So you have decided its time to upgrade your company van or truck and now want to get rid of the old one.
You are going to need to do it quickly but without too much effort and most importantly, you would like a decent return.
Well then you need to start looking at online truck auctions.
The first thing you need to do is find an online truck auction site that is willing to accept a vehicle in your area (most operate nationally so this should not be a problem).
Explain your situation to them and see if they will list your vehicle on their site.
Some auction houses charge a commission to the sellers whilst others charge the buyers so it is worth checking with the site before you decide to list with them.
Then provide them with all of the essential details of your vehicle.
Things like make, model, age, mileage, MOT, any modifications you may have and so on.
You will then need to provide some pictures.
Make sure the vehicle is clean and looks good.
Remember that the bidder won't have seen your vehicle before they decide to bid so this picture is all they have to go off.
Make sure it is a good one because a bad picture can be the difference between a bidding war that creates a huge profit and a lot that sells for just above the minimum price.
Another selling tip is to make sure your description is as positive and attractive as possible.
List all of the benefits of the vehicle and try to think about what attracted you to this car in the first place.
Then read it back or get a friend to read it and ask yourself; would you buy this? After that just give the truck auction site your minimum selling price and wait for the auction.
Hopefully, you'll be able to off load your old commercial truck quickly and take that money to make some flash modifications to your new truck.
