Why Use Reserve Lane for Auctions
Keep More of Your Sale
Flat-fee pricing. No 10% commission.
Most brokers and consignment dealers take 8–10% of your final sale. We charge a simple flat rate—so you know exactly what you’re paying, no matter the sale price.
Maintain Full Control
You keep the car—and the decision-making.
We never take possession of your vehicle. You approve the photos, the reserve, and the final sale terms. We handle the work; you keep the leverage.
