Wisconsin has several active federal auction sources. Fort McCoy (U.S. Army Reserve installation near Tomah) regularly auctions military surplus and equipment. The General Services Administration (GSA) sells federal property and equipment, while the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) handles military excess inventory. The IRS and U.S. Marshals Service also conduct auctions for seized and forfeited property. These agencies post auctions across multiple platforms aggregated on BidProwl, so you can track all of them in one place.
Wisconsin municipalities and state agencies sell surplus property through platforms like GovDeals, PublicSurplus, and Municibid. Cities, counties, and school districts use these auctions to liquidate equipment, vehicles, and property they no longer need. State surplus auctions are typically open to the general public and run for a set period. Payment and pickup terms vary by seller, so it's important to review each auction's specific conditions before bidding.
Heavy equipment and vehicles dominate Wisconsin auctions due to the state's agricultural and industrial base. You'll find tractors, excavators, trucks, and construction machinery from federal agencies like DLA and local departments. Electronics, office furniture, and industrial tools are also common. Seasonal variation exists too: winter months often bring more snow removal equipment and de-icing supplies from municipal budgets, while spring typically sees increased heavy machinery liquidation from county and state facilities.
