AUTO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What kind of vehicles are for sale, and how can I preview them? 
A vehicle listing is posted on the Goodwill Web site the Wednesday before each auction. A complete sales list can be picked up from the auction site’s office the morning of the sale. It lists the vehicles in the order they will be auctioned. The sales list contains the year, make and model for each vehicle.

Visitors may preview the vehicles from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. the Friday preceding the auction or arrive at the auction site one hour before the sale begins.

Test drives are not available. All vehicles are sold in an “as-is” condition with no guarantees or warranties expressed or implied.

How do I register as a bidder at the auction?
Before the auction begins, all bidders must register for a bidder number at the office. A $100 cash deposit is required and is applied toward a purchase or refunded without purchase. Checks, debit cards and credit cards are not accepted.

How do I pay for a vehicle?
The Goodwill Auto Auction accepts cash, money orders or certified checks only. Personal checks, debit cards and credit cards are not accepted. Full payment must be made by 5 p.m. on the Monday following the auction.

When must I remove the purchased vehicle from the lot?
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to remove the vehicle from the lot by 5 p.m. on the Tuesday following the auction. Any car exiting the lot must have a dealer plate, be registered with a valid plate or be towed from the lot.

How do I get the title for the purchased vehicle?
All vehicles will be sold with a title. The automobiles must be re-titled in the purchaser’s name within 31 days. All titles will be conveyed to the new owner in good faith that the donor will not be contacted. Anyone contacting a donor will not be allowed to participate in future auctions.
