We run your auction’s transport — block to buyer, recovery to lane.
Carpool moves your consignments and sold units on a controlled carrier network, with VIN-level visibility and a documented chain of custody on every move. Fully managed for inbound, repo, outbound, and digital sales programs. Faster turns for consignors and buyers, fewer post-sale disputes, capacity that flexes with sale-day spikes.
Built for the pace of the lane.
Auctions don't run on average performance. The right transport partner protects your reputation with buyers, your speed-to-sale, and your margins on every consignment.
Bundled loads. Lower cost per unit.
Vehicles consolidated into shared loads across our network. Fewer empty miles for carriers, lower per-unit cost for you, faster turn times for buyers.
Capacity that matches your volume.
13,000+ vetted carriers, dispatched fast — even for last-minute consignment swings, post-sale rushes, and seasonal volume spikes.
Operable, inoperable, anything in between.
Repo lots, off-lease returns, dealer trades, specialty units. Right equipment, right driver, regardless of condition or origin.
Every vehicle that moves through your lanes.
Auction logistics isn't one workflow — it's six. Carpool handles each one with the right equipment, the right documentation, and the right driver experience.
Lease returns & remarketing
End-to-end remarketing programs — lease returns, fleet pulls, and consignor flows handled at scale.
Recovery to lane
Repossessed vehicles moved from recovery lots to auction prep, with documentation that holds up at every step.
Dealer cars to the block
Recurring weekly schedules to pick up dealer consignments — single units or full loads, on the cadence your sellers expect.
Inoperable & specialty
Jump boxes, winches, rollbacks. Whatever the condition, the right equipment is dispatched the first time.
Consolidated lane moves
Single car moves bundled into a load — the lower-cost backbone of every high-volume auction operation.
Auction to dealer lot
Buyer delivery is usually the dealer's problem to solve. Partner with Carpool to run it from your block instead — a better buyer experience, and a new revenue line for the auction.

Every shipment runs on the same platform: a controlled carrier network, VIN-level visibility, and digital documentation captured at every step.

Carpool as your auction's transport layer.
When you want to move beyond self-serve, Carpool runs three managed programs designed for the operational shape of an auction.
Vehicles to your lanes.
Repo, off-lease, fleet, and dealer consignment moved into your lanes on a programmatic schedule. Block-day reliability, consignor-level reporting, and photo-verified pickup condition.
Talk about InboundVehicles to your buyers.
Post-sale transport from your block to the buyer's gate. Real-time tracking, lane-level performance reporting, and digital chain of custody to keep buyer disputes from starting.
Talk about OutboundTransport inside your platform.
API integrations with digital sales channels. Quote, dispatch, and track post-sale moves from the same flow that closed the sale — no second portal, no handoff gaps.
Talk about DigitalWhen the gavel drops, the experience is just starting.
The buyer's view of your auction is shaped by what happens after the sale — how fast the unit shows up, what condition it's in, and how visible the move was along the way. Carpool exists to make that part of your operation as predictable as the lane itself.
The short answers.
How do we get set up to ship with Carpool?
Three steps. Click Connect with Carpool, complete the contact form, and our team reaches out to set up your account. Once you're live, you can quote, book, track, and pay invoices through the platform.
Do you handle dealer consignments and lease returns?
Yes. We run weekly consignment schedules to pull single units or full loads of dealer cars, and we move off-lease and fleet returns from repo lots, residences, businesses, and dealerships.
Can you ship inoperable vehicles from repo lots?
Yes. Repo and in-op moves are a core part of what we do. Our team coordinates appointment scheduling and equipment planning end-to-end. Drivers carry jump boxes, winches, and equipment varies from rollbacks to flatbeds to handle vehicles in any condition.
What equipment does your network run?
Open and enclosed haulers of all sizes, flatbeds, wedge, rollbacks, ball-hitch trailers, 5th wheel, winches, and jump boxes. The right equipment is matched to the move at dispatch — not figured out at pickup.
Are vehicle condition reports required?
Yes. Every vehicle gets a complete condition report at pickup and delivery, with photo verification stored against the VIN. It's how we keep claims rare — and resolve them fast when they happen.
How do Carpool's managed programs work?
Every auction program is managed. Inbound, Outbound, and Digital each come with a dedicated Carpool ops point of contact who runs lanes, scheduling, exceptions, and reporting on your behalf — with the team behind them scaled to your volume. Your staff still quotes, books, and tracks through the portal, API, or browser extension whenever they want direct access. Most auctions start with one flow (consignor pickups, post-sale buyer delivery, or digital sales integration) and expand as volume grows.
