We handle
all of it.
We come to your home, take the things you're ready to part with, sell them for you, and pay you with a statement that shows every sale. You don't lift a box.

Four steps. You're only needed for the first.
Every item we take follows the same path, and each step gets stamped as it's done.

Consult
You, at home
We visit your home, or look at photos if that's easier. We talk through what you have, your timeline, and how we'd sell it. We go over which rates apply to your things before you agree to anything.
-
Pickup
Us, from here on
Our team handles the pickup and transport, from a single piece to a full house. Each item is catalogued as it leaves, so you know exactly what we took.
-
Sold
Us, while you get on with life
We photograph every item and sell it the way that suits each item: consignment, auction, direct sale, or online marketplaces.

What it costs.
When an item sells, we keep a commission and the rest comes to you. That's the only thing we charge. There are no other fees.
The rate depends on what each item sells for. Specialty pieces have one rate at any price.
| If the item sells for | We keep |
|---|---|
| $500 or more | 25% |
| $100 to $499 | 33% |
| Under $100 | 40% |
| Specialty item, any price | 35% |
Commission is our only charge. Nothing for the consultation, pickup, photos or listing.
What counts as specialty
- Luxury and designer goods: designer handbags and clothing, fine watches and jewelry
- Art and antiques: original paintings and sculpture, antique furniture
- Collectibles: rare pieces, vintage fashion, signed costume jewelry, memorabilia
- Distinctive furniture and décor: mid-century pieces, hand-knotted rugs, chandeliers
- Specialty equipment: musical instruments, camera gear, high-end electronics
- Vehicles: cars, motorcycles and RVs
Not sure which an item is? We'll tell you at the consultation, before you agree to anything.
