"Property Room looks forward to working with The City of Alexandria," said PJ Bellomo, CEO for Property Room. "We expect that our customer base and online expertise will prove to be a great fit for Alexandria."
The auctions, Property Room helps facilitate, relieve the city from the time and expense of holding their own auctions and generate proceeds that are later returned to the community.

Unique and offbeat items on the website have included eight-person bikes, coffins, Persian rugs, kayaks and most recently a state-of-the-art, unused X-ray machine.
