# 102-35.10 Excess personal property disposal process.

(a) Personal property not needed by your activity must first be offered for use elsewhere within your agency via internal screening. If the property is not needed by any activity within your agency, your agency must report the property as excess to GSA for possible transfer to eligible recipients.

(b) If no Federal agencies request the excess personal property, GSA declares the property to be surplus and makes it available for donation to eligible non-Federal recipients.

(c) Surplus personal property not selected for donation is offered for sale to the public by competitive offerings. Sales must be conducted in accordance with part 102-38 of this subchapter.

(d) If a written determination is made that the property has no commercial value or the estimated cost of its continued care and handling would exceed the estimated proceeds from its sale, you may dispose of the property by abandonment or destruction, or donate it to public bodies. This determination may occur at any stage of the disposal process.
