Copart's "North Charleston" yard is actually in Harleyville, and America's Auto Auction's "Charleston" site is in Moncks Corner, which puts both close to the coast's export warehouses. A unit bought at either is a short final leg.

Straight answers
Do you deliver to the Port of Charleston?
No. We deliver to exporters' loading warehouses and consolidation yards in the Charleston area, never into a port terminal. The leg from your warehouse to the terminal is your forwarder's.
How long does it take to get a unit from the Upstate to Charleston?
About three hours of driving for roughly 200 miles on I-26. A unit picked up in the Upstate in the morning can be at a Charleston-area warehouse the same day if the warehouse is receiving.
Can you combine Upstate and coastal auction pickups?
Yes. A truck heading down I-26 can collect at Copart Spartanburg, IAA Simpsonville and the Columbia-area yards, then finish at Harleyville or Moncks Corner. Send every lot and your cutoff date.
