Capital City Auto Auction

Joe and Charlotte Pyle opened Capital City Auto Auction in 1996 with a focus on friendship, honesty and fair treatment. The company sits on 85 acres just outside Charleston city limits and runs eight lanes of wholesale vehicle sales, including a weekly inoperable, salvage and damaged vehicle sale.

The auction is mainly for dealers, though it also holds a public repo auction. Sellers can have their consignments represented by the sales staff if they cannot attend, and the company operates its own fleet of haulers for transportation. Sellers can take home a guaranteed check the same day, and buyers who cannot attend in person can bid online in all eight lanes.
