Extreme weather incidents are sadly becoming more frequent due to climate change, so here at Copart we know how important it is to keep investing into land, transport, and technology.

Storage  

Most importantly, we offer unrivalled nationwide storage capabilities to our customers, essential in the event of catastrophes, and offering more than double the land bank of our main competitors combined.

With strategic positioning of our sites across the country, we ensure that we are close to our communities and customers when they need us, collecting and handling vehicles quickly, efficiently, and with minimal environmental impact.

Standards 

And with the globally recognized ISO 22301 Business Continuity Management Standard under our belt (as part of a suite of six ISO standards under which we operate) we help our customers and communities to prepare for, respond to, and recover from, unexpected and disruptive incidents.

Services 

We have a robust and well-established emergency response strategy in place, and a specialist Surge Management Team always on standby to be deployed to affected areas at short notice.

Our team uses a wide range of market-leading mobile technology solutions to assess, image, and process thousands of vehicles on-site with minimal disruption to local communities and businesses.

Over the last few months alone, they have handled the aftermath of extensive flooding in Derbyshire and Suffolk, and most recently, the Luton Airport fire which damaged over 1,400 vehicles.

Flood or fire damage to vehicles can significantly reduce returns at auction, but Copart’s exclusive partnership with Polygon, a specialist drying and decontamination business, helps our customers to recover the best possible value.

So, whatever might be around the corner, our customers and their policyholders can be assured that we will always be there for them when they need us most.
