The fall auction is the largest of the year.

Popular items to be sold include furniture, computers, bicycles, electronics and unclaimed property from McCarran International Airport’s Lost and Found division.
Anyone interested in participating on site at the auction must register as a bidder in person at the TNT Auction trailer set up on the lot. There is no cost to register. Payment is expected upon winning a bid. Cash, credit cards, debit cards, cashier’s checks, traveler’s checks and money orders are accepted.
Clark County contracts with TNT Auction to manage the surplus sales three times a year. Catalogs listing vehicles and miscellaneous items being sold are posted on TNT’s website. Many items are moved to the auction site in advance of the sale and can be looked at during the preview period. Interested buyers can sit in vehicles and ask for them to be started up during the preview period.
The vehicle auction is conducted online and on site at the same time. Anyone who plans to bid for vehicles online must register in advance of the sale online through TNT’s website. If you register online for the vehicle auction, you must bid online. Miscellaneous items are sold on site only during a live, separate auction that occurs at the same time as the vehicle auction.
The auction dates for 2019 are March 2, May 11 and Nov. 16, all on Saturdays starting at 8 a.m.
