Welcome to the Federal Surplus Property Program Home Page!  

The Federal Surplus Property Program offers one-stop-shopping for Pennsylvania municipalities, emergency services, schools, and other nonprofit organizations looking for quality, used equipment and supplies at a reasonable price. 

The Program is governed by the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949.  Any time that a federal agency declares an item excess to its needs, it is first offered to any other federal agency for its use.  If no interest is expressed among federal agencies, the property becomes surplus, and is available for donation to eligible nonprofit, tax-exempt organizations in Pennsylvania.

Without this program, millions of dollars worth of Federal property would either be sold for private gain or scrapped.  Through this program, we are able to place millions of dollars worth of property - $25-$30 million annually - back into public use in Pennsylvania. 

For additional information regarding eligibility, property availability, program regulations, please follow the Quick Links to each section.

We look forward to serving your surplus needs!
