Attention Auction Customers
Due to changes at the Department of Vehicle Services and their new MNDRIVE system we are
NO LONGER ABLE TO GIVE OUT 21 DAY TEMP PERMITS.

This means all 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.
At this point, we are only able to offer next day pick up of “Bills of Sale” in order to help speed up the process for you. If you purchase a bill of sale for your vehicle, we will have them ready by Friday at 8:30am 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

Any questions on inventory or auction terms must be directed to the impound lot staff
