How do you obtain all these cars? Do you purchase from insurance companies for the most part?
@awsomo53Ай бұрын
Insurance companies will only send them vehicles worthy of crushing. Most come from tow yards, the city or random people. These cars are mostly all something you'd put on liability insurance anyway. Insurance will send most anything worth repairing to copart or IAA for be sold. Im sure they buy some from these places but that's probably not their primary business.
