Rules and Notes
Extended Notes
The Avenel branch page is authoritative for its weekly schedule (currently Every Monday at 9:30 a.m. ET as shown on the location page viewed on September 17, 2025). Some IAA list pages can display differing historical dates; rely on the Avenel location page for current branch-specific details. IAA’s platform indicates auctions are digital-only via AuctionNow. While IAA literature references Gate Passes issued after payment (and available in Purchase History/email), the Avenel page itself does not explicitly describe a gate pass or PIN workflow; no virtual queue or appointment requirement is stated. Safety vests are required for transport drivers/towers on IAA property; loaders won’t handle >11,000 lbs.
Pickup Rules
