by | Jul 3, 2024

In yet another strand of our ongoing growth programme, we’re pleased to announce a new Operation Centre in Chelmsford, Essex.

This new 30-acre site will provide additional vehicle storage capacity in the southeast region of the UK, alongside our existing Operation Centres in Colchester, Rochford, Sandwich, Sandy, and Wisbech.

Situated in close proximity to London, Copart Chelmsford will increase vehicle storage capacity in this region by 25%, reducing road miles and increasing our online auctions.

“We’re very excited to announce our plans to develop a new Operation Centre in Chelmsford, which will provide annual storage capacity for 35,000 vehicles. The Essex area is growing rapidly with increasing levels of housing development, so Copart Chelmsford will be a key location for us to handle future demand and further strengthen our unrivalled operational capabilities in the southeast.”                          – Jane Pocock, CEO of Copart UK & Ireland

There will be more announcements to come as we continue to acquire more land, expand existing sites, and increase our range of industry leading products and services.
