Government auctions in Louisiana: what the numbers say

The listings are on New Orleans NORA, GovDeals and Purple Wave, and every one on this page links to the listing on the platform that runs the sale.

Over the past year the UX Search sold archive recorded 1,275 closed sales in Louisiana. The middle hammer price ran $4,850 for cars, trucks and SUVs (563 sales), $231 for everything else (422 sales) and $4,400 for heavy equipment (115 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.
