GovAuction.bid collects government and police vehicle auctions into one calendar, starting with New Jersey (more states coming). The New Jersey calendar lists vehicle auctions held by New Jersey municipalities, counties, police departments (impound and unclaimed vehicles), authorities, school districts and the State.
Each entry was seen on the linked page on its “fetched” date. Nothing is estimated. Automatic sources are refreshed by scripts/refresh.py, which obeys robots.txt, waits at least 2 seconds per site and uses no logins.
Manual entries come from published legal or official notices.

Known gaps
- Many impound sales are only announced in newspaper legal notices. Coverage of those is partial.
- PropertyRoom blocks automated access from our host, and njpublicnotices.com search needs a form postback. Neither is automated.
- Auction “lots” on USGovBid and Auctions International can include non-vehicle items.
