Alabama Unclaimed Property Auctions Contain Valuables

Alabama unclaimed money totals are over $400 million in money and property left abandoned. Most of this is cash, lost checks, bonds, security deposits, and more. However, like most states, lost property is also stored by Alabama’s treasury department.

Most of these items are contents of abandoned security deposit boxes and Alabama law states that they will hold these items for one year after the initial publishing of the contents. Then the items are put up for public auction by a third party.
