jake and daughter Sara, have been running the website and mail order for us and plan to continue on with our reputation of excellence in service and quality.
We conduct all our business with honor and honesty because it always pays off in the end.
Thank You,
Dana & Cheryl Collins, Owners |
