Auction Cars for Sale
A step-by-step process to buy your auction car easily and maximize savings.
Start Bidding!
We attend the auction as your agent, showing you the available cars in real time through a video call or phone call.
Guaranteed Entry
Only licensed buyers can enter U.S. vehicle auctions, and we hold that license for you.
All Vehicle Types
These auctions feature cars, SUVs, trucks, motorcycles, race cars, and much more.
Safe, Road-Ready Cars
These auctions feature cars in various conditions, yet all are roadworthy and secure.
How It works
Before the auction, you must place a security deposit in order to bid on your car.
We guide you in choosing the right car to buy, review its history and condition, and only recommend bidding if it truly makes sense.
After the auction, we handle all the paperwork, arrange secure transport, and manage delivery of the vehicle anywhere in the United States or import to Mexico.
For import into Mexico, the vehicle must pass customs inspection. Should any minor adjustment be required, we’ll take care of it and inform you of the cost, which is typically known in advance.
We can acquire all types of machinery and vehicles, including:
Tractors
Motorcycles
Dump Trucks
Refrigerated Trucks
Refrigerated Trucks
Racers
Vehicle comes with full legal documentation.
In the U.S., we deliver vehicles complete with all documentation. For imports into Mexico, we handle secure transport to your doorstep and provide the title along with official import papers so your car arrives ready to be registered.
