Important Documents and Links

Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)

Electronic Funds Transfers allow the City to deposit payments for goods and services directly into your bank account. EFT payments are secure, efficient, environmentally friendly and avoid potential delays. The City encourages Suppliers to register. Suppliers submitting invoices for goods and services provided to the City, shall email their invoices to [email protected] along with a completed Electronic Funds Transfer Authorization Form as well as a void cheque in order to register.

Surplus Goods

Depending on the nature or condition of the good, the City may post goods that have been declared surplus. After a prospective buyer has created an account on the GovDeals user-friendly website, buyers will have access to all surplus items from a multitude of agencies that are available for auction. The items are sold “as is, where is”, meaning that it is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure the condition and specification of the goods meets their needs before placing a bid. Please note that by placing a bid, you are making a contract between yourself and the seller. Once a bid has been placed, you may not retract it. At any time prior to the auction closing, the City of Niagara Falls reserves the right to suspend or cancel the offer to sell the posted item.
