Retired patrol vehicles, radios, and equipment can fund what Chelsea needs next. Municibid turns department surplus into revenue, with no fees to you.
Every dollar shown here went back to the community that sold the item.
Departments list what they retire and Municibid's bidders take it from there: no hauling, no dealer trade-ins, and the department keeps every dollar of the winning bid.

TrailersThere has not been a time when I needed assistance that I did not receive it immediately. I find Municibid to be the best tool for municipalities to repurpose no-longer-needed items and equipment by finding them a new home!

We have sold numerous things on Municibid, from large equipment to very small equipment to things we didn’t really think people would want to buy. Municibid was able to reach an audience that allowed us to sell every item. The best thing that happened to us this year was the introduction of the Municibid app. It allows us to go out in the field with a cell phone or iPad and create and post the listing from there.

The staff has been incredibly responsive to any concern, making sure that all sales transactions are completed with no problems. Our only regret is that we did not find Municibid sooner.

Chelsea was incorporated as a town in 1739 and became a city in 1857, making it one of the older communities in Suffolk County, Massachusetts. Sitting just across the Mystic River from Boston, Chelsea holds the distinction of being the smallest city in Massachusetts by land area. That compact footprint has shaped a close-knit community with a long, resilient history.
That resilience was tested in 1908, when a fire swept through Chelsea and destroyed much of its downtown and waterfront area. The city rebuilt and today operates under a council-manager form of government, with its own police and fire departments serving a population of 40,245 residents.
