Pick-Up and Third Party Pick-Up Procedures: If you arrive without an appointment you may have an extended wait or may have to come back on another day. Every person you bring to load will first have to sign a waiver prior to removing your auction group items.

1. Upon receipt of payment, you will be notified by email sent to the address you provided at registration with GovDeals.com. You may then contact the City of Winston-Salem and arrange for a mutually convenient pick-up time. You must bring to the Central Warehouse (1) the Bill of Sale with signature, (2) personal picture identification (such as a Driver License). You must present both of these identification items at the scheduled pick-up, or the auction item(s) will not be released to you.

2. After paperwork has been submitted, City staff will escort you to the pick up location(s) at other City facilities.

3. You are responsible to provide all equipment and labor when picking up your items. No loading dock is available - all items are stored at street level. Please bring another person to help you load large items. City staff is not authorized to assist in loading your items.

4. If you are picking up an item for someone else, you will need to bring the Bill of Sale with signature plus a notarized statement from the designated winning bidder specifically naming you as authorized representative, along with your own personal picture identification. In addition, you must arrange for the winning bidder to send an e-mail from the winning bidder e-mail address used for the auction, stating that you are authorized to pick-up the item.

Removal. Buyer must remove auction item(s) from the agency premises within ten (10) business days after the time and date of issuance of the Notice of Award. If the Buyer, after making payment for an item, fails to remove the item within the specified time, the agency reserves the right (1) to retain all payments; and (2) to dispose of the item through another auction or otherwise. Successful bidders are responsible for packing, loading, removing and transporting all property awarded to them from the place where the property is located as indicated on the website and in the Notice of Award.
