Why Dealerships Choose NexGen for In-House Logistics

Consistent Process for Recurring Needs

If your dealership regularly moves trade-ins, dealer trades, or inventory between locations, we set up a standing process so each shipment doesn't require starting from scratch.

Multi-Rooftop Coordination

Dealer groups with multiple locations need inventory balanced across rooftops based on what's selling where. We coordinate these inter-store transfers efficiently, whether it's a single vehicle or a regular pattern.

Trade-In to Auction Logistics

Trade-ins that aren't a fit for your lot need to get to auction. We handle that leg of the process so your team isn't burning labor hours on a vehicle that's already off the books.

Account-Based Pricing

Internal logistics happen at volume, and we price accordingly, rather than charging dealer- internal moves at the same rate as a one-off retail shipment.

A Team That Understands Dealer Operations

We're not learning your business from scratch every time you call. A dedicated contact understands your typical routes, your group structure, and how your team likes things handled.

In-House Dealer Transport Services

Trade-In to Auction Transport

Trade-ins headed to Manheim, IAAI, Copart, or any other auction are picked up directly from your lot and delivered to the auction site.

Inter-Dealer and Inter-Rooftop Transfers

Moving inventory between locations within a dealer group, or trading vehicles with another dealership, is handled as a standard recurring service.

Lot-to-Lot Inventory Balancing

If certain models move faster at one location than another, we help redistribute inventory across your dealer group's footprint.

Service Loaner and Demo Vehicle Repositioning

Loaner fleets and demo vehicles sometimes need to move between locations as availability shifts. We handle this just like any other internal transfer.

Wholesale and Off-Lot Sale Transport

Vehicles sold wholesale to another dealer or business need reliable delivery, and we coordinate that leg of the transaction directly.

How Cargo Van Transport Works

Shops building custom vehicles for clients across the country, where the final delivery needs to be as carefully handled as the build itself.

Call (832) 886-1321 to discuss your dealership's or group's typical internal transport needs.

We set up recurring routes for predictable needs and handle one-off requests as they come up.

Every vehicle gets a Bill of Lading at pickup, regardless of whether it's a customer-facing or internal move.

Whether that's another rooftop, an auction lot, or a wholesale buyer, the vehicle arrives on the timeline you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you handle trade-ins headed to multiple different auctions?

Yes. We work with all major auction platforms, including Manheim, IAAI, and Copart, and can route trade-ins to whichever auction fits your process.

Do you offer volume pricing for dealer groups?

Yes. Internal logistics happen at scale, and we price dealer accounts based on actual volume rather than one-off retail rates.

Can you set up recurring routes between our rooftops?

Yes. If your group regularly moves inventory between specific locations, we can set up a standing arrangement that simplifies scheduling.

How do you bill for internal dealer transport?

We can set up per-shipment billing or a monthly invoice arrangement based on what works best for your accounting process.

Can you handle a single trade-in, or only larger volume?

We handle single-vehicle moves just as readily as larger, recurring fleet logistics.

What documentation do you provide for each shipment?

Every vehicle receives a Bill of Lading at pickup and delivery, documenting condition, which is useful for both wholesale transactions and internal record-keeping.

Can you coordinate directly with our auction consignment deadlines?

Yes. Let us know your auction's specific deadline and we'll plan pickup and delivery timing to make sure the vehicle arrives in time.

Do you handle loaner and demo vehicle repositioning?

Yes. We treat loaner and demo fleet repositioning the same as any other internal transfer.

Is the vehicle insured during transport?

Yes. All carriers carry cargo insurance as required by the FMCSA.

Is NexGen licensed and insured?

Yes. We are FMCSA licensed (MC# 1482694, USDOT# 3969190), bonded, insured, and BBB Accredited with an A+ rating.
