How do i find out about Local Car Auctions?

Answer 1

The easy way is find the newspaper or go to local search engine and type the "car auction" for the information

Answer 2

If you want to find out about local car auctions you should join a car auction membership site. It will give you instant access to info on a number of auctions taking place near you, as well as the cars they have for sell. It beats looking around in the newspaper and waiting for something to show up there, which everybody else will know about too.

Answer 3

Ask any car dealer, most car auctions are not open to the public a such. Most of them are for dealers and salvage re-builders but not for john Q public. This is probably a good thing as at the "Auction" most often you buy what you see and are not able to start them up and have very little chance to look into the car very much. It is not like going to the local car dealer and checking out a car and then having the chance to bid on it. Many of the cars there have been wrecked and the insurance company has totaled them out. Another th9ing that you will find at the auction are the vehicles that have been in flood water. No one is going to tell you that this vehicle has been in flood water and they will be late models and look just great. By the way the cost of taken a flood vehicle and fixing it back up to meet standars again would be just about 50% more that the car cost to begin with so a vehicle that costs $40,000 new and is now three years old and you can pick this up for a song will end up costing you about $60,000  this isn't a good deal and be worth about $25,000.

      There are a few estates sales that sell a few cars, these sales are listed in your local news paper, as well as county court house sales and impoundment lot sales

Answer 4

You can find out about Government auctions (police, etc. with cars, trucks, motorcycles, guns, etc.) that are not widely publicized. They usually are required to run a very small article in the newspaper. If you subscribe to their lists, though, you'll be notified when they're coming to your area.
