Many items being sold by Clark County and other agencies in the region can be seen in-person at JJ Kane Auction’s Southern Nevada location during on-site preview days. Their lot is located in North Las Vegas at 14655 Grand Valley Parkway, 89165, southwest of I-15 and Exit 58. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on preview days. Participating agencies include the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, state of Nevada, Las Vegas Water District, and the cities of North Las Vegas, Henderson, and St. George, Utah.
“The preview gives interested bidders a chance to check out many items in person before placing their bids online," said Jeff Benites, manager of Clark County’s Automotive Services Division, which works with JJ Kane to host the auction. Clark County typically participates in three government surplus auctions a year to sell vehicles and equipment used or acquired by government agencies.
