Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why should I have an estate sale?
A. There are many reasons to have a sale including liquidating the property after the death of a family member or moving out of town or into a smaller home. This is the easiest and most effecient way to get rid of unwanted items.
Q. What does it mean when it says "numbers @ 8 am"?
A. Usually there are two types of "numbers" handed out at estate sales. "Temporary numbers" are handed out by the first customer to arrive at the sale. They will usually sit in their car and have a sign saying that they are handing out numbers. These numbers allow the first customers to receive a number once we hand out our numbers at 8 am and to be the first people into the sale. This helps maintain an orderly admission process.
Q. How do I find directions to the sales?
A. We will generally have directions on the "Current Sales" page of this website. We also suggest using www.mapquest.com.
Q. I have valuable items. Should I call a dealer to buy these items before having a sale?
A. No. We will be able to sell those items for you. Many collectors and dealers attend our sales and by keeping these items for the sale, it will attract larger crowds which in turn will produce more sales of other items.
Q. There is a lot of "junk" in the house. Should I throw things away?
A. Don't throw anything away before we come and evaluate your belongings. Very often, things that seem like junk to one person may be a treasure to someone else.
Q. What happens to everything left after the sale is over?
A. We will work with you to donate usable items to a charitable organization. We also work with companies that will clear away what is left, leaving your home cleaned out and ready for sale or occupancy by the next person.
Q How do I know that I can trust you?
A. We can supply you with references of families that we have done sales for. They will confirm that we will do the best job for you.
