New Milford and Litchfield County.

Our base is in New Milford, serving nearby owners in Sherman, Kent, Washington, New Preston, Roxbury, Bridgewater, and Litchfield, as well as the wider county. You can begin remotely: send recent photographs, the vehicle’s location, and an overview of its history before scheduling an appointment.

Once we review the car and agree on the approach, we discuss delivery to our New Milford facility, preparation, and the auction submission. Contact us before arranging transport; an initial conversation does not require you to move the car.

Collector car consignment for Fairfield County.

Owners in Brookfield, Danbury, New Fairfield, Bethel, Newtown, Ridgefield, Wilton, Westport, Fairfield, Darien, New Canaan, Stamford, and Greenwich can work with the same New Milford team. We discuss vehicle delivery and any transport coordination individually, alongside preparation and sale terms.

Our facility is in New Milford. Visits are by appointment, and buyer showings are coordinated privately. Start with your car’s details and your town so we can discuss a practical plan.

Bring a Trailer, Cars & Bids, or PCarMarket?

Bring a Trailer is the first choice for many of our sellers. We also manage auctions on Cars & Bids and PCarMarket. The recommendation depends on your vehicle, its likely audience, your timing, and whether a private sale may be a better fit. Platform acceptance is decided by each auction platform.

A fit is about more than price.

We work with owners of attainable enthusiast cars as well as significant collector vehicles. Condition, history, originality, modifications, and market appeal help determine whether a car is suitable and how to represent it.

An inquiry does not need a finished auction description. Start with the year, make, model, mileage, vehicle location, and an honest summary of its condition. A few recent photos and a note about the records available are useful.

What happens at our facility.

Approved vehicles are stored at our private, unmarked facility in New Milford during preparation and auction. Visits are by appointment. We coordinate access for photography, preparation, and private buyer showings while maintaining client privacy.

The standard managed process includes document digitization, interior and exterior detailing, professional photography, listing preparation, and active auction management. Mechanical work and other optional services are discussed separately when applicable.

Choose the right way to sell.

An auction can bring interested buyers together around a public listing and a scheduled close. A private sale allows a different pace and a more selective presentation. Neither format is automatically right for every car or owner.

We discuss the vehicle’s likely audience, comparable sales, your timing, and your preference for privacy. Platform acceptance and sale results remain subject to the individual car and the market.

Understand the agreement.

Auction commissions are agreed before consignment. Qualifying consignments have no upfront auction listing or standard photography fees. Standalone media, mechanical work, transport, and other optional services are quoted separately when applicable.

If the vehicle does not sell through our efforts, a $599 fee is due. It is returned fully detailed, and a folder of professional images is emailed to you. Discuss these terms before arranging delivery.

You can start from outside Connecticut.

If the vehicle is elsewhere, contact us before booking transportation. We can review whether it is a fit and discuss practical delivery arrangements. We can also help coordinate collection or transport after a sale.

Our facility is in New Milford; we do not operate a public walk-in showroom. Call or text (203) 885-4979 or use the inquiry form to arrange a conversation and, where appropriate, an appointment.

Keep the first step simple.

Tell us about the car and what matters to you: timing, privacy, the work involved, or choosing between auction and private sale. We will review the details and discuss a suitable approach.

You do not need to decide on a platform or complete extensive preparation before getting in touch. Reviewing the car first gives us a chance to discuss what is useful and which work may be unnecessary.
