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!

My car was picked up a day later than I was told. The tow truck driver was very nice and did call me late in the day to let me know and was communicative on the second day as well. He loaded up the car quickly and again was very nice.

The staff on the phone were excellent and I understood the process. The tow truck operator did not call ahead and it was late in the day so I was waiting and wondering for a long time if he would show. He was nice enough when he did show, however.
