Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you have any maintenance records for this vehicle? We do not provide historical maintenance records with any of our vehicles.
Why are you selling this vehicle? Generally speaking all of our surplus vehicles listed for sale have reached their usable lifespan, and/or are damaged or have so many mechanical issues that the cost to repair them exceeds their value.
I bought this vehicle, can I have someone else pick up it up for me? Possibly. The vehicle is usually only released to the winner listed on the auction website. The buyer must present a Valid Driver’s License that matches the name on the payment receipt before they can sign the title and take the vehicle. If another entity is picking up the vehicle, the buyer must provide written, specific instructions for the other person/towing company/etc.
I forgot my driver’s license/ID and cannot show it to you. What do I do? You'll need to go get it and come back before the vehicle and title will be released to you.
Can I inspect the vehicle and test drive it? You are welcome to inspect the vehicle at the allotted viewing times, but you may not drive the vehicle out of the parking lot.
You do not sell the vehicle with a license plate or a temporary plate, how do I legally drive it home? You may tow it, load it on a trailer, or obtain a trip permit through any DMV office to drive it (if it runs and drives).
Can you take additional pictures or videos for me? Possibly, but we encourage you to inspect the vehicle in-person before bidding on it.
