Global leader in online vehicle remarketing and recycling Copart UK has opened a new Operation Centre in St Helens, Merseyside.
St Helens is the fourth new Copart Operation Centre to open its doors in recent months, joining Corby, East Kilbride, and Gloucester.
The company’s purchase of this 16-acre site, which was formerly leased by Cazoo, is strategically placed between Manchester and Liverpool, and increases their vehicle storage capacity by 50% in the Northwest.
Jane Pocock, CEO of Copart UK and Ireland, said, “It’s a hugely exciting time for Copart as investment into our ‘Land and Expand’ strategy continues to gather pace, future-proofing our business to support the needs of our customers.
“We’re acquiring even more land and expanding many of our existing sites to enable growth, handle increasing EV volumes, and expand the reach of our industry-leading emergency response services.”
St Helens will provide further storage capacity for up to 24,000 vehicles in the Northwest. The first auction at this site is due to take place on 28 October.
