About 422 Online School Bus Auction

422 is a family owned and operated auction company that has been conducting public auto auctions and used school bus auctions in the Pittsburgh, PA area for over 35 years. With our long track record of selling school buses at auction, 422 has become the world's foremost School Bus Auction firm.

In the past, 422 had sold school buses in large quantities at live auctions all over the USA, coast to coast.

In recent years, 422 has developed an online auction platform that has allowed our team to transition most of our live school bus auctions to online school bus auctions. Our online school bus auction program now gives us the ability to sell school buses across the USA in large groups or small! School buses aren’t all that we offer for auction! We sell commercial trucks, light duty trucks, cars, vans and SUVS as well.

At 422, the customer comes first and that has become our motto in the online auction department. We pride ourselves in customer service and work towards making the online auction process a seamless transition between the buyers and sellers.

Take part in one of our auctions and see why our family touch is what makes the buying and selling experience so much better!
