I'm only going to haul a vehicle that I buy. When setting up the transportation app I take it that need to choose transporter and not tow provider correct?
Correct. It will ask you for the lot number and the bidder number. Also, make sure you schedule your appointment. I've had a few yards less than pleased that I showed up unannounced....but most don't care. Also - thanks for the Carli adjustable trackbar video. I watched it a few months ago when I pulled the 3rd gen out of Copart. I was not sure what was up, but it was a half baked lift from the previous owner.
Hard to say. I've used their transport twice and it was extremely reasonable and about what I'd expect to pay locally. I do know having them manage finding the tow driver, making sure they have all the right info for pickup is much less hassle. If you buy one let us know how it goes.
I just scheduled delivery from a third party directly from the co parts website. The price was very reasonable. I scheduled the transport right before the thanksgiving break so it is taking a while to get sent out.
Yes. They just need your bidder number and a lot number. You can also book transport with Copart or your broker. I’ve used them and it’s generally competitive and less hassle.
@@BootstrapRevival Thanks for the reply, just registered and paid my membership on copart, now registering for autobidmaster. Hoping these fees wont destroy the profits, I’m trying to fix them up and sell them back. I suppose the only way to learn and grow is to try
@@kelpodelpog5395 Hello. May I ask where you live? Not exact address! Just the state would be plenty! Lol. I am starting a car hauling business out of Richmond Va and I am trying gauge this type of business (# of loads /frequency). Thank you for any info and have a great day! Reid Griffin
They call them drive outs. I've seen it happen. I think it depends on the yard. I will warn you - I've bought multiple that say run and drive. That just means it starts and moves....The one I have in the driveway now won't move more than 10 feet. I had another that would puke a quart of oil in a 1/4 mile. All fixable, but not drivable off the auction lot.
I have seen it happen. The front office called it a drive out. I can't promise every yard will let you do that. I will caution you though, I've seen plenty listed as run and drive that could not make it every far. (Blown head gaskets, dumping oil, slipping trans, etc.)
It’s copart policy that every bought vehicle needs to be transported by trailer not driven due to the state not wanting unsafe or broken down vehicles on the road way but nearly 1/3rd the cars I bring out to members at multiple yards are driven out and not enforced.
I am planning to buy a Copart vehicle through bidmaster for an out of state auction and fly down to pick it up and drive it home. Can I drive it right out of copart or will I have to hire a flatbed tow truck driver to get it off the copart lot?
Honestly...I've seen both some say no problem - some say absolutely not. Call the lot and ask if they allow a drive out. I will say I've seen quite a few cars listed as run and drive but are not even close to road worthy. You should check out the shipping price. It may be cheaper than the flight and hassle.
What should i do step by step i bought out of state and paying a company to transport it to my home i don't know them besides the broker making the deal do i give them the gate pass key
Autobidmaster says your purchases HAS to be shipped to you but despite this it seems like they do allow purchasers to pick up vehicles like you did in this video with your own trailer. Is this something you can confirm from experience?
I can confirm 100% I've been able to pick up my own stuff. Pickup is on the Copart side, transport is on the AutoBidMaster side. You need 3 things to pick up a vehicle and any one with that info can do it. 1. Vehicle and storage fees have to be paid. 2. You need the Lot Number 3. You need the winning bidder's number (which happens to be your AutoBidMaster ID# - click your name in the upper right and you'll see it) I've towed one camper out myself, self-towed 4 cars out on my trailer, booked their transport 4 times and had a heavy wrecker tow company pull the motorhome out. If you were having a friend or independent transport company, do it you just give them the info above. Hope that helps.
Absolutely none. I’ve bought 6 in the past few months there. I was a bit freaked out wiring that much for the RV. It worked out. I apologize for the late response - how did it turn out?
It depends on the vehicle. First look at the vehicle you want. On AutoBidMaster on the lower left it will give you an estimated quote. Thats a good sign, that means the vehicle is listed in the normal vehicle category and not heavy or medium duty. If they list an estimate you can just add transport direct to you to your cart when you check out. Here is the kicker, if it says get a custom quote that means that vehicle is listed in the medium/heavy/trailer category. You'll need a custom quote. It is not guaranteed that they will find a transporter to move it in a timely manner. Personally I've had a Range Rover and a 4 door F350 transported in with no issues - but they both had shipping estimates on the bid page. Hope that helps!
Driving an unregistered vehicle on the road is a bad idea. I've always towed mine out on a trailer or had it delivered to my house. Every run and drive car I've bought from copart has needed some amount of work to be reliable.

