“Our new Dallas location is a showcase for how to combine the best customer service and support with environmental considerations,” said Jamie Porter, president, Total Resource Auctions. “This location was built with the goal of helping our wholesale salvage customers conduct business efficiently, but also to demonstrate how auction facilities can use resources more efficiently.” |

Built on 71 acres and featuring 26,000 total square feet, the new location incorporates 12,000 square feet of office space, two Simulcast sale lanes and a wash bay that can hold up to 30 cars. To decrease the facility’s environmental footprint, recycled concrete was used on half of the 46 acres of developed surface. In addition, the facility will use an advanced geothermal heating and cooling system and reuse 90 percent of the water from its wash bays. With the addition of this facility, Total Resource Auctions now offers two locations to serve the greater Dallas area. |
