Copart UK has opened a new Operation Centre in Chelmsford, Essex.

The new 30-acre site, which is part of an ongoing expansion strategy with further announcements to come, will provide additional capacity alongside its existing Operation Centres in Colchester, Rochford, Sandwich, Sandy, and Wisbech.

It will enable Copart to increase vehicle storage capacity in this region by 25%, reducing road miles and increasing online auctions.

Jane Pocock, CEO of Copart UK and Ireland, said, “We’re very excited to announce our plans to develop a new Operation Centre in Chelmsford, which will provide annual storage capacity for 35,000 vehicles.

“The Essex area is growing rapidly with increasing levels of housing development, so Copart Chelmsford will be a key location for us to handle future demand and further strengthen our unrivalled operational capabilities in the southwest.”
