To those interested in the State Agency for Surplus Property:
The State Agency for Surplus Property in the Department of Administrative and Financial Services is responsible for the distribution and allocation of all surplus property. Surplus is federal personal property that is owned by the federal government and donated to various states through GSA (General Services Administration). The State Agency for Surplus Property acts as a clearinghouse to obtain donable property from all possible sources. Donable property is then allocated to all eligible donees through the systematic review of requests and the assessment of each donee's level of need. The purpose of allocation is to achieve a fair and equitable distribution of surplus property to all eligible donees throughout the State.
Eligible donees include the following:
- Public agencies, including public schools.
- Nonprofit, tax-exempt organizations.
To be considered eligible, each donee must meet the requirements established by federal regulations. Each donee that is approved by the Manager will be eligible for all types of federal surplus property.
Eligible donees can obtain property by having the chief administrator, town manager, executive director, etc., complete the Application for Eligibility, Debarment and Assurance documents. Requests will be reviewed periodically as property becomes available. Allocations will be made on a routine basis to donees with the greatest need for a particular item and those with the earliest request. Property can also be obtained by "screening" at the agency's warehouse facilities. Screening includes looking at property, claiming it for a donee, and taking it back to the organization, town, etc.
If you would like to participate in this program and you think you are eligible, please complete the four forms attached to this letter.
Once the application is completed it must be printed then mailed or faxed to our office due to signature requirements. The Application for Eligibility needs to be renewed every 3 years.
REQUEST
If your application for eligibility is approved and you wish to request items such as trucks, loaders, generators or any other heavy equipment, please submit your request to the above address.
Do not list items such as desks, chairs, typewriters, etc., as they are readily available through our warehouse.
In accordance with Federal law and the General Services Administration's (GSA) regulations and policies, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color

Emergency Sale Policy for Auction Property
Effective immediately, the State of Maine will require independent third party verification of the need and the status of the item being replaced. This could come from a newspaper article describing the loss of the equipment due to a catastrophe or an appraiser hired by the donee. This third party verification will be at the cost of the donee. If the State of Maine verifies that a donee has falsified documents or statements, the donees status will be revoked and they could face a permanent ban.
If a donee submits an emergency request for a specific item by model number that they have been advised is available by someone other than State Surplus Property, and there are other similar items available, those requests will be denied.
Emergency sales will be allowed up to the week prior to the donee viewing date. No emergency sales will be allowed the week of donee viewing.
Criteria for emergencies would be the loss or a critical need of a vehicle or equipment which has an immediate and substantial impact on public safety and health.
The form above must be submitted to the Manager of Surplus Property for evaluation and subsequent approval/denial. The request must be submitted by the Chief Administrator, Executive Head, or Governing Board Official designated on the Surplus Property approved application for eligibility.
We recommend you check the auction list to ensure your item(s) are available for purchase on the donee viewing day. You are welcome to contact us at 287-5753 to confirm availability.
