A surplus is what remains above what is used or needed. A common example of government surplus goods besides food is military surplus things from extra and outdated clothing to tanks and weaponry. You can find government surplus goods in almost any category though, from books, to office equipment, electronics, computers, medical and dental equipment, to trucks, buses, airplanes, and heavy machinery. In certain circumstances the government also confiscates private property, for example, vehicles found carrying drugs. Government surplus auctions are held throughout the country and online. A government surplus of money is called a budget surplus. A county government in surplus could better more streets and roads in less time than originally planned, for instance. A city government in budget surplus might use the money to add more amenities to a public park, and so on.
