sale preparation

SET-UP. We sort, organize and attractively display your treasures with our own tables, racks, lights, locked cases, etc. We treat your treasures like they are our own. We believe our clients deserve the dignity of a well-presented sale. And while setting-up, we will put anything away that we think would be personal or of sentimental value to you.

PRICING. We price your items at the current liquidation value with a focus on generating sales. After all—since we are entirely commission based—if YOU don’t make money, WE don’t make money! We research any item that we are not familiar with or bring in an expert if needed—we absorb any associated appraisal costs.


PHOTOGRAPHING & ADVERTISING. We photograph as many items as possible to help advertise your sale. Our graphic designer enhances the photos and then uploads them to multiple ad platforms. We also display highly visible yard signage in the vicinity of the sale that directs buyers to your sale (where local regulations allow). And, we obtain all necessary permits where applicable.

the sale

CONDUCT THE SALE. We staff your sale with a uniformed, trusted and experienced crew who maintain organization and encourage sales. Most of them have been with us for years! We also maintain the security of your items as well as your home.   

 

We can provide customers with a moving company resource to transport larger items. 

 

We can collaborate with your realtor to promote the sale of your home during the event! 

 

Bags and wrap are provided for purchases.

 

We accept credit cards, Zelle and Apple Pay for purchases

CHARITY AND / OR CLEAN-OUT.  Some of our competitors offer to buy-out any remaining items in your home—this can be a real conflict of interest!  ShopHound has several charities that we work with to get the remaining unsold items picked up. In addition to that, if the home needs to be cleared out of items to be disposed of, we can help you with that too!
