The Surplus Property Division ensures the fair and appropriate redistribution or disposal of state and federal personal property. This property may go to state and local government entities, eligible nonprofit organizations, and higher education institutions.
Donees can view and request state surplus property here.
Before you can apply to acquire state surplus property, you’ll need to gather certain documents. Which documents you need will depend on your organization. Documents can include, but are not limited to:
W-9 tax forms
IRS 501c ruling
Articles of incorporation bylaws
Description of facilities
Copies of minutes resolution or legislation from city council or county board
If you have an existing user account for the DOAS Customer Hub, log in using your username and password.
Complete the eligibility application and attach your supporting documents.
Have one of the organization’s principal officers electronically sign the application.
The organization must be available for a site visit and online orientation, which describes the benefits, processes, and restrictions on any surplus property received, before the application can be reviewed for approval. Approved recipients are referred to as “donees.”
Incomplete applications cannot be processed and will delay your organization's eligibility determination.
You should receive an email within approximately 32 business days notifying you if your organization has been deemed eligible. If you have questions or issues with your application, you can contact the DOAS Eligibility Specialist by email at surplus.property@doas.ga.gov or by phone at 404-657-8544, Extension 1.
To maintain eligibility, donees must renew each year. The renewal deadline is based on the last approval date.
If you are deemed ineligible and you would like to appeal the decision, you can appeal to the Surplus Property Division by emailing surplus.property@doas.ga.gov.
