Copart commits to new Andover Operation Centre
Online vehicle remarketing and recycling specialist Copart UK is boosting vehicle storage capacity with the launch of a new Andover Operation Centre.
The new 27-acre site near Andover continues the company’s ongoing growth programme which has seen it open Operation Centres in St Helens (Merseyside) and Chelmsford (Essex), and undertake major expansion works at its Sandtoft Super Centre in the North of England.
The company has also recently opened the doors to three other brand-new Copart Operation Centres in Corby (Northamptonshire), Gloucester, and East Kilbride in Scotland.
The growth strategy is intended to ensure Copart can provide close proximity to communities and customers and be there when needed to collect, handle, and store vehicles quickly, efficiently, and with minimal environmental impact.

Jane Pocock, CEO of Copart UK and Ireland, said: “This investment will significantly increase our operational capabilities and vehicle storage for customers and buyers in the Southwest, whilst driving down road miles and carbon emissions.
“With the UK car parc growing and diversifying rapidly, and increasing levels of housing development nationwide, Copart Andover will provide yet another key location for us to handle those future volumes.
“It’s a hugely exciting time for Copart and our customers as we keep moving forward with our ‘Land and Expand’ strategy to support the ever-increasing demand for EV handling and emergency response services following extreme weather events.”
