  • Single vehicles and larger consignments are both welcome
  • Title status, lien status, and ownership name should be discussed early

What this service covers

Title

Paperwork comes first

The team needs to know whether the title is clean, branded, missing, lender-held, estate-held, or business-owned.

Condition

Disclosures protect the sale

Known mechanical issues, warning lights, missing parts, or prior damage should be shared before listing.

Settlement

Expect a clear closeout

After sale and buyer checkout, the seller process moves through paperwork and settlement according to the consignment terms.

Questions people ask

What can I consign?

Cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, RVs, motorcycles, trailers, fleet units, and other assets may be considered. Call with details for mixed or unusual consignments.

Can I set a reserve?

Reserve strategy can be discussed during intake. A reserve may protect the seller, while no-reserve can create stronger bidder attention.

Do you work with estates or fiduciaries?

Yes. Estate, fiduciary, business, and liquidation situations can be reviewed so documents, authority, pickup, and sale timing are handled correctly.

What if the vehicle does not run?

Non-running vehicles may still be possible, but transport, disclosure, photos, and bidder expectations need to be handled before the sale.
