Why truckoo

1

On site, not from a distance

Our partners are based where your vehicle stands: recovery operators with heavy-duty equipment, their own truck workshop and a guarded yard. No 400 km journey, no waiting for a low-loader.

2

One contract, one point of contact

You instruct truckoo, and we manage the partner, the storage, the appraisal and the remarketing. You receive one status per vehicle and one statement.

3

Proceeds instead of a disposal loss

The vehicle does not go to the nearest available trade buyer, but into a blind auction with 1,500+ vetted dealers. You see every bid and decide yourself.

Repossession is a craft: an articulated truck without keys and papers is not driven away, it is recovered. That is why we work with operations that do this every day – recovery services with heavy-duty equipment for up to 40 tonnes, their own truck workshop and a guarded storage yard. Many have been working for the police, insurers and leasing companies for years.

What every partner brings
  • Recovery vehicles for trucks, articulated trucks and buses up to 40 t
  • Guarded or camera-monitored yard, indoor spaces for semi-trailers
  • In-house workshop for roadworthiness and reconditioning before remarketing
  • Documentation to the truckoo standard: photos, condition, mileage, accessories
  • Experience with commercial repossession on behalf of third parties

Remarketing: dealer-independent, combinable with your own channels

The repossessed vehicle does not go to the company that repossessed it. It goes to the highest bidder.

Via truckoo

Every vehicle enters a blind auction with sealed bids over a fixed period – 1,500+ vetted dealers and exporters from 35+ countries. This also applies to vehicles with special bodywork. You see all bids and release or reject them. truckoo handles the contract, the payment, the deregistration and the handover.

Your channels

Existing buyers, framework agreements, manufacturer buy-back obligations or your own auction platforms stay connected. You decide per vehicle whether it first runs through your channels and then comes to truckoo – or the other way round: the blind auction first, then to your partners at a buy-now price.

The company carrying out the repossession has no interest in the proceeds. A trade buyer has an interest in a low price. truckoo earns on the transaction, not on the margin – the best proceeds are also our best result.

Who it is for

Audience
Typical case
What you receive
Leasing companies
Payment arrears, termination, vehicle with the lessee or whereabouts unknown
Location tracing, repossession, storage, remarketing to dealers instead of taking the vehicle back into your own stock
Banks and finance providers
Transfer of title by way of security (Sicherungsübereignung), insolvency of the borrower
Coordination with the insolvency administrator, court-proof documentation, proceeds in a single statement
Manufacturer banks and captives
Returns from non-performing contracts outside the dealer network
A complement to your own remarketing for vehicles that do not fit the brand programme

Contracts that end as planned run through your existing processes. We take on the 5 % that cause the work.

Frequently asked questions

We already have a repossession service provider. Why switch?

You do not have to switch. Many clients use truckoo for regions where their current provider faces long journeys, or for the remarketing after the repossession. Both can be instructed separately.

Who is liable during storage?

The partner on site, insured through its commercial general liability cover (Betriebshaftpflicht) and its liability as custodian of the vehicle (Verwahrerhaftung). truckoo checks the proof of insurance before a partner is admitted to the network.

How quickly is someone on site?

The nearest partner is within a 100 km radius. Where the location is known and the power of attorney is in place, usually within 48 hours; longer if the location first has to be traced.

What does the repossession cost?

A flat fee per repossession by vehicle class plus a daily rate for the storage. Remarketing through truckoo is free of charge for you as the seller; the buyer pays the fee.

Can we remarket the vehicle ourselves?

Yes. You can instruct the repossession alone and have the vehicle transferred to your own site or to your buyer.

What happens with vehicles abroad?

Repatriation from elsewhere in the EU through partners with an international recovery service. Repossession outside the EU after a case-by-case review.
