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!

As a disabled veteran, I was happy to donate my vehicle to DAV. The process was easy, the representative who scheduled my pickup was friendly, and the towing company was on time. Everything went smoothly.
