About Us
Dealers Choice Auto Auction was founded in 1991 by Monte and Becky Delzell. In 2023, Monte and Becky sold the business to longtime employee, Kevin Bush. Kevin is proud to carry on the Dealers Choice way of doing business.
The management and staff of Dealers Choice Auto Auction invite you to be a part of a new era in our long history. We’ve combined the most state-of-the-art technology in the industry with the personal touch that distinguishes us from the competition. By adapting to constant changes in the industry, we hope to better serve the changing needs of our customers. We’re continually striving to be one of the best independent auto auctions in the nation.
In this website, you’ll find not only a showcase of the technological resources at our disposal, but an insight into the philosophy that has made our auction successful: “service is our only business.” We urge you to examine the information within this site, but don’t stop there. Visit our facilities, meet our staff, and see for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.
