To make things as STRESS FREE as possible for our customer, our buyers, and ourselves, we have tried to explain the entire process in this way too long explanation(sorry). Please call us anytime if you have questions at 833-sell4me (no texts go through). We are often working, driving, or knee deep in a shed full of stuff, so please call rather than text if you have questions. Can you help us carry items out? Yes, we can help you bring furniture and other bigger items out of the house. If you are looking to go home with the large table saw, or other super heavy shop machines, bring an extra hand or two.How much is item X? We cannot give out prices before the sale. Come to the sale. We can quote prices on large items after 12pm Friday but I would get there in person if you have serious interest in something.Can you send me more photos or give me measurements of a specific item? Unfortunately, NO. We are very busy and cannot drive back up to the house just to measure an item or provide more photos. We get 50-150 questions like this for EACH sale and would be out of business if we went back and got these little details every time. We also can't measure hundreds of items and list thousands of photos per sale as its not efficient and we would need to charge retail prices to make that make sense financially. This is not meant to be rude, its reality. The purpose of the photos is to give people an idea of what is at the sale. Estate sales are quick, 1 or 2 day sales where we offer items at wholesale pricing in order to sell quickly, and with as little prep work as possible. We price all items aggressively and are not like other companies that need to leave good items for the cleanout guys or are unrealistic about actual values, and try to get crazy money for things. It is rare that someone attends our sales and leaves without something they wanted because of the price.Can I buy items before the sale? A lot of people try to buy things before the sale starts and we just can't allow that as it wouldn't be fair. Everything goes on sale at 8am on Friday.What happens with the leftovers after the sale ends? Once the sale is over, it's over. If you are interested in purchasing items in bulk and want to buy the garage contents, or all the clothes that are left, etc...COME TO THE SALE in person at the end of the final day. We have a lot of buyers for a variety of items and there are never any leftovers we "need to get rid of.". Most of the valuable items will sell and there will be some things leftover, but usually not expensive items..Do you donate any items? YES. We have a charity we work with that comes to sales at the end and purchases/receives a variety of items based on their current needs. If you work for, volunteer for, or manage a LEGITIMATE AND Verifiable CHARITY ORGANIZATION, we are happy to donate what we can that's leftover to help your cause. We DO NOT give away items to for profit thrift shops, dealers, etc. If someone locally has had a fire or total loss event, we are happy to set them up as well with clothing furniture, etc. Verifiable cases ONLY please!Where should I park? On the dirt road, on the right hand side as marked, legally and respectfully. Please do not park in front of anyone's driveway or on the wrong side of the street. The driveway and field around house and barn will be for loading items only. I want to buy large heavy items, can you hep load them? We can help get furniture and other items out of the house for you, but you are responsible to load yourself. We cannot help load tractor parts, snowmobiles, or other large items from the barn area. The tractor will be sold and cannot be used to move or load items. How does the pricing work? While there are always exceptions to every rule under the right circumstances, general industry practice at an estate sale is thaton the first day, the prices are non-negotiable. Once the second day comes, the more you buy, the more you save. We price all items well below retail market value to allow for you to have a little "meat on the bone"for retailre-sale or a great deal for a private buyer and much less than you would pay if you walked into an antique store, etc. If you feel we are way off on something, feel free to ask. If I have questions, can I call? Sure, but don't expect us to be able to answer from 8am til almost noon on sale days as we are very busy checking out customers and dealing with customers in person Can Icall or message to get on the list? No, you'll need to show up in person and add yourself to the list Can I bring my dog or other pet? No, please leave your furry friends at home or in your vehicle. We cannot have the liability of a dig bite or be cleaning up after messes. This includes little purse dogs, and whatever other animal you may have.This is an estate sale in a private home, not a tractor supply or other open to the public retail store. --THE LIST--we post a sign up list outside the night before the sale when we finish prep work sometime before midnight. This list determines the order we let people into the sale first thing in the morning when we open up at 8am.. Please do not wait outside the home the daybefore the sale. When we leave we will remove the cones from the driveway and the list will be on a door under a turned on light for safety. We normally can let the first 40 or so people enter, then one at a time until the line goes away. Please do not or start your own list. You do not have to get on the list, but if there is a long line its how we determine the order we let people into the house. Sometimes there are 50 or more people on the list when we open, sometimes there are 200. We don't know when we will finish up or what time the list will go up so best idea would be to get there early in the am, sign up and come back at 730ish to find parking and be ready when we open doors at 8am.--Once you sign the list, please remain near your vehicle and stay off the property as the home will be occupied until a couple hours before the sale. You're welcome to leave and come back, but we can't have people peeking in windows, peeing in the bushes, and doing things that make the neighbors call the police. Stay away from the barn, there is no reason to go near the barn surveillance cameras could trigger and alarm and police response.--There is always only 1 person cashing out customers. We will empty your bags or boxes and will see each item. Please be prepared to wait a few minutes to checkout during the busy times. The bargains are worth the wait!--We cannot allow anyone in early, there are no previews,and no prices can be given out, or any items sold before the sale. This makes it fair for everyone.We offer a bunch of things a lot of other estate companies don't....--we will help you carry items to your car once the initial rush is over. (Not responsible for damage or injury if we help you move items).--We will have a porta potty available for your convenience as the house facilities are off limits. If you have a specific need related to this, reach out PRIOR to the sale to see if you can be accommodated.--Most sales are in private homes and not handicap accessible. If you reach out before we can let you know the layout and if it can accommodate a chair or walker etc. -- We will be able to arrange a later pickup date if you can't take your large item right away. (must be paid in full to hold)--We will sell large or higher value items over the phone after the opening rush, but you should come in person if you can, We cannot be sifting through clothing or chasing $5 items for phone buyers. The idea of this service is for the snowblower or lawnmower, or large table that you need to plan transportation for. --in order to get $25 off your purchase of $50 or more from sharing the sale on Facebook, you need to like AND follow Stress Free Estate Services' page and have at least 100 friends.
