County Police to Auction Off Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles

Tue, 06/21/2022 - 15:34

More than 120 impounded vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, and even a bucket truck, will be auctioned off on Saturday starting at 9 a.m. by the Suffolk County Police Department at its impound yard in Westhampton.

Police auctions, which are open to the public, generally occur when property has been impounded but unclaimed for a certain amount of time. The length of time that must pass before an item goes to auction follows a set of guidelines based on its approximate value.

There will be a preview of the vehicles on the auction block on Thursday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the impound yard, 100 Old Country Road in Westhampton 11977. Potential buyers can also preview the vehicles from 8 to 9 on Saturday.

Bids start at $300. Vehicles are sold as-is, and all sales are final. A full list of rules and guidelines can be found here.

Green Giants: Here to Stay?

Long Island’s South Fork, known for beaches, maritime history, and fancy people, is also known for its hedges. Hedge installation and maintenance are big business, and there could be a whole book about hedges, with different varieties popular during different eras. In the last decade, for example, the “green giant,” a now ubiquitous tree, has been placed along property lines throughout the Hamptons. It’s here to stay, and grow, and grow.
