How it Works: Auto Transport from Auction (10 Steps)

---

Shipping a car from an auto auction can be a straightforward process if you follow these 10 simple steps:

1. Purchase and Finalize Auction Details

• Confirm Purchase:
  After winning the auction, ensure that all paperwork is finalized, including the payment for the vehicle.
• Verify Auction Terms:
  Check the auction’s shipping terms and conditions, including any deadlines for vehicle removal. [4]
  

2. Obtain the Vehicle's Information

• Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):
  Have the VIN ready, as it will be crucial for identifying the vehicle. [5]
  
• Condition Report:
  Request a condition report to document the vehicle’s state before shipping. This is essential for insurance and shipping purposes.

3. Choose a Reliable Auto Transport Company

• Research and Compare:
  Look for a reputable auto transport company that specializes in shipping from auto auctions. Consider customer reviews, services offered, and pricing.
  
• Contact Viceroy Auto Transport:
  Get in touch with us to discuss your needs and receive a tailored quote for shipping your vehicle from the auction.
  
• How to Contact Us:
  You can reach us by phone at (866) 761-5133 or fill out our Free Quote Request Form to have information sent to you by email and phone. The sooner you complete this step, the sooner we can pickup your vehicle from the auction before any storage or late fees begin to pile up by the auction yard.
  

4. Select the Right Transport Method

• Open Auto Transport:
  Ideal for standard vehicles and the most cost-effective option.
• Enclosed Auto Transport:
  Offers additional protection for high-value or classic cars, keeping them shielded from the elements.

5. Book Your Transport Service

• Provide Necessary Information:
  Give your chosen transport company the auction details, including the auction house’s location, contact information, and your preferred delivery address. Also, remember to provide the Buyer Number and the Lot or Stock number usually issued by the auction yard. This helps locate the vehicle on the property and documents what belongs to who.
• Schedule Pickup and Delivery:
  Set up the pickup and delivery dates that align with the auction house’s removal deadlines and your availability.
  

6. Prepare the Vehicle for Shipping

The staff at the auto auction yard should be prepared and ready to handle the transaction with the auto carrier on arrival. They should have the vehicle accessible for the driver to easily load it onto the car hauler.

7. Coordinate with the Auction House

• Authorize the Release:
  Provide the auction house with the transport company’s details and authorize them to release the vehicle to the carrier.
  
• Arrange Access:
  Make sure the auction house has clear instructions for the pickup, including any necessary paperwork that needs to be handed to the carrier.
  

8. Vehicle Inspection at Pickup

• Carrier Inspection:
  The transport company will conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle before loading it onto the carrier. This inspection will be documented and a copy provided to you.
  
• Review and Sign:
  Review the inspection report and sign off to confirm the vehicle’s condition at pickup.

9. Track the Shipment

• Stay Informed:
  Most auto transport companies, including Viceroy Auto Transport, offer an Order Tracker so you can monitor your order’s progress.
  
• Communicate with the Carrier:
  Maintain open communication with the carrier for any updates or changes in delivery timing.

10. Receive the Vehicle at Destination

• Final Inspection:
  Upon arrival, inspect the vehicle to ensure it’s in the same condition as it was at pickup.
  
• Sign Off and Pay:
  Once satisfied, sign the final delivery receipt and make any remaining payments due for the transport service.
  

By working with a reliable auto transport company and following these steps, you can successfully ship a car from an auto auction like Co-Part, Insurance Auto Auction, or Manheim to your desired destination with minimal hassle. Make sure to communicate openly with the transport company and review their policies and insurance coverage to ensure a smooth and secure shipping process.
