SALVAGE BUYER IDENTIFICATON CARD
License Description If you are a licensed dealer, wholesaler or salvage dealer or their employee, you may apply for the Salvage Buyer Identification (BID) Card. The BID card allows you to bid on vehicles at motor vehicle salvage pools (auctions that sell wrecked vehicles only). You may have more than one BID card, in order to buy salvage vehicles for more than one employer. However, you must submit a separate BID card application signed by each employer. Employees of dealers, wholesalers, and salvage dealers that are licensed out-of-state may also qualify for a Wisconsin BID card. To qualify for a BID card, you must be at least 18 years old. You cannot have been convicted of a crime directly related to the sale of motor vehicles. BID card users can only buy vehicles on behalf of their employer. They cannot use the BID card to buy vehicles for their own or other's use. BID cards expire on the same date as the employer's dealer, wholesaler or salvage dealer license. BID cards for out-of-state buyers expire on December 31.
