Wholesale movement turns on title and release authority, not distance. Consignment, floor-plan interests, who may release a vehicle, and what to confirm first.
Move used inventory from auction, trade-in, and wholesale into reconditioning and onto the forecourt. Condition variability, batching, and pipeline sequencing.
Move factory-fresh inventory without acquiring damage. Open vs enclosed decisions, PDI coordination, customer-ordered units, and receiving a new vehicle properly.
Dealer trades move on deadlines, not convenience. One-way and two-way exchanges, what both stores must agree first, and why trades should not be consolidated.
Move inventory between rooftops without losing days. Consolidation rules, condition reporting between dealers, and keeping routine transfers from eating margin.
Transport for resellers and rebuilders buying at volume. Think in lanes not shipments, plan condition across batches, and use a commercial destination properly.
