Frequently Asked Questions
- Where can I find government surplus materials auctions in New York?
- Government surplus materials in New York are sold through official platforms like GSA Auctions (federal surplus) and other state and local agency auctions. GovAuctions aggregates New York materials listings into one free, searchable feed.
- Are government materials auctions in New York open to the public?

- Can I filter New York materials auctions by distance from my ZIP code?
- Yes. Most surplus is collected in person, so distance from you usually matters more than the state a lot sits in. In the GovAuctions feed you can enter your ZIP and set a radius of 25, 50, 100, or 200 miles, and the filter applies across every indexed platform at once rather than one marketplace at a time. Results sort by pickup distance, so a radius search also catches materials just over the New York state line that browsing by state alone would hide.
