Surplus Equipment

The City utilizes public live auctions and online auctions to dispose of surplus equipment. A live auction is normally held, during the fall season of the year. The date, location and other details of the live auction will be advertised on the City's website at the appropriate time. Additionally, on occasion, Govdeals.com is utilized to sell City assets deemed surplus, to the highest bidder, via online public auction. Anyone can register to bid on these items.
