Lost an item at Transportation Security Administration (TSA)?
Have you had an item confiscated by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA)? Several times a year, TSA delivers confiscated knives, corkscrews, pool cues and other items prohibited from being taken on an airplane to the Enterprise Services Surplus Operations retail store.
If you had something special confiscated from you by TSA, it might be at DES Surplus Operations. If you think Surplus might have your item, please email a detailed description of the item (for example: Large red Swiss Army Knife with the initials J.Q.P engraved on the side). We cannot guarantee the return of any lost items.
