Vehicle auctioneer Manheim will manage the disposal of damaged vehicles written off by Suncorp for another five years.

The Suncorp contract is one of the biggest of its kind nationally, Manheim says.

About 50,000 salvaged vehicles including cars, trucks, machinery and caravans will be handled at Manheim sites located across the country.

“We clearly understand the Australian salvage market and have worked closely with Suncorp to provide new initiatives and processes to see improved results for all the vehicles they provide,” the company says in a statement.

Manheim has been managing the disposal of Suncorp’s written-off vehicles for 22 years.
