Montana's government surplus reflects its geography – heavy equipment dominates. The Montana Department of Transportation maintains one of the largest state road networks per capita in the country, generating a steady supply of graders, plows, loaders, and maintenance trucks. Malmstrom Air Force Base near Great Falls produces military surplus through DLA Disposition Services. The state's timber and mining industry means federal agencies like the Forest Service and BLM also dispose of specialized equipment. Low bidder competition in Montana consistently produces below-market winning bids.
Montana's distances make logistics a consideration. Most DOT equipment is at district maintenance yards across the state. Flatbed transport from rural Montana to a metro area can run $500-2,000+ depending on distance and equipment size. Factor shipping into your bid. Some buyers rent a trailer and tow equipment themselves.
GovDeals is the primary platform for Montana state and local surplus. GSA Auctions lists federal agency surplus. DLA Disposition Services handles Malmstrom AFB military equipment. Purple Wave occasionally runs Montana heavy equipment auctions. The Montana Department of Administration also conducts direct surplus sales.
