How It Works
How Export Works
Every vehicle we sell follows the same disciplined process — from sourcing to delivery at your door. No shortcuts, no surprises, no stage skipped.
Sourcing & Acquisition
Vehicles enter the collection through vetted auctions, private sales, and a dealer network — never an anonymous listing. Before a vehicle is accepted, we verify the title is clean, the history report is consistent, and the seller can substantiate ownership. Vehicles that don't pass this first check are never listed.
Inspection & Documentation
A mechanical inspection, VIN and history check, and title verification produce a written condition report for every vehicle. This report — not a sales pitch — is what a buyer evaluates the vehicle against, especially when they can't see it in person before purchase.
Export Compliance
We prepare the U.S.-side paperwork every export requires: bill of sale, export certificate, and bill of lading, filed in line with U.S. export regulations. Emissions and import requirements at the destination are the buyer's responsibility to verify locally — we tell you this upfront rather than let it become a surprise at customs.
Shipping & Logistics
Most vehicles ship RoRo (roll-on/roll-off) from a Florida port; higher-value or collector vehicles ship in an enclosed container for extra protection. Transit is insured, and estimated timelines vary by destination region — we confirm a specific window before you commit.
Customs & Delivery
On arrival, your local customs broker clears the vehicle using the documentation package we've already prepared. From there, it's delivered to the port or your door, depending on what you've arranged locally.

Common Questions
Most countries worldwide, subject to U.S. export regulations and any destination-specific restrictions. Confirm your country during a qualified inquiry.
Yes — title verification happens during Stage 2, before a vehicle is ever listed.
Not currently — buyers typically arrange financing independently in their home country. Ask us and we'll tell you honestly if that's changed.
