Complete Estate Auctions
When a lifetime of personal property needs to be sold — vehicles, collections, tools, firearms, furniture, and everything in between — we handle the entire process from start to finish. One auction company. One timeline. Everything sold.
Built for Complete Estate Liquidations
Looking to sell a single item or a small collection? Our Consignments page is the better option.
Personal Representatives / Executors
Settling an estate is complex enough without trying to figure out how to sell the personal property. We handle the full liquidation — cataloging, marketing, and selling — so you can focus on the legal and family side of things.
Trustees
Managing trust assets comes with fiduciary responsibility. Our documented process, transparent reporting, and competitive auction format ensure trust property is sold at fair market value with a clear paper trail.
Downsizing Families
When a parent or loved one is moving to assisted living, a smaller home, or in with family, decades of belongings need to go somewhere. We turn a full estate into an organized auction and put money back in the family's hands.
Collectors Liquidating Full Collections
Firearms, coins, antiques, vehicles, sporting goods — when it's time to sell a lifetime collection, you need an auction team that understands what you have and knows how to reach the right buyers. We do both.
Your Items In Front of the Right Buyers
Effective marketing is what separates a good auction from a great one. Our team holds the Auction Marketing Management (AMM) designation and delivers targeted, multi-channel campaigns — segmented by category so the right buyers see your items.
Digital & Social Marketing
Every auction gets a targeted campaign across Facebook, Instagram, and email — built around the categories in your estate to reach collectors, dealers, and everyday buyers.
Professional Photography
Our 8-dimension photo process captures every item with the detail buyers need to bid with confidence. Better photos mean better results.

Estate Auction Questions, Answered Honestly
If you're dealing with an estate and not sure where to start, you're not alone. Here are the questions families and executors ask us most.
What do I do with a house full of belongings after a death?
Start with one phone call. We'll walk through the property with you — in person or by photos — assess what's there, and build a plan. You don't need to have it figured out before you call us. That's our job. A complete estate auction handles everything from furniture and collectibles to vehicles, tools, and firearms, all in a single coordinated event. One process, one timeline, one company.
Do I need to sort, clean, or remove anything before calling an auctioneer?
No. Leave everything where it is. In fact, sorting through an estate before calling us can accidentally remove value — items that look like junk sometimes aren't. We catalog, photograph, and market every lot. The only thing we ask is that clearly personal documents, medications, and anything with sentimental value to the family be removed before auction day.
How long does it take to settle an estate and sell the contents?
For personal property — furniture, vehicles, collectibles, tools, and household contents — plan on 30 to 60 days from contract signing to auction close, depending on the size of the estate. Real estate follows on a separate timeline. We work with your attorney and title company to coordinate everything so the estate can be settled and closed as efficiently as possible.
What happens if some items don't sell?
Unsold items remain the responsibility of the seller — but we don't just walk away. We can help coordinate donation to local organizations for items with value, and for items that aren't worth donating, we're equipped with dump trailers and can arrange haul-off. There is a cost for that service, and we're upfront about it before we start. No surprises.
We have a house, land, vehicles, and furniture to sell — where do we even start?
With a conversation. When an estate includes both real property and personal property, we typically recommend selling the personal property first — it clears the house and allows the real estate to be properly prepared and presented for auction. In some situations, running both together in a coordinated event makes more sense. We'll assess your specific situation and recommend the approach that serves the estate best. National Auction USA handles both sides, so nothing falls through the cracks.
