Before you bid on a car at Copart Rancho Cucamonga
- Read the listing closely. Check the photos, damage description, title type and any condition report before bidding; Copart's Member Protection Pledge on copart.com explains the limited protections that apply after you buy.
- Price the whole deal. Your bid plus Copart's buyer fees, any broker fee, transport from Rancho Cucamonga and repairs. See what a car really costs at auction.
- Plan pickup before you win. Copart sets a pickup deadline after payment and charges storage once it passes. Confirm the current deadline on the listing or yard page.
- Know the title you're buying. A salvage vehicle can't be driven in California until it is revived and re-registered. See salvage titles in California.
