Surplus Account

The Trip Resource Center (TRC) Surplus Website hosted by Community in Motion, is a private website meant to assist community organizations, non-profits, and transit agencies within Washington State to access available surplus transportation equipment and vehicles to support transportation needs around the state before the items go to public auction.  Community organizations, non-profits, and transit agencies will have the ability to post, view, and contact posters to arrange purchase of surplus equipment and vehicles for two weeks before the general public.The purpose is to give smaller organizations that may not have the ability to purchase new transportation equipment or vehicles, the ability to access surplus items at a significantly reduced price. As well as allowing larger transportation organizations the ability to indirectly support community transportation programs and services around Washington State.
