Frequently Asked Questions

What federal agencies and installations conduct auctions in Arizona?

Arizona has significant federal presence through Luke Air Force Base (one of the largest air force bases in the US), Fort Huachuca (Army Intelligence Center), and Davis-Monthan Air Force Base near Tucson. Beyond military facilities, the GSA, DLA (Defense Logistics Agency), IRS, and US Marshals Service regularly auction surplus property from federal offices and seized assets across the state. These agencies use platforms like GSAauctions.gov, GovPlanet, and GovDeals to reach bidders.

What categories of items are most commonly available in Arizona government auctions?

Military installations drive availability of vehicles (trucks, Humvees, trailers), heavy equipment (generators, compressors, forklifts), and electronics. Federal offices throughout Arizona auction office furniture, computers, and supplies. You'll also find equipment from GSA warehouses in Phoenix and Tucson, including tools, industrial machinery, and construction materials. Real estate auctions occur periodically as federal agencies dispose of surplus property.

How do Arizona state and local surplus auctions work separately from federal auctions?

Arizona cities and counties run their own surplus programs through platforms like Municibid and PublicSurplus, separate from federal GSA auctions. State agencies like the Arizona Department of Transportation and the Department of Corrections sell surplus equipment independently. These local and state auctions typically feature vehicles, office equipment, and maintenance materials specific to each agency's needs. BidProwl aggregates both federal and state/local auctions so you can search Arizona in one place rather than checking each platform individually.
