Government Scrap Auction Basics comes up with a lot of questions, especially for traders and recyclers interested in purchasing government/PSU scrap material dealing with it for the first time. Here are clear answers to what we're asked most often.
Can I inspect scrap lots before bidding?
Many auctions allow physical inspection during a specified window before the bid closes.
What happens if I don't lift the material on time?
Delayed lifting can attract penalties or, in some cases, forfeiture of the deposit.
Are scrap auctions open to all businesses?
Generally yes, subject to registration and category-specific eligibility, if any.
How is the winning bid determined?
Typically the highest bid within the auction window, subject to any reserve price set by the seller.
