Sacramento Car Auctions Online for Dealers
Auction Direct Network is a California online car auction that Sacramento-area dealers join from the lot or the office. The cars are located around the state, so instead of a day on the road you review the condition report and engine audio, bid live, and choose pickup or delivery within California at checkout.
Private-party listings on the Auction Direct Marketplace are open in Southern California only, so this page is about dealer auctions and buying.

Inspecting cars in person costs a day, and when the car is in another part of the state it costs a weekend. With Auction Direct, the inspection comes to you:
- Photos of every car, plus a condition report with condition lights.
- Engine audio, so you can hear the start and the idle.
- Whether the title is ready, shown on each listing.
- Live bidding, proxy bids, Buy Now and offers, so you can buy on your schedule.
Getting the car to Sacramento
At checkout you choose pickup from the seller or door-to-door transportation within California. The transportation price is shown at checkout, so you can compare it with sending your own driver or carrier.
Selling your wholesale units
Sacramento dealers can list trade-ins and aged inventory too. List with a guided condition report, set a reserve and an optional Buy Now price, and review offers before or after the auction. Listings are open to licensed dealers registered across California, not only the ones nearby.
Selling your personal car in Sacramento?
The Auction Direct Marketplace, where private owners list their own cars, opens first in Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego counties, because the buyer picks the car up at the seller's home. It isn't open to Sacramento-area cars at launch.
If you're selling privately in the meantime, our free guides walk through the California paperwork: the title, the smog certificate and the 5-day release of liability.
