Military Surplus Warehouse to Hold Sale

By Amy Lester, NEWS 9

OKLAHOMA CITY -- The country's largest military surplus warehouse is opening up in Oklahoma.

Government liquidation will start selling thousands of items it got from the Department of Defense.

The warehouse will hold a grand opening tomorrow.

In every crate, in each box there's a treasure. And the 250,000 items come from the Department of Defense and they're all for sale.

"Anything from medical or dental equipment to aircraft parts, if you have a warehouse and need forklifts, this would be the place to come to shop," Elizabeth Vigil with Government Liquidation said.

You can take a look at the items in the warehouse; typically, everything's bid on, online.

They'll have a live auction, in person, for the trucks and a 52-foot-tent at the grand opening on Saturday. Everything else is done over the computer.

"We never know what we're gonna get so it's always exciting to see what's coming down the pipeline," warehouse worker Russell Aduddell said.

You can bid on instruments, swords, boots, an anchor, a mounting bracket for a dragon missile and so much more.

"It kinda makes you think you used it, whether they used it overseas or something like that or it never made it, they had too many," Aduddell said.

Some stuff's new, some is used. The nearly half a million square foot warehouse is packed full now, the times are just waiting for buyers.

"The sky's the limit here if you have an idea for a business, this is the place to come and take and look to see if you can find what you're looking for," Aduddell said.
