Online used car retailer Carvana is expanding its delivery service to the State College area.
The Phoenix-based e-commerce company for buying and selling cars announced Thursday it is launching its ‘as-soon-as-next-day touchless home delivery’ in 100 new markets, including State College and seven other locations in Pennsylvania.
Founded in 2012, Carvana allows consumers to shop, finance and purchase from home, then have the vehicle delivered directly to them.
The expansion comes as more consumers are staying home during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We know that many consumers are spending more time at home, and balancing that with the need to keep moving. For many, that includes the need to buy or sell a car, and often their options are limited,” said Ernie Garcia, Carvana founder and CEO. “That’s why we are bringing as-soon-as-next-day touchless home delivery to even more consumers and launching 100 markets.”
In Pennsylvania, the service is now available in Bloomsburg, Chambersburg, East Stroudsburg, Gettysburg, Johnstown, Lebanon and Williamsport, in addition to State College.
Carvana offers the service in 24 states.
