3. Disposal (Dumping, Destruction etc.) Of The Cargo
Any disposal, discarding, or throwing away of any cargo must be done correctly. This must be in accordance with federal, state, and local law. The responsible party must acquire all legal permission before attempting to dispose of the items. In cases of a health concern, special arrangements can be made.
Often warehouse will end up with large quantities of unclaimed friend to be disposed of. These are often contracted out to companies who specialized in commercial trash removal and/or recycling companies.
Though it can be hard to determine the exact number of items and containers deemed as unclaimed freight the number can be staggering. For example the US Department of Transportation DOT, has estimated that over 700,000 loaded containers are abandoned each year!

What Are Unclaimed Freight Stuff You Can Buy?
Many of us probably wonder: What is unclaimed freight stuff you can buy?
Well as I mentioned above there is a several steps before an item can be declared unclaimed freight. But once it has been declared as such and the shipper has decided to sell it they will pursue the best option for doing so.
Many of the larger companies will hold regular auctions to get rid of unclaimed freight. Who would think that so much cargo could be abandoned? Other companies will hold auctions or sell the unclaimed freight as the need arises.
The United States Customs Service holds auctions and/or sells things at various times through the year. Well, actually they don’t sponsor the sales; they use an outside contractor, CWS Asset Management and Sales. You can go online to learn about dates and locations, they also will allow you to physically look at their selling items and merchandise as appropriate and feasible.
