Transport and title
Two separate problems that people treat as one. The car can move before the title clears, or after, and which one applies is set at the sale.
1 · Payment
Full payment, including the buyer's premium and fees, within two business days of the hammer.
2 · Release
A gate pass is issued once funds clear. Nothing leaves the yard without one.
3 · If there is a blue light
The title is not present. Funds are held, the gate pass is withheld, and the vehicle stays here until the title is recorded.
4 · Collection window
Free storage to the Monday after the sale. After that, daily storage applies.
5 · Transport
We will hand a vehicle to any carrier you arrange, open or enclosed, with the gate pass in the driver's hand.
6 · Title transfer
Titles are mailed to the registered buyer once recorded. Typical window is 10 to 20 business days when a duplicate is involved.
In our words
Why it is built this way
The blue light exists because a car and its title do not always arrive together, and pretending otherwise is how buyers end up with a vehicle they cannot register.
Under a blue light nothing moves. That is inconvenient and it is the point: the money is held on the buyer's side of the transaction until the paperwork is real.
We do not arrange transport ourselves and we do not take a commission on it. Any carrier you choose can collect against a gate pass.
