Copart Chicago auto transport

Beat the storage clock
Yard storage compounds daily and usually costs more than upgrading to a guaranteed pickup date. Lock a Priority slot the day the unit is paid for.
Winch-equipped only
Non-running units are routed only to carriers whose trailers carry a winch, so nobody shows up unable to load.
Questions about Copart shipping
How fast can a carrier pick up from Copart Chicago?
Most dispatches out of Chicago are assigned within 24-48 hours of the gate pass being issued. Priority service targets a firm next-day pickup, which is usually cheaper than paying another day of yard storage.
Does Copart charge storage while I arrange transport?
Yes. Salvage yards allow a short free-storage window after payment clears, then bill daily. Book transport the same day you win the unit.
What does the carrier need at the gate?
Lot number, buyer number, the release or gate pass, and the name on the account. TankWorldWide puts all of it on the dispatch sheet so the driver is not turned away.
