In addition, we have instituted a $25.00 fee for our assistance in loading a vehicle onto a trailer, flatbed, or other equipment used to haul a vehicle from our auction.

We appreciate that any rise in fees is not ideal.  Yet, you know that operating overhead often surges over time, most recently in our costs for equipment, fuel, personnel, court proceedings, and the general expenses of running an auction. Therefore, these adjustments were necessary to maintain the same premium quality of auction services to which our customers are accustomed. 

As most of you are aware, our company and our auction customers have enjoyed great successes working together, and we truly appreciate your business. For your convenience, we wanted to inform you of these adjustments as soon as possible. Despite these changes, our fees remain competitive in the vehicle auction business, and ensure the best possible auction experience for our customers. 

We appreciate your support and look forward to continuing to work with you in the future.

Yours Sincerely,

McGann & Chester, LLC
