Carvana Announces Auction-IRC ‘Megasite’ Integration in Phoenix Area
Carvana (NYSE: CVNA) has announced plans to integrate an auction and reconditioning 'Megasite' in Phoenix, combining its Inspection and Reconditioning Center (IRC) capabilities with its existing ADESA Phoenix wholesale auction location. The facility, located in Chandler, AZ, spans nearly 100 acres with over 5,000 parking spaces.
The integration will create approximately 200 new jobs and maintain both digital and in-lane auction operations. The ADESA Phoenix site, which has served local wholesale auto auction customers for over 20 years, will implement Carvana's proprietary CARLI software to support efficiency across its IRC network.
This expansion will increase Carvana's total reconditioning capacity, improve vehicle selection, and establish an expanded inventory pool in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The integration aims to enable faster local delivery options, potentially offering same or next-day delivery for local buyers, while maintaining full auction functionality for wholesale customers.

Insights
Carvana's integration of IRC capabilities into the existing ADESA Phoenix auction site represents a significant operational enhancement that strengthens the company's vertical integration strategy. The creation of this auction-IRC 'Megasite' leverages 100 acres of existing infrastructure to simultaneously improve both retail and wholesale operations.
The capacity expansion delivers three critical advantages: increased reconditioning capacity (directly expanding sellable inventory), greater operational efficiency through geographical optimization, and faster delivery capabilities (same/next-day) for Phoenix-area customers. This dual-purpose facility exemplifies Carvana's focus on infrastructure utilization - maintaining auction functionality while adding reconditioning capabilities maximizes return on existing assets.
The projected 200 new jobs indicate the substantial scale of this expansion. More importantly, the implementation of Carvana's proprietary CARLI software across the facility demonstrates the company's commitment to operational consistency and scalability across its network.
This integration represents meaningful progress in Carvana's post-ADESA acquisition strategy, showing how the company can extract additional value from acquired assets through operational transformation. The expansion creates operational leverage that should improve unit economics while enhancing customer experience through faster delivery and expanded selection - a competitive advantage in the digital used car marketplace.

"Carvana’s expanding operations at ADESA Phoenix are another example of the bold innovation and growth we are proud to foster here in
Adding IRC capabilities to ADESA Phoenix increases Carvana’s total reconditioning capacity, which improves selection for all customers. It also establishes an expanded inventory pool in a new metropolitan area, making Carvana’s reconditioning and fulfillment network more efficient and giving local buyers access to vehicles that can be delivered as soon as the same or the next day. Wholesale customers will continue to enjoy full in-lane and online auction functionality and will now benefit from even more robust reconditioning operations on site.

ADESA Phoenix’s efficient transition to an auction-IRC Megasite will be enabled by the site’s significant existing footprint and infrastructure as well as by its adoption of Carvana’s proprietary CARLI software, which supports efficiency, scalability, and consistency across its IRC network.
