(WTXL) Tallahassee, Fla - Behind the doors of a secure vault in Tallahassee, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of unclaimed property sits.
After a safe deposit box has been abandoned for three years, banks send the contents to the state vault, where items are held for another two years.
Now in order to save room, the valuables are being auctioned off. The next unclaimed property auction will be held this Saturday, August 9th in Orlando.
Rightful owners can always come forward and claim their valuables. Nearly 250 million dollars worth of unclaimed money or property was returned last year.
