Insurance Auto Auctions Adds New Locations in Texas

Insurance Auto Auctions (IAA), an online salvage auto auction company and wholly-owned subsidiary of KAR Auction Services, Inc., announced two new locations in Texas, including McAllen and Lubbock, respectively, increasing its footprint to a total of 12 auction locations in the state. Both locations are critical to the company’s continued expansion in giving providers more locations to sell their vehicles and global buyers more cars to bid on and win.

“IAA has over 160 locations backed with the best service-minded team in the industry,” said Tom O’Brien, chief executive officer at Insurance Auto Auctions, Inc. “Our continued expansion is a result of increased demand for our inventory and to provide greater convenience for both our buyers and sellers. Our goal is to provide the best inventory and selection to our global buyers in over 110 countries.”

McAllen, Texas is located at the southern tip known as the Rio Grande Valley, and is minutes away from the U.S.-Mexico Border and one hour away from the Gulf Coast. Lubbock is located in the northwestern part of the state serving much of West Texas. In addition to the primary storage area at these locations, IAA has dedicated additional acres to handle catastrophe (CAT) situations for these regions.

The auction centers offer auctions in six languages, including: English, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, French, Polish and Russian. A portion of IAA’s vehicles are sold and exported to foreign countries, which further strengthens its philosophy of choice and flexibility with “anywhere” access and mobile technology.
