Surplus property auctions provide the general public an opportunity to purchase quality
goods at reduced prices and enable the state to recoup a portion of its initial investment.
Miscellaneous property and vehicle auctions generated more than $3.9 million during fiscal
year 2013.
Public auctions are the last step in the state’s surplus program. State agencies declare
property as surplus because it is either damaged or at the end of its life cycle for government
use. In addition, property may include items seized by law enforcement officials as well as
items contributed by airline passengers. The property is then made available to other state
agencies, state higher education facilities, tax-supported agencies, municipal corporations
and other political subdivisions of the state, including public schools. Remaining property is
sold at the public auctions.
