Our heuristic: start with what the insurers sold

Copart lists well over a hundred thousand cars. We narrow them with one rule of thumb: a car consigned by an insurance company is more likely to be on its first trip through auction, straight from the claim, while a car from another seller is more likely to have been bought, worked on and put back through. It is a heuristic — a sensible place to start looking, not a verdict on any car. Good cars come from every kind of seller, and an insurer’s lot can still hide a problem.

Copart shows the seller on many lots but gives you no way to search by it. This list does. Every night it reads Copart’s own listing data for every lot with a sale date, keeps the ones an insurer consigned, and applies the filters above. Nothing here is scraped from a third party and nothing is guessed — seller, title, drive status and mileage are Copart’s own fields, reproduced.

Auction history

One click shows whether this exact car has been auctioned before, what it sold for, and how many times it failed to sell.

Before and after

When a previous sale exists, it pulls that listing’s photos and sets them beside today’s, matched angle for angle. You see what the insurer let go of — and what has changed since.

Seller badges on search

Every row in Copart’s own results gets a badge naming the consigning insurer, with a toggle to hide everything else.

What happened across the whole Copart calendar

Copart publishes a catalogue. It does not publish what happened to it. Every line below is counted from our own snapshot of every scheduled lot, taken each night, and the differences between them.

Counted from our own daily snapshot of the Copart calendar — no Copart field carries any of this. "Did not sell" means the sale date passed and Copart put the lot back with a new one; we report a sale day three working days later, once those cars are back. Bid figures are the pre-auction bid on the morning of the sale, not a hammer price. Nothing here is a valuation.

Questions people ask before they bid

Why does it matter who sold the car on Copart?

It is our starting heuristic, not a rule. A car an insurance company consigns is more likely to be on its first trip through auction, straight from the claim; a car from another seller is more likely to have been bought, repaired and put back through. The seller name is a useful first clue to which of those you are looking at — and Copart shows it on many lots but gives you no way to search by it.

What does "minimum bid" mean on a Copart lot?

There is a hidden reserve. If the bidding does not reach it, the car does not sell and Copart puts it back on the calendar with a new date. Counted across every lot that ran in the last month, minimum-bid lots came back unsold about 56% of the time against 31% for pure-sale lots, so a pure sale is close to twice as likely to actually complete.

What does it mean when the same Copart lot keeps reappearing?

It went to auction and nobody met the seller’s price, so it was relisted — typically about four days later. Across the whole Copart calendar roughly 37% of lots that run come back rather than leave. A lot that has come back several times tells you roughly where the seller’s floor is, because you can see what the bidding reached and was refused.

Can a salvage car be exported from the United States?

US Customs requires the original certificate of title, or a certified copy, at least 72 hours before the vehicle leaves (19 CFR 192.2). A salvage title is a title, so it clears that test. A Certificate of Destruction, a Non-Repairable brand or a bill-of-sale-only lot is not a title and never becomes one, so those can only leave as parts. Whether your destination country will then register the car is a separate question with a different answer in every country.

Does Copart tell you whether a car has been sold at auction before?

No. Copart publishes what is for sale, not what happened to it — the public listing data carries no run count and no completed-sale flag. Third-party archives fill some of the gap but have no page at all for most live lots. The free Chrome extension on this site checks two archives and adds the runs it has watched itself.

Is this list free?

During the beta, yes: sign up with your email and we send you a key to the full filterable list of every insurer-sold lot. Five cars a night also go free to the Telegram channels (the premium channels get twenty), and the browser extension is free and needs no account.
