Guide To Federal Government Sales
How To Make Purchases Of Surplus Property
|
Developed by The General Services Administration, Washington, D.C.
When U.S. Customs confiscates an imported necklace, or the Department of Defense no longer needs a power tool, or the U.S. Marshals Srvice seizes a sports car from a drug dealer, all these items may become available for purchase by the public.
Although some surplus and forfeited items of the Federal Government are transferred to other Federal agencies or given to state and local governments, a staggering variety of items from vehicles to office equipment to real estate find their way to the public through Federal Government sales.
This revised guide is published by the U.S. General Services Administration in cooperation with 18 Federal sales programs. With informative listings from each Federal sales program combined with practical consumer tips, this guide is designed to help you identify the Federal Government agencies that sell items to the public. This guide:
- gives information about sales methods and sale locations
- describes items for sale
- lists addresses and telephone numbers for further information
- has glossary which explains the sales terminology used by Federal agencies to describe the types of property available and the methods by which it is sold, and
- provides an index of many of the items available through these sales programs
Use this guide to contact the appropriate government sales program. Uncle Sam may have something to sell that interests you.
