SHINNSTON, W.Va. –

Mountain State Auto Auction recently revealed to Auto Remarketing the addition of a sixth lane to the facility, as well as a two-story office complex.

Explaining the lane addition, officials said they were spurred by the 20-percent hike in new-car trade business.

“Many dealers are finding our personalized service and individual account management results in a much more positive auction experience,” stated sales manager Andrew Pyle.

As for the office complex, it will be for fleet-lease, AFC and accounting.

“Dealers are very excited about all the facilities improvements and have been committed to fill the lanes” said Jamie Ripoli, director of marketing. “We’re planning a major grand opening celebration in mid- to late-March.”
