Attention Auction Customers
WE ARE NOT ABLE TO GIVE OUT 21 DAY TEMP PERMITS. 

This means you will have to get license plates from the DMV or vehicles will need to be towed out 
either by a licensed Flat bed/wrecker or a tow dolly (at least 2 wheels/1 axel off the ground) or vehicle trailer. 
If you purchase a bill of sale for your vehicle, we will have them ready immediately after the auction and keep them in the office until Monday at 8:00am when we will mail any remaining Bills of Sale out.

This is the tentative inventory for the next auction
