Spring cleaning this weekend? You can donate all of those found treasures to be auctioned off at the Freeport Fire Auction on June 4, starting at 10 a.m.
New and used auction items are currently being accepted (except tires, clothing and refrigerators). Items may be dropped off behind the station in the semi-trailer located at 100 State Street in Freeport or call the fire station at 616-765-5450 and leave a message to schedule a pickup.
“No item is too big, we once had a sailboat!” Chief Jim Yarger said. “The generosity of the community and townships we serve has enabled us to have great equipment to serve our residents."
Proceeds from the auction will be used to purchase additional rescue equipment. The fire department is not for profit so donated items can be used as a tax deduction with a donation slip from the department.
