The DNR is holding the second of two confiscated equipment auctions this year on Saturday, Oct. 1. The auction will be held online at www.hillerauction.com. The list of items to be sold is on the website.

The bidding catalog for the auction will be available online on Sept. 28. This will include a written description and photos of each item. Onsite inspection is available Friday, Sept. 30 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Hiller Auction Service, 10785 261st Avenue, Zimmerman, MN.

The auction will begin closing at 10 a.m. on Oct. 1, with a staggered ending – one item ending per minute. Bidding will extend on that item if there is a bid in the final three minutes and extend as many times as needed until there are no bids for three minutes. Extended bidding does not affect the ending times of other items.

Winning bidders will be sent an invoice after the completion of the auction. Items must be picked up at Hiller Auction Service, 10785 261st Avenue, Zimmerman, MN. 

Please note: Bidders who purchase a firearm will be required to pass a Federal Firearms background check in person when paying for and picking up the firearm(s) at the auction location.  

Additional information about auction procedures is available on the Hiller Auction website.
