Who sells near Portsmouth
Auctioneers with live lots here: Apex Auctions (128). See how each one works on the sources page.
UK councils and public bodies sell surplus vehicles and plant through commercial auctioneers, and the listings we collect name the auctioneer, not the original owner. So we cannot tell you which lots near Portsmouth came from a council, and this page does not label any lot as council property.
Police auctions near Portsmouth
GovAuctions does not list UK police sales, so none of the lots on this page are police property. In England and Wales, property that comes into police hands and cannot be returned is disposed of under the Police (Property) Act 1897 and the Police (Property) Regulations 1997, and forces sell it online rather than from a local saleroom.
Many forces use Bumblebee Auctions, the national police property site, where unclaimed items run on seven-day online auctions. Others sell through John Pye's online police sales or their own eBay shops (Sussex, Leicestershire, Thames Valley and Northamptonshire police all run one). Search those for property near Portsmouth, and check whether the lot ships or must be collected from the force.
