All practical guidesAuction pickups

Prepare for an auction pickup

Have the collection details ready for a smoother vehicle move.

Check the release requirements

Ask the auction house what the driver must present, when the vehicle can be collected and whether an appointment is required. Confirm any collection deadline directly with the auction house.

Describe the vehicle accurately

Tell your operator whether keys are available and whether the vehicle starts, rolls, steers and brakes. Mention damage, missing wheels or other loading difficulties.

Confirm collection with the operator

Share the auction address, lot number, release authority and destination. Confirm the provider accepts the job before relying on a collection time.
