Read the New York Times Article
Today’s law enforcement agencies have property rooms full of stolen or forfeited
goods. The rightful owners are not easily identified, and once property is no longer
needed as evidence, it must be disposed of properly. Enter Property Room. Founded
and managed by former police officers, Property Room harnesses the power of the
Internet to quickly move items out of police property rooms, reduce personnel costs
and generate revenue well beyond traditional police auction methods. And there is
no cost to the participating police or sheriffs department.

We begin with free pick up - Coast to Coast - on your schedule. No need to wait
till the property room is overflowing. Monthly pickups available. Property Room
uses proprietary methods to manage the processing and merchandising of property
room items and their placement on the Internet. All items are tracked by case or
control number, with secure, online reports available for auditing and reconciliation
purposes. Property Room is responsible for all fulfillment and customer service
functions, which relieves participating departments of burdensome management functions.
As an additional feature of its unique approach to online auctions, Property Room
has established StealitBack.com, the nation’s only public national registry
of stolen goods. Private citizens are invited to register on StealitBack.com
any items with serial numbers they have lost or reported stolen to their local police
department. StealitBack.com will search its database, and if an item has
been received from a participating department, will return the item to the police
department where the theft or loss was originally reported so that it may be returned
to its rightful owner free of charge.
Bottom line, a partnership with Property Room will reduce your storage and handling
costs, increase your net proceeds and provide you with the most extensive audit
reporting available anywhere.
