Pickup Truck & Van auctions: what the numbers say

There are 5,157 pickup truck & van auctions open right now across 48 states, with the most in Texas (548), California (326), Florida (306), Illinois (211) and Missouri (199). Most of them are on Proxibid, GovDeals and J.J. Kane. The biggest sellers at the moment are State of Utah, State of Nebraska, Virginia, Commonwealth of and State of Georgia. The next to close is (Tampa, FL) 2021 RAM 1500 Classic (1636287 ) at $17,500.

Over the past year the UX Search sold archive recorded 8,246 closed pickup truck & van sales, with a middle hammer price of $12,025 and a range from $1 to $75,500. By state, California ran about $13,400 (664 sales), Florida ran about $12,838 (546 sales) and Texas ran about $12,675 (538 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.

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

  • Count the fees. Most auctions add a buyer’s premium to the winning bid, and some add document or gate fees. Check each site’s terms before you bid.
  • Inspect or have it inspected. Many sales allow previews. Our inspectors directory lists companies that will look at a vehicle for you.
  • Check the VIN. Run a free UX Vehicle History Report on any 17-character VIN before you bid.
  • Know the title. Read whether the vehicle comes with a clean, salvage or bill-of-sale title, and what your state needs to register it.
  • 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.
