POLICE GOVERNMENT & BAILIFF AUCTIONS DIRECTORY 

Below is a list of auctioneers around the country who often undertake the resale 

of property from the police, bailiffs and other public authorities. Your next 

simple step is to visit the websites or contact the nearest ones to you and find 

out the next viewing times and auction dates! Many of them can supply 

catalogues of current and previous auctions. You will be truly amazed at the 

savings you can make! 

Towards the end of the guide, you may find 10-15 places not necessarily 

connected to public authorities. Some of them are renowned Auctioneers or 

Salesrooms where you can find outstanding items or bargains; the rest are 

really useful Internet portals that provide lists, catalogues, news etc. for 

hundreds of auctions nationwide. I hope you find this extra information helpful. 

I’m sure you appreciate the possible value this information could mean to you

The Council does not generally auction its property, but has tended to use the 

informal tendering route. If the Council uses external agents then it would use 

only Chartered Surveyors only.

The Council will generally invite agents to tender for the commission and 

depending upon the property will use local or regional agents. Examples of 

agents used in the past are as follows: 

Regional: DTZ Debenham Tie Leung – Chestertons - Humberts Leisure – 

Donaldsons – Carter Jonas 

Local: Chapman Preston & Hastie - Ward price – Staintons - Edward Astin & 

Co – Cundalls - Boulton & Cooper
