Monthly Auctions Open to the Public
Auto Auctions in Evansville held the third Wednesday of every month
Feller Towing & Recovery INC conducts a public auto auction on the third Wednesday of each month in Evansville. Vehicles are available for inspection prior to bidding, and participation requires arrival before the scheduled start time to review auction rules, register, and examine available inventory before the first lot opens.
The auction format follows lot-by-lot bidding, with each vehicle presented individually and sold to the highest bidder once the auctioneer closes the lot. Inventory varies month to month based on vehicles available for sale, and no two auctions feature identical stock. Attendees should confirm current auction details, vehicle list, and any updated terms before planning to participate, as information changes between events.
Check current auction vehicle listings and participation requirements before attending your first event.
How the Auction Process Works
Auction day begins with registration, where participants provide identification and review payment terms and title transfer procedures. Vehicles are displayed in a designated area, allowing bidders to inspect condition, check VINs, and note visible damage or missing components before bidding starts. No test drives are permitted, so evaluation relies entirely on visual inspection and any documentation provided with the vehicle.
After the auction closes, winning bidders complete payment according to the terms outlined during registration, typically requiring full payment the same day or within a narrow window. You receive title paperwork and a release allowing vehicle removal from the lot, with responsibility for arranging your own towing or transport if the vehicle is not drivable. Vehicles must be removed within the specified timeframe to avoid storage fees.
Feller Towing & Recovery INC does not imply or represent that auction inventory originates from repossessions. Vehicles come from various sources, and the auction simply provides a recurring public sale opportunity for those seeking to purchase used vehicles in as-is condition.
Questions Before Your First Auction
First-time auction participants in Evansville often ask about registration, payment methods, and what happens after winning a bid.
What do I need to bring to register for the auction?
Bring valid government-issued identification and be prepared to provide payment information. Registration occurs before bidding begins, and some auctions require a deposit or bidder number assignment before you can participate.
How do I know which vehicles will be available at the next auction?
Contact Feller Towing & Recovery INC before the third Wednesday to request the current vehicle list. Inventory is not published far in advance and changes as vehicles become available for sale.
What payment methods are accepted after winning a bid?
Payment terms are specified during registration and typically include cash, certified funds, or other methods outlined in the auction rules. Personal checks may not be accepted, so confirm requirements before bidding.
Can I inspect the vehicles before the auction starts?
Yes, a pre-auction inspection period allows bidders to examine vehicles, check for damage, and review any available documentation. Arrive early to allow adequate time for inspection, as bidding begins promptly at the scheduled start time.
What happens if the vehicle I win does not run?
You are responsible for arranging towing or transport off the auction lot within the specified removal period. Vehicles are sold as-is, and non-running condition does not affect the sale or your obligation to remove the vehicle.
Auto auctions at Feller Towing & Recovery INC occur monthly on a fixed schedule, providing a consistent opportunity for buyers seeking used vehicles at competitive prices. Call (812) 471-1177 to confirm the next auction date, request the current vehicle list, or ask about participation details before attending.
