Based on CDC guidance, and to limit any potential risks to our clients and team members, some of our Manheim locations require face masks be worn while indoors, regardless of vaccination status which includes the lobby, offices, and other indoor areas but masks do not have to be worn when outdoors or in the arena.  Other locations do not require masks for individuals as long as they are fully vaccinated; however, those not fully vaccinated are required to wear masks while indoors. Please check with each location prior to visiting to be sure proper safety guidelines are being followed.

All locations require visitors to complete either a COVID-19 Related Access Form (CRAF) or a Visitor Form prior to arriving to a location. It is important that you check with each location to determine which form is needed. When filling out either form, please take note of the following:

• An email or text confirmation of completion will be sent by 8pm the day prior (if completing in advance of your visit)
• Confirmations are required upon check in at the auction 
• “Location Address” is the auction you are visiting 
• “Reason for Visit” is Client (Sale, Preview)

We have Plexiglass guards placed in between the seller, block clerk, and auctioneer. All parties on the block should be physically separated when possible. Please note that block clerks will be remote when possible. The seller area of the block will be thoroughly sanitized pre and post-use. Additionally, gavels, computers, and microphones should not be shared and will be cleansed after each use.

Yes, capacity will be limited inside the auction arena to allow for social spacing and to meet local and state gathering requirements. Auction lots will not have capacity limits, other than local and state restrictions, and clients will be able to move freely between the auction arena and lot, provided the arena maintains capacity limits.

Social distancing of six feet or more is required in the auction lanes including keeping at least six feet away from the auctioneer booth. Floor markings will be placed appropriately.
