B2B platform for salvage vehicle auctions. Access vehicles from across the country, with detailed photographs, damage diagrams and full technical specifications before you bid. Fast company registration approval, real-time bidding and bank transfer payment with reference. Everything in one place, from auction to award.
The Salvage Auction Platform (LDS) is a comprehensive online solution for the buying and selling of salvage vehicles. It brings the entire process together in one place — vehicle submission, auction, award and payment — with a management backoffice built for professionals who work with salvage every day.
Whether you represent an insurer looking to offload vehicles, an auction house or dealership ready to go digital, or a professional sourcing salvage for repair and resale, this platform was built for you.
The entire process in one place. From vehicle intake to final payment, with no scattered spreadsheets or endless email threads. Every salvage auction is recorded, traceable and organised.
Controlled, professional access. Buyer registration is subject to approval, ensuring only verified companies can bid on salvage vehicles. This protects vehicle value and upholds the integrity of every auction.
Full transparency in every bid. Detailed listings with photographs, damage descriptions and vehicle diagrams, so every buyer knows exactly what they are bidding on.
List your salvage vehicles for auction quickly and without operational overhead. Via a submission link, you send the vehicle details and photographs directly to the platform, which validates them and publishes the auction. Monitor bids, receive the best offer and decide whether to award — always keeping full control over the outcome of each vehicle.
Take your vehicle auctions 100% digital. Manage inventory, set deadlines, track offers in real time and communicate with buyers from a single backoffice. Brand the platform with your own identity and colours, and extend the reach of your auctions well beyond the physical counter.
Access a steady flow of salvage vehicles for repair, dismantling or parts resale. Browse full listings, bid online and track your offers, awards and payments from your own dashboard. Clear rules, transparent processes and straightforward bank transfer payments.
The Salvage Auction Platform can be used under the LDS brand or fully adapted to your company's identity — colours, logo and content — operating as your own salvage auction platform. A white-label solution, maintained and developed by ID Digital.
