ATLANTA -

Manheim will be opening its third location in Ohio early next month, the auction company said Tuesday morning. Manheim Cleveland will hold its first sale on March 2 at 9:30 a.m. It is located at 4720 Brookpark Road in Cleveland.

The auction previously at this location was a former independent known as Brookpark Auction that operated for about a year-and-a-half, said a company spokesperson. Manheim rents the facilities. It began converting the facilities in December, and its lease started Feb. 1, the spokesperson said. 

Manheim’s other two Buckeye State locations are Manheim Cincinnati and Manheim Ohio, which is located in Grove City.

Manheim said its new 2,000-square-foot Cleveland auction will primarily focus on independent dealers and small franchised dealers. 

It will include three sales lanes, offer physical, Simulcast and online sales, and provide limited mechanical and reconditioning facilities that include Post Sale Inspection capability.

Sale day will be 9:30 a.m. on Wednesdays.

“We are opening in response to requests from local dealers for an auction that serves the Cleveland market,” said Alan Lang, vice president of Manheim Local & Mobile “This demand coincides with our market intelligence that revealed the Cleveland market is under-served, presenting exciting opportunities for Manheim and dealer clients.”
