POLICE AUCTION

Swansea Police Department
Swansea, Massachusetts

The police department will sell unclaimed bicycles by means of an auction conducted online at the website www.propertyroom.com. See website for rules.

The police department will be selling unclaimed property by means of web auction because the expense of conducting a traditional auction is high and the prices paid for property are lower than is anticipated from a web auction.

If anyone should believe that an item up for auction belongs to them, please contact Sgt. Clifford Sadler custodian of property, at 508-674-8464.

The police department will sell at auction unclaimed property including bicycles, telephones, stereos, cameras, watches, jewelry, clothing, and personal articles.
