The Pennsylvania Department of General Services announced an online auction giving the public an opportunity to bid on a wide range of surplus commonwealth equipment, including off-road equipment, dump trucks, and more.

The public auction opens today and run through Aug. 14, offering local governments, and Pennsylvanians a chance to purchase high-quality, previously state-owned equipment that was used by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.

“Every piece of equipment sold through this auction represents our commitment to getting the most value from taxpayer-funded assets,” said DGS Secretary Reggie McNeil. “By putting surplus vehicles and machinery back into service, we help local governments, businesses and residents access dependable equipment while ensuring commonwealth resources continue delivering value long after their original use.”

The auction will be conducted entirely online through GovDeals, where the full inventory will be posted ahead of the sale. Interested buyers must register with GovDeals before browsing, inspecting (by appointment) and placing bids.

In-person inspections will be held Aug. 4-6 (7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.), 5 Mountain Road, Grantville.

The State Surplus Property Program, operated by DGS, is committed to repurposing and reselling government assets to extend their value and reduce waste, delivering real benefits to taxpayers and communities across Pennsylvania.
