MANHEIM – Beginning this week, Manheim will add 12 more sites to its pilot program for running cars down physical lanes. This change brings the total number of Manheim sites offering live, physical sales to 14. The added sites include: Manheim Ohio, Manheim Dallas, Manheim Fort Myers, Manheim Lakeland, Manheim Pittsburgh, Manheim San Antonio, Manheim Albany, Manheim Cincinnati, Manheim Dallas-Fort Worth, Manheim Omaha, Manheim Texas Hobby and Manheim Nevada.  

“During our first two live, physical sales at Manheim Nashville and Manheim Daytona Beach, we received very positive feedback from dealers who told us they were excited about the return of in-lane physical sales, despite running limited unit types,” said Alan Lang, Manheim division vice president. We continue to be intentional with our decision to expand the program with health and safety remaining at the center of everything we do.  Should the data continue to support a safe environment for team members and clients, we anticipate adding more locations.”  

Additional Updates

  • Manheim launched its pilot program for running cars down physical auction lanes on November 10 at Manheim Nashville, and followed by Manheim Daytona Beach on November 11.  In-lane physical sales will follow Manheim’s safety guidelines.  Office access will remain closed and all dealers are required to wear face coverings, practice social distancing and adhere to state and local guidelines. 

  • Manheim’s Lot Vision vehicle tracking system is now in place at 21 Manheim sites. For a full list of Manheim’s Lot Vision locations, go to www.mymanheim.com/lotvision
