Frequently Asked Questions

What types of items are commonly sold in Virginia government auctions?

Virginia auctions feature diverse inventory tied to the state's federal and state operations. Military bases and installations sell vehicles, generators, and industrial equipment regularly. Government offices liquidate office furniture, computers, and IT equipment. Property and real estate auctions happen through IRS and court channels. State agencies also sell surplus from schools, transportation departments, and administrative operations. The specific categories available shift based on each agency's disposal schedule.

How do Virginia state surplus auctions differ from federal auctions?

Virginia state agencies (schools, DMV, transportation departments) sell surplus through platforms like GovDeals and PublicSurplus, which tend to have shorter auction periods and lower minimum bids than federal GSA auctions. State auctions often feature office equipment and vehicles in smaller quantities. Federal auctions typically have larger lots, longer bidding windows, and stricter inspection policies. Both run concurrently, so Virginia buyers can participate in state liquidations while also bidding on federal property.
