Register to take part in the bidding
& receive your own buyers number.

Registering to bid is free. Before you can start bidding at an auction, you need to complete a ‘Buyer Registration Card’ which is available to you at the front desk.

By filling in this card you agree to the Southside Auto Auctions ‘Terms & Conditions of Auction Sale’. You will need to provide current proof of identity – a driver’s license or passport to register. Once the card is completed and signed you will receive your ‘Bidders Number’.

Bid for the vehicle and pay your deposit.

To bid on a vehicle you must get the attention of the Auctioneer by either holding up your hand or waving your Buyer Number Card. Bidding usually increases in $500, $250 or $100 amounts at a time, however the Auctioneer can nominate a higher or lower amount at his discretion. You cannot withdraw a bid once you have made it.

If your bid is successful you will be requested to hold up your Bidders Number and pay a deposit at the fall of the hammer.

Pay the balance owed and collect your car.

The balance of money owed on the vehicle (after your deposit) must be paid by 4:00pm the next business day. A Buyer’s premium is applicable to each vehicle bought at auction. The purchase of 2 or more vehicles requires payment for all vehicles, in full, before any vehicle can exit the site.
