We’re pleased to announce the opening of a new Copart Operation Centre in Stafford, further strengthening our operational network as part of our ongoing investment in capacity, resilience and service for our customers.
The new Stafford location represents an important strategic addition to Copart’s nationwide network, increasing capacity in the West Midlands and reinforcing our ability to respond to growing customer demand and changing vehicle volumes.
Copart Stafford will manage vehicles through every stage of the remarketing process, from collection and secure storage to preparation, online auction and onward movement.
Located under 30 miles from Copart’s Wolverhampton Operation Centre, Stafford will increase our presence in the West Midlands, strengthening our ability to collect, process and move vehicles efficiently for sellers, including major insurance companies and automotive customers.
This additional capacity also strengthens the resilience of our wider operational network, helping us to manage peaks in demand and respond quickly when vehicle volumes increase following severe weather or other major events.
For Copart Members, Stafford will provide access to an even wider choice of vehicles through our online auctions, while giving buyers in the region another convenient collection location, helping to save time and reduce onward transport distances.
Phil Briggs, Director of Operation Centres, Transport and SVO at Copart UK, said:
“As demand for Copart’s vehicle remarketing and recycling services continues to grow, we’re continuing to invest strategically in our operational network to ensure we have the capacity, resilience, and geographical coverage our customers need.
Stafford is an important part of that investment, giving us greater capacity and flexibility across the West Midlands, and bringing the total number of Copart locations across the UK and Ireland to 34.
Expanding our network in this way not only strengthens the geographical reach and resilience of our operational capabilities, but also helps to reduce road miles, fuel use, and associated carbon emissions as part of our ongoing Copart Cares ESG strategy.”
The first auction at Copart Stafford is scheduled to take place on 3rd November 2026.
