Payphone kiosks and over 100 abandoned vehicles will be auctioned by the city of New Orleans Department of Public Works.
Besides the old payphones, the city will also auction an inventory of 100 vehicles abandoned after being booted or ticketed.
“Abandoned vehicles in the right of way create safety hazards by obstructing drivers’ line of sight, and limiting pedestrian access,” said Josh Hartley, Acting Director of DPW. “Removing these eyesores from public spaces demonstrates our commitment to improving quality of life in New Orleans.”
Residents interested in bidding on the auction inventory may go to www.Proxibid.com/servcorp to register and bid on the vehicles and kiosks. Bids will be accepted through 9 a.m. on June 3, 2021.
Winning bidders can pay online and may collect the item in person at 10200 Almonaster Ave.
