The City of Takoma Park, Maryland, is raising money for city programs by auctioning off two older city-owned garbage disposal trucks.
While that sounds like a very small pool of potential buyers, the Takoma Park announcement calls the trucks perfect for any existing waste disposal company, or other business in need of such equipment. Both trucks are in good condition.
One is a 2011 31-yard Auto Car garbage truck with 85,000 miles on it. The other is a 2009 31-yard Auto Car trash truck with 148,000 miles on it. The latter comes with Maryland refuse and recycle stickers that are current, with the last inspection listed in September 2024.
The auction listings also want potential winning bidders to know both trucks have some creature comforts, like working air conditioning and AM/FM radios.
