The New Year Brings New Deals: Loudoun’s Online Surplus Auction Offers Unique Finds
Looking for a fresh project, a new-to-you vehicle, or something unexpected? Loudoun County’s first online surplus auction of 2025 is officially underway, and it’s full of hidden gems. From practical tools to quirky finds, there’s something for everyone. The auction runs through 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, January 16, 2025, so there’s still time to check out the lineup and snag a deal.
This year’s auction includes a 2014 Jeep Compass Sport 4X4 and a 2013 Ford Transit Connect XLT FWD minivan for those on the hunt for a reliable ride. For DIYers and hobbyists, there’s a Delta Sidekick 10 Sliding Compound Miter Saw and an electric portable work light with a stand, along with other tools like a welder and outdoor power equipment. Tech enthusiasts might be drawn to computers, books, and even 3D printers.
But one standout item might surprise you: a lot of two five-tier bleachers. Perfect for local sports clubs, schools, or community organizations, these bleachers come with a bit of “character.” While the description notes rust, missing endcaps, and some bent planks, they could be a fantastic project for someone looking to restore them. Measuring approximately 181″ long and 108″ deep, these bleachers have the potential to serve as seating for a variety of outdoor events—or even as a creative reuse project for a local artist or builder.
This auction is a reminder of Loudoun County’s resourceful approach to giving surplus items a second life. Not only does it help clear out unused county inventory, but it also offers residents the chance to pick up affordable and functional items. Plus, it’s fun to see what unique finds pop up each time.
