There is plenty of parking at the auction warehouse, which is right across the street from the Main Post Office. December 11, 1996 we opened Capital Auto Auction of Philadelphia. We now have three big auctions per week held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays due to the great response in Philadelphia. We are right off of Route 95 at Cottman Avenue. You can’t miss our sign!

the driver was so kind and understanding. He knew I had made the right decision about the car but also that I was feeling sentimental. He was encouraging and kind. I appreciated it. He also clearly knew what he was doing in towing the car.
