Commercial Truck, Trailer & Bus auctions: what the numbers say

There are 6,116 commercial truck, trailer & bus auctions open right now across 47 states, with the most in Florida (282), Texas (276), Tennessee (174), North Carolina (156) and Alabama (144). Most of them are on Proxibid, J.J. Kane and Purple Wave. The biggest sellers at the moment are School Board of Clay County, Bossier Parish School Board, State of Georgia and Lee County Public Schools. The next to close is 2000 Freightliner FL112 SBA 6x4 T/A Car Carrier at $6,000.

Over the past year the UX Search sold archive recorded 3,720 closed commercial truck, trailer & bus sales, with a middle hammer price of $6,850 and a range from $1 to $426,000. By state, Florida ran about $9,458 (302 sales), Ohio ran about $4,980 (254 sales) and New York ran about $8,050 (238 sales). The buyer's premium, sales tax and pickup are on top of the hammer price, and each sale on this page links to the listing it came from.

Prices at government auction follow the seller, not the item: a state fleet that serviced a truck on schedule sells it for more than a county that ran it into the ground, and a sale that closes at 2 PM on a Tuesday draws fewer bidders than one that closes Sunday night. The listing's photos, the seller's name and the location tell you most of what you need; the sold prices on this page tell you the rest.

More auction sites for commercial trucks

UX Search links to these auction sites and is not affiliated with them. Bidding, payment and pickup happen on each site, under its own rules.

Before you bid

  • Check the CDL and paperwork. Know what license you need to drive it home and whether it needs inspections or DOT work.
  • Count the fees. Buyer’s premiums and documentation fees vary by auction. Check each site’s terms before you bid.
  • Check hours and records. Look for hour-meter readings, service records and photos of wear points such as pins, bushings, tracks and tires.
  • Plan pickup or shipping. Most auctions give you only a few days to remove what you buy. Line up a shipper before the auction ends.
