Government auctions in Indiana: what the numbers say

Government sellers in Indiana have 549 auctions open right now, mostly cars, trucks and SUVs (171), heavy trucks (66), real estate (35) and heavy equipment (29). The listings are on GovDeals, Proxibid and Purple Wave, and every one on this page links to the listing on the platform that runs the sale.

The biggest sellers at the moment are Indiana State Surplus, Indiana University, Owen County Sheriff's Office and Ivy Tech Community College, with 13 other agencies listing as well. Fort Wayne, McCordsville, Indianapolis and Bloomington have the most listings, and Allen, Hamilton and Monroe are the busiest counties.

Over the past year the UX Search sold archive recorded 1,733 closed sales in Indiana. The middle hammer price ran $11,050 for cars, trucks and SUVs (955 sales), $143 for everything else (308 sales) and $11 for seized property, jewelry and coins (186 sales). The buyer's premium, sales tax and pickup are on top of the hammer price, and each sale on this page links to the listing it came from.

A government sells what it is done with: vehicles replaced on a schedule, equipment from a department that closed or consolidated, and property seized or abandoned and sold by the county. The seller's name is on every listing, the photos show the condition, and most sales are pickup only at the location listed, within a window of a week or two after the close. Read the terms on the sale before you bid; the premium and the pickup rules differ by platform and by seller.
