Our top priority is to offer our customers the best possible service. However, at this time we do not accept trade-ins.

BidGoDrive does not provide in-house financing, but third party financing options such as LightStream and Carmel may be available. Financing is handled directly through the third party provider and approval is not guaranteed.

We accept several forms of payment including cash, wire transfer, and verifiable cashier's checks. However, please note that when paying with cashier's checks there is typically a 10-day hold as we need to verify the funds and hold the vehicle and title until the check has cleared.

Additionally, credit and debit cards are only accepted for deposits. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to your salesperson for more information.

Unfortunately, we have limitations in place for credit and debit card transactions. If you have any questions regarding these limits, please don't hesitate to reach out to your salesperson for more information. They will be happy to assist you and provide you with all the information you need to make your purchase.

No, we believe in being transparent with our pricing. The agreed upon price is the total amount you will be responsible for. However, it is worth noting that residents of New Jersey are subject to 6.625% sales tax on the total purchase price. This will be clearly stated and included in any sales agreement or invoice.

Once the vehicle is removed from our lot, we are unable to change the name on the title. This is a final and non-negotiable policy.

All rebuildable vehicles on our website are sold AS IS, WHERE IS, with no warranty, expressed or implied by BidGoDrive.com

Note: We also accept cash and cashier's checks at our NJ main office. Cashier's checks are generally held for 10 business days before your vehicle and title are released. For cash payments exceeding $10,000 USD, we will require your social security number and occupation, which will be reported to the IRS. The balance due on any vehicle located outside NY or NJ must be paid via wire transfer only.

If you need assistance transporting your vehicle, we can list the vehicle to ship. This process is done as quickly as possible, but we cannot guarantee timeframes as some aspects of shipping are out of our control.

We use a dispatching website. It is set up exclusively to move vehicles in the US. Once we have your completed invoice, with the address you are having the vehicle shipped to, we will post it to this website. We have shipped vehicles all over the US and know what it will typically cost to get a vehicle moved. We will attempt to keep the costs as low as possible. We DO NOT make any money off the shipping of the vehicles. All the money goes to the driver.

While we can get most vehicles shipped to you in a week or two, we do not guarantee this. Many factors such as location, distance, weather, the type of vehicle, vehicle condition and others may affect how long and how expensive the shipping will be. While we welcome our customers to contact us if they have any questions about shipping, please allow a reasonable amount of time for the vehicle to be delivered. Drivers are limited in the number of hours they may drive per day.

Payment for shipping will be your responsibility upon delivery. We ask that you provide us with 2 contact numbers so that the driver may call you to arrange the final delivery of the vehicle. Please make sure to have someone available to receive the vehicle at the agreed upon time and place.

For international buyers, there will be a few additional steps. BidGoDrive.com will be happy to arrange shipping to any port in the continental US. Since most export companies do not want to be responsible for paying the transportation company, we will need to have the transportation costs paid up front. We will pay the driver when the vehicle is picked up. It will be the buyer's responsibility to make ALL arrangements at the port. You will need to obtain all gate passes and other information necessary for the driver to enter the port and deliver the vehicle. Copies of this information must be faxed or emailed to BidGoDrive.com before the vehicle will be allowed to leave our lot.

Note: We have many great relationships with our own freight forwarder companies, please feel free to email us at info [@] bidgodrive.com for a quote on shipping your vehicle to any destination in the world.
