For those who have always been on the hunt for a great deal on a used vehicle, the Williston Police Department has just the thing: a live vehicle auction scheduled for May 17, 2025. Starting at 10:00 a.m., dozens of unclaimed vehicles will be up for grabs at the department’s impound lot. Gates open two hours earlier for registration and previewing the vehicles, and potential buyers will need a valid ID to participate.
The twist? All vehicles are being sold in their current condition, meaning no warranties or returns are offered. If keys are available, you’ll get them on-site, but don’t expect any promises about the vehicle’s operational status. Winners must settle up by the end of the auction day and have until May 23 to collect their new ride—or face a daily storage fee of $5.
While this might sound like a bit of a risk, it can also be a smart way to snag a bargain. Just make sure you do your research before bidding. If you’re in the market for a cheap vehicle or just love the thrill of an auction, this event might be right up your alley.
For those interested, the full list of vehicles will be posted on the Williston PD’s website and social media channels ahead of time. You can even give them a call at 701-577-1212 to get the inside scoop. So mark your calendars for May 17, and don’t miss this unique chance to drive off into the sunset in a vehicle that’s as affordable as it is exciting!
