City to Auction Items Online June 29 Through July 21

The City of San Angelo will auction 94 lots and items of surplus vehicles and other equipment beginning June 29 at renebates.com.

Among the available items are 17 cars, 11 pickup trucks, a pair of sports utility vehicles, one all-terrain vehicle, four pieces of exercise equipment, hundreds of pieces of dinnerware from the Convention Center, and a wide assortment of miscellaneous items.

Bidding will begin to progressively close at noon July 21.

Auction items can be viewed by appointment on July 3, 10 and 17. For more information or to schedule an appointment, contact City Fleet Services at 325-657-4329 or [email protected].

The City in recent years moved to a fully online auction from a large live auction that incorporated online bidding. Superintendent of Fleet Services Ryan Kramer, who administers the auction for the City, said revenue from online auction sales have increased as the items have become available to a wider audience.

The auction is being administered by Rene Bates Auctioneers, which conducts online auctions for a number of Texas municipalities and other governmental entities. Funds raised will be returned to the appropriate City fund, such as the general, water or airport funds.