Very helpful, thank you
Great video! Thanks!
I appreciate you watching!
Hi, I don’t have a dealer license how can I drive a vehicle from the auction to my house without registering it?
What is less expensive copart trailer or a company else
Hard to say. I've used their transport twice and it was extremely reasonable and about what I'd expect to pay locally. I do know having them manage finding the tow driver, making sure they have all the right info for pickup is much less hassle. If you buy one let us know how it goes.

@@nachosti1232 Me too! Sale was the day before Thanksgiving, and it has not been picked up yet. Hoping for tomorrow!
Can you hire a tow truck company to take it home if I do not have a trailer myself?
Yes. They just need your bidder number and a lot number. You can also book transport with Copart or your broker. I’ve used them and it’s generally competitive and less hassle.

@@juliocruz5617 my broker had a towing service that i ended up having to use. It was like $200
Nice. Can u pick vehicle from NV COPART to Freeport TX
Sorry, not for hire. I just haul my own projects.
Hey bro! I saw in your video a truck loading 3 cars at once. Could you please guide how to order such truck in U-Haul or somewhere else ?
Not sure I know how to help with that one. I’ve used u-ship but that was for a single vehicle.
Can you drive a clear titled vehicle off the lot if you are not a dealer and can actually get the car insured?
They call them drive outs. I've seen it happen. I think it depends on the yard. I will warn you - I've bought multiple that say run and drive. That just means it starts and moves....The one I have in the driveway now won't move more than 10 feet. I had another that would puke a quart of oil in a 1/4 mile. All fixable, but not drivable off the auction lot.
So if I bought a car can my buddy go pick it up and just register on the Copart transportation app?
Yes. After it’s paid for he needs your bidder number and the lot number.
Also - use the schedule feature ahead of time. I had one yard one time give me grief that I just showed up - but they loads me right away.
Great video! If i purchase a trailer, can i hook it up to my truck? or does transport need to be arranged for it?
I bought an RV camp trailer and they let me tow it out with my truck.
@@BootstrapRevival awesome! Can you tow it without plates? Or what are you supposed to do in that case?
@@HANGARPerformance Copart wont issue plates. I printed off a temp trip permit from my state for a few bucks.
So you can pick it up with your Own Truck and my state allows trip permits
You can pick it up yourself. I would recommend not driving them out as they might have hidden issues. Let us know how it goes!

Can I drive off with a vechicle if it’s hot no damage ?

Does it have to be a full trailer or can it be a car dolly as well???
I would like to know this as well. Can I bring a car dolly instead of a full trailer?

If you booked transport through the broker they will take care of the gate code and lot number

Some places will let you but other won't. Some of the worker are funny

No issues with autobidmaster? Im losing sleep over having to wire funds thinking that Ill never get to actually pick up the car.
Absolutely none. I’ve bought 6 in the past few months there. I was a bit freaked out wiring that much for the RV. It worked out. I apologize for the late response - how did it turn out?
Can I use a uhual car hauler trailer?
Absolutely. I’ve seen both U-Haul trailers and U-Haul tow dollys being loaded there.
How much did u buy the car for
I think the winning bid was $1,300.

Can you transport a cargo van from Hampton VA to columbia sc. Serious inquiry
Thats not a gig for me. I appreciate you asking. Have you checked their bookable transport?
They will hold the title if you owe money, until you pay it off .
No, you have to pay in full before it is released from the yard.
@@BootstrapRevival they must have change cause they held my title until I sent the money I owe for storage . I went thru it already.
Hey that’s me in the loader no way
