Bid Without Licenses

How can I bid without the required business licenses?

If you don’t have the required licenses or credentials, there are still ways for you to win vehicles on Copart.com.

Brokers

Copart can help connect you with a reputable Broker. A Broker is a middleman who holds the right credentials to bid in any state where you don’t have all the licenses and documents required to buy vehicles at auction. If you're an international buyer, Copart can connect you with a Certified Reseller or a Lounge Operator who works in your region.

Brokers provide additional benefits for first-time or one-time-only auction buyers. Brokers know how online auctions work and can help you along the way. They can also guide you through the entire process of searching, inspecting, bidding, winning and shipping a vehicle. Copart only works with established and reputable Brokers.

For international buyers, Certified Reseller or a Copart Lounge operators can help register, bid, buy, and import vehicles.

No License Required Vehicles

No License Required vehicles can be purchased by the general public without a business or dealer’s license under the laws of the state where the vehicle is located. These can be Salvage Title vehicles, vehicles sold at auction by private sellers, or other situations allowed by state laws.
