The state’s Surplus Property Division, part of the Alabama

begins at 8 a.m. and continues until the last item is

auctioned.

Along with office equipment and vehicles, the items for auction

include medical equipment, golf carts, boats, lawn equipment and

much more.

In addition to property no longer used by state and federal

unclaimed property from several airports in the

Southeast.

To bid on the items, you will need a photo ID and social security

The items are available for on-site inspection on Monday and

Tuesday from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Public auctions are held three times a year, but surplused items

agencies and qualified nonprofit

organizations.
