CARY, N.C. -

Auto Remarketing’s Best Auctions to Work For, which is sponsored by CARS Recon, is a free workplace study for the auto auction industry that recognizes the best auto auctions to work for on an unranked basis.

It is designed and intended for individual auction locations — not corporate or headquarter offices. It is absolutely free for these individual auctions to participate.

Winners are recognized both in this edition of Auto Remarketing and at the National Remarketing Conference/NAAA Convention during Used Car Week

Auto Remarketing, teaming with the Best Companies Group (BCG) in Pennsylvania, underwrites the study. The study is managed by BCG, and the data is analyzed 100 percent by the staff at BCG.

Best Companies Group directly administers all surveys and manages and analyzes all data and information that is gathered.

The Best Companies Group assesses the data from the group of auctions choosing to participate and develops metrics and standards based on that data to determine which auctions are named to the list of Best Auto Auctions to Work For. Thank you to all who participated this year, and congratulations to those recognized in this year’s study. 

And now, without further, ado, the 2017 Best Auto Auctions to Work For:
