Fees at a glance

  • Buyer fee on a sliding scale by sale price. For example, a £1,000 car is £225 + VAT on the standard (Fee B) rate. From £10,000 it is 6.5%.
  • Internet bid fee: £59 + VAT for a £1,000 pre-bid, or £69 for a live bid.
  • Lot retrieval fee: £50 + VAT.
  • VAT at 20% on all fees. VAT on the hammer price applies only to VAT-qualifying lots.

Collection tips

  • Pay quickly. Copart charges a late payment fee after its payment window (3 business days when we checked).
  • Book collection through Copart's app or member area with the lot number and release details.
  • Copart can arrange delivery to mainland UK addresses (typically 5–10 days), so compare that with a local recovery quote.
  • Sort your transport before you bid. Storage charges can wipe out a thin margin.
  • Photograph the car when it is loaded, including any damage that wasn't in the listing.
  • Non-runners need a winch or forklift load. Tell the recovery driver up front.
  • Check the V5C and keys situation in the listing. "No V5" lots take longer to sell on.
