Copart Announces Opening of Second Denver Area Location

Copart opens 3rd location in Colorado 

Copart Denver Central hosts online auctions every Thursday at noon 

Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ: CPRT), a global online vehicle auction company, is proud to announce the opening of and first online auction at its third location in Colorado. This is Copart’s second location in the Denver metropolitan area. 

“In May, we announced the opening of and first auction at our new Colorado Springs location, then we expanded our original Denver area location, and now we are pleased to announce the opening and online auctions at our second location that will serve the Denver area,” said Jay Adair, Copart CEO. “We are excited to further accommodate our growth in the online auction space with this new location.”

Copart’s Colorado facilities are located in Brighton, Colorado Springs, and no in Denver at 6464 Downing Street. Online auctions for the Denver, Brighton and Colorado Springs facilities will be at noon, central, on Thursdays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, respectively. Copart’s online auctions take place at www.copart.com and not only offer automobiles, they also offer a variety of boats, RVs, ATVs, motorcycles, exotics and more.

“Not only do we strive to provide an unmatched experience, but we are always looking to contribute to the safety and quality of life of our local communities,” said Sean Eldridge, Copart’s Chief Operating Officer. “Recently, we deployed our catastrophe response team to Colorado Springs to provide support to the areas affected by the recent hail storms.”

Copart’s catastrophe response team is made up of an elite group of personnel who are ready to respond to weather-related catastrophes on short notice to help communities rebuild.

Within the first 48 hours after severe hail storms hit Colorado Springs, Copart’s catastrophe response team began helping impacted communities recover by removing damaged vehicles. The hail storms produced enough damage that insurance companies declared it a catastrophic weather event. 

As a proud partner to local communities, Copart offers local law enforcement, fire departments and other agencies a safe training environment. Copart locations are commonly used by law enforcement agencies as a controlled environment to train K-9 units to track narcotics and explosive devices.

"We are excited about the additional opportunities we can provide with our new location, not only for our Denver Members but also the community," said Sean Eldridge, Chief Operating Officer of Copart. “Our work with the Brighton Fire Department is a key example of the way our team is dedicated to building strong relationships within the communities we serve."

Local agencies are encouraged to contact the General Managers at any of Copart’s 160 locations to learn more about conducting training onsite. In addition to supporting local agencies, Copart supports numerous local, regional and national charities.
