There will be a selection of automotive testing equipment such as an engine analyzer, a wheel balancer and wheel alignment equipment. The less automotively inclined can bid on an air-hockey table, seven electric pallet movers, a 10-horsepower outboard motor and two single-axle utility trailers among the items which will also include a number of auctioneer-owned household lots.

A link to a partial list, with photos, is posted on the front page of the Department of Transportation and Public Works' website at www.gov.ns.ca/tran/ .
