More than $1.6 million has been raised for charities through the Lost Property Auction since 2013.
"Our lost property auction is one of our most important charity events and with $1.6 million raised since 2013 it's clear the public love nabbing a bargain in support of a worthy cause," Josh Clements, Sydney Airport General Manager of Corporate Affairs said.
All the proceeds from the auction will go towards the Harding Miller Education Foundation, which supplies four-year scholarships for high school girls with academic potential, who are experiencing hardship.
Harding Miller Education Foundation executive chairperson, Cara Varian said they were "thrilled" to be chosen as this year's beneficiaries.
"We will be using all the money raised to support high-potential high school girls in the suburbs surrounding the airport who are experiencing disadvantage with life-changing scholarships," Miller said.
"Educating girls is a powerful way to break the vicious cycle of poverty and inequality because we know that for every additional year of education, a woman will increase her income by up to 25 per cent."
The auction will sell off 150+ laptops, 300+ headphones and earbuds and 100+ phones and tablets.
A number of accessories are up for sale including 320+ jewellery items, 200+ watches, 200+ sunglasses and glasses.  
Other items up for grabs include 120+ bottles of wine/spirits , an electric scooter, a massage table, a wedding dress, a jaffle maker and kettle, a leaf blower, a framed and autographed photo of Lionel Messi, a Star Wars Storm Trooper voice activated helmet, a Darth Vader helmet and a collection of lightsabers.
The items up for sale were left behind at the Sydney Airport and were never claimed by the owners.
Lost checked baggage is handled directly by the airlines, so items lost in transit are not included in the auction. 
"May the force be with Star Wars fans bidding in the auction because we have a Storm Trooper voice-activated helmet, a Darth Vader helmet as well as a collection of lightsabers available," Theodore Bruce Auctioneers director Casi Prischl said.
A pair of designer Gucci sunglasses are up for sale as part of the lost property auction.
