What does Municibid do?

Municibid is an online auction marketplace that connects government agencies and schools with the public to buy and sell surplus items, forfeitures, and lost-and-found goods. Founded in 2006 by Greg Berry in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, the platform addresses the inefficiencies of traditional government surplus sales. It serves over 4,000 state and local governments and schools across the country. The platform operates as a free service for sellers, allowing municipalities, public schools, and various government agencies to list items without any fees. Sellers can easily upload photos and descriptions, while Municibid manages marketing, bidding, and sales reporting. Buyers can browse and bid on a wide range of surplus items, including vehicles, equipment, and school goods, making government auctions more accessible to the general public. Municibid has been recognized as a four-time Inc. 5000 company, highlighting its growth and impact in transforming how government agencies monetize surplus assets.
