Walker's Auto Auctions
Every Tuesday night of the month at 6:30pm, at the Walker's Auction Barn,
Walker's conducts an automobile auction. Cars, trucks, buses, farm machines, motorcycles,
and other vehicles are offered. The auto auction is open to the general public for both
buying and selling autos and other motorized vehicles. Each week approximately 50 to 80
vehicles are put up on the block and about 85% of them sell. Owners have the right to
reject bids not meeting their minimum amount.
Regarding inspection of vehicles Walker's has two programs. For any vehicle selling for
$1,500 or less, the auto is sold strictly in "As Is" condition. Test drives for
vehicles under the $1,500 selling price are not granted, only a walk-around inspection is
allowed.
For vehicles selling at $1,505 or more, a test ride and drive with Walker's mechanic is
granted immediately after a winning bid. The winning bidder can ride and drive the vehicle
with our mechanic riding along. If the vehicle has any minor problems that would cost
$200 or less to repair, these problems will not be considered or addressed with the
ride & drive. There must be a major problem of at least $200 or more before a buyer
can turn down any vehicle. The problem must also be acknowledged and approved by our
driver mechanic.Walker Auction works as an agent only and will not be responsible for
fixing, repairing, or guaranteeing any vehicle sold at the auto auction!
When selling autos at the Walker's Auto Auction you have the right to reject bids not
meeting your minimum. The best way to sell is to get your vehicle down to Walker's Auction
Barn on Monday. If you wish you may request an early selling position, which are granted
on a first-come-first-served basis.
Buyers are required to get a bid number card from the Walker's cashier and to present
their driver's license at the time the card is requested. Terms of sale are final and
payment in full is required the night of the auction. You will need to make arrangements
to have your purchase driven or otherwise removed from the Walker's Auction Barn lot the
night of the sale or the next day.
Walker's Horse Auctions
The Walker Family has been trading horses for many years. We all
appreciate the value of good livestock. Our horse auctions are held on the first and third
Saturday of every month. They are held at the Walker's Auction Barn and start at 6:30pm
with the sale of new and used tack.
Horses, donkeys, mules, chickens, goats, in fact almost all farm animals except cattle
can be offered for sale. Horses must have a Coggins test. If no Coggins test has been
competed the horse will be quarantined when sold and the Coggins will be given on Monday.
Results of the test will be available on Thursday and if okay the animal will be available
for pick up then. We will feed and care for horses being tested, and for animals waiting
for pick up, but only for a limited time.
Farms & Farming Equipment
Walker's provides farm real estate and farm equipment auction services. A
farm auction can be either conducted on your property or we can haul implements to either
our Friday night consignment sale auction or auto auction. If you have a tractor or
implement you wish to auction we suggest consigning it at our auto auction. If you have
numerous implements and other equipment you may be better off having an auction at your
property. We can also conduct a full sale to include all equipment and the farm real
estate. Please give us a call and we'll help you decide what is the best way to handle
your needs. |
