The State Line Difference
THE STATE LINE DIFFERENCE
What Sets Us Apart
What sets State Line Auto Auction apart from the competition? It starts with our commitment to family and personal service. As an independent, family-owned and operated auction, our owners are actively involved in day-to-day operations, ensuring that every customer receives the personalized attention they deserve. Our people truly make the difference, delivering the kind of service that keeps dealers coming back.
We are the largest auto auction in New York outside the NYC metro area, offering a top-tier experience with unmatched hospitality. Every Friday, we give back to our dealers with a $2,000 end-of-sale drawing (four winners take home $500 each!), free breakfast, and homemade, hearty lunches served in our cafeteria starting at 11 AM.
At State Line, we believe in a personal touch—a live receptionist answers every call during business hours, and arbitrations are handled on-site for quick resolutions. We also offer 24/7/365 security and transporter access, ensuring convenience and safety for our customers. And with a dedicated response team for snow removal and de-icing, we never cancel a sale due to weather.
At State Line Auto Auction, we combine big-time resources with small-town service, making every sale an experience—not just a transaction.
