Rules and Notes
Extended Notes
ACE - Perris and ACE - Perris 2 are AAA-affiliated IAA branches and the page states they follow a slightly different buyer purchase process; the detailed process page is referenced on both ACE location pages. Mobile apps: Buyers use the “IAA Buyer Salvage Auctions” app to search, bid, and pay; transporters (tow partners) use the “IAA Tow” app for dispatch and pickup workflows. IAA’s auction model is fully digital via AuctionNow—no in‑person bidding or branch kiosks. For exact sale day/time at ACE - Perris 2, use the IAA Locations index (Next Auction shows upcoming schedule in CDT); the ACE - Perris 2 branch page itself lists preview and yard/office hours but not a recurring sale time.
Pickup Rules
After payment is confirmed, IAA emails detailed pickup instructions; that email serves as the release form to pick up the vehicle. Transport drivers/towers must wear a highly visible safety vest on IAA property. IAA loaders will not lift items >11,000 lbs; transporters must have proper equipment and are solely responsible for loading. Branch yards close earlier than offices to allow pullout/loading. Vehicles may be eligible for pickup on sale day at many branches. ACE - Perris 2 specific pickup rules beyond hours are not listed on its page.
Policies
Safety gear: Transport drivers and towers must wear a high‑visibility safety vest on IAA property.; Loader limits: IAA loaders do not lift items greater than 11,000 lbs; transporters are responsible for loading and must have proper equipment.; Release email serves as the official release form for pickup; check the email for address, times, and instructions.; In‑branch payment fee: $20 when paying at a branch with cash, money order, cashier’s/company check.
Third Party
Third Party Available
Yes
Third Party Requirements
Transporter must have the buyer’s release email and comply with safety vest/equipment rules. IAA encourages transporters to use the IAA Tow App (for registered IAA transport partners). Transporters can also make MoneyGram payments on buyer’s behalf using invoice details.
Third Party Process
Buyer completes payment; release email is issued and may be forwarded to the transporter. Transporter checks in at the yard during Yard Hours, shows release email, and loads per yard safety rules. Tow partners can use the IAA Tow App for dispatch and updates; independent carriers without IAA Tow App may still pick up using the release email.
Self Pickup
Self Pickup Available
Yes
Self Pickup Requirement
Payment cleared; bring the IAA release email (serves as release form). Transport drivers must wear a safety vest. Follow yard hours for loading; observe loader capacity limits.
Self Pickup Process
After payment posts, watch for IAA’s release email with pickup address/times. Go to the yard during Yard Hours, present release email, and follow onsite instructions. Yard closes before the office to allow loading; bring proper equipment as loading of heavy/oversized items is the transporter’s responsibility.
