When people ask me how an organiza-
tion the size of Insurance Auto Auctions
(IAA) operates so smoothly, I like to tell
them our success is a result of teamwork
in action. Whether it's internal or external,
our combined achievements depend on a
network of talented people with a passion
for the automotive auction industry work-
ing toward a common goal.
One thing is for certain, I always call
out the contributions of one specific
group-- our incredible network of partners
in the towing and recovery industry. With
more than 165 facilities across North
America, and thousands of vehicles set
for auction every week, tow operators are
the lifeblood of IAA. Without them, every-
thing would come to a screeching halt.
There's a trend happening that we
don't think is right. In the course of doing
business, it's common to see abandoned
vehicles taking up valuable space on lots
and preventing many from operating at
full capacity. Until now, these vehicles
have typically been disposed of via the
scrap yard, a process that greatly dimin-
ishes their potential value. It isn't fair for
you to lose out because someone chose
to abandon their vehicle on your premis-
es, so we're doing something to change
that.
IAA is proud to bring our Online
Exclusive: Impound Auction Series to the
Sunshine State. This event represents
many firsts for Florida tow operators,
including:
• A new opportunity to get the most
out of the abandoned vehicles on
your lot.
