What to Expect

Vehicle Drop Off: Bring your vehicle to our facility in Williston, VT.

  • Include the Title (if applicable).

Set Your Reserve: Set the lowest dollar amount you are willing to accept & sign a 1-page form allowing us to sell your vehicle on your behalf. We will do our best to get as much as we can above that amount.

Set the light code you wish to list the vehicle under:

  • Red – AS IS
  • Green – You are allowing the buyer the following:
  • 1 hour test drive to ensure the engine and transmission are in good working order.
  • 72 hours to have the frame looked at by a shop for rust that would prevent the vehicle from passing a VT inspection.
  • Clock starts once the buyer pays in full following the auction.
  • If any of these items fail, the car can be returned by the buyer and will receive a full refund. You can come pick up the car or run it again under RED light.
  • Yellow – This is determined by our staff based on the title of your vehicle.
  • If the title is branded (rebuilt, salvage, etc.) it will have a yellow light in addition to Green or Red.
  • If a title is required, however, and you do not bring it prior to auction, your vehicle will have a yellow light attached along with either the Red or Green light.
  • Yellow is determined by our staff and will be in addition to Red or Green based on your choice.

Auction Day: Your vehicle will be run through the auction block.

  • The highest bidder (if the highest bid is greater than your reserve) will win the vehicle.
  • We handle all the money and paperwork from the buyer.
  • You can watch the auction online or in person if you wish.

Pay Day: The Wednesday following the auction is PAY DAY!

  • You can come to our location in Williston to collect your check or have it mailed to you.
  • The check you receive will be the final sale price minus fees.

    • Auto Auction: Register & inspect on site from 7:30AM on day of sale if bidding on site. Register online at any point prior to the auction. $500 deposit required.
    • Online Auctions: Register online at any point prior to the auction.
    • Live Auctions: Register & inspect on site from 1 hour prior to sale bidding on site. Register online at any point prior to the auction.
  • What type of payment methods do you accept?

    • Auto: Credit Card, Debit (onsite only), Cash, Wire.
    • Real Estate: Deposit for Auction - Wire, Bank Check, Cash. Other payment will be through closing.
  • Auction Type Differences

    What is the difference between a "Timed Auction", "Simulcast", and "Live" Auction? 

    • Timed Auctions: Auctions are online and bidding occurs and lots will close in order of Lot #
    • Simulcast: Timed Auction with on-site bidders and live auctioneer. 
    • Live: No Online; live auctioneer and bidding is done in person. 
  • Do I need to be online until the auction closes?

    You do not need to be online until the auction closes for "Timed or Simulcast Auctions". The platform that we utlize allows you to set a maximum bid, so if other bids are tendered the system will automatically increase your bid to the maximum. If the item is won for less than your maximum you will purchase the lot for that amount and not your maximum bid. 


    You will be notified by the platform if your max bid is exceeded, but we caution bidders not to rely upon these notifications as they can be delayed due to technology. You do have to be onsite for live auctions.
