Estate Sales

The first step in the estate sales process is that we must visit the home where the sale would take place. This meeting is FREE of charge and there is NO obligation to use our company. We simply need a starting point to get a clear picture of what we are to sell.

Once we meet and review your situation, we can use our endless resources to facilitate getting rid of every item and getting you the best price possible. It’s no secret that every sale is unique, and so must be the process to generate sale ideas. We and would love an opportunity to work with you!

There is a basic formula once the plan is set. Once we set a sale date, we begin the process of organizing and sorting. Depending on the contents and state of the home, this dictates how we proceed. We love digging for treasures and believe it or not, it’s not usually what you expect them to be! One thing that we have found, doing this for over 14 years, is that it’s never truer than in an estate sale that “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure”.

We ask that you please do not pre-clean the home of trash and things that you feel are not sellable. If it’s not sellable, we will find a great charity that would love to use it or we will recycle it.

Next we will price, clean, and set up the sale. If we need an appraiser’s help we have many qualified experts on our team to get the best price for your valuables.

We even inform your neighbors before the sale to work out logistics regarding parking or other issues to minimize the impact on your neighborhood and let them know there will be some increased traffic that day.

After everything is set and the sale is upon us, we hold the sale, re-merchandise it daily and, at the end of the sale, we clean up, call in the charities and tear down our tables and shelves. Once the sale is over and we have cleared out, we begin the accounting process to reconcile with you.

You will receive an accounting recap as well as expense sheets and copies of our receipts within 14 days.
