Company Overview

Liquidity Services, Inc. is a technology-driven provider of online marketplaces for surplus and remarketed assets. Through its wholly owned platforms—such as Liquidation.com, GovDeals, Machinio and GoIndustry DoveBid—the company connects sellers of industrial equipment, commercial inventory, government surplus and transportation assets with a broad base of registered buyers. Its solutions blend auction formats, fixed-price listings and managed-service offerings to support efficient asset disposition across a wide range of industries.

The company’s core services include asset valuation, marketing, inspection and logistics coordination. Liquidity Services delivers both on-site and off-site managed solutions, enabling clients to decommission facilities, liquidate excess inventory and recover value from end-of-life assets. Buyers benefit from access to authenticated lots and professional inspection reports, while sellers leverage the company’s proprietary e-commerce platform to reach global bidders and maximize recovery rates.

Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Washington, D.C., Liquidity Services has expanded its footprint to North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. The company serves commercial enterprises, government agencies and educational institutions, providing tailored auction and remarketing programs that address regulatory compliance, environmental considerations and data security for high-value assets such as medical equipment, data center hardware and manufacturing machinery.

William P. Angrick III has led Liquidity Services as President and Chief Executive Officer since 2010, guiding the firm through strategic acquisitions and platform enhancements aimed at broadening its service capabilities. Under his leadership, the executive team has focused on sustainable reuse of assets, operational efficiency and technological innovation, positioning the company as a leader in digital asset remarketing and surplus management worldwide.
