General estate sale policies & procedures

Early Numbers

Early numbers and admittance are issued 30 minutes prior to opening daily. ​Everyone needs a number if they wish to enter the house. This includes couples and kids. We limit the amount of people in the house to avoid congestion. This is especially true with the 1st and last day of the sale. Your patience is always appreciated.

​Those people who have a number will enter the sale first. Please be patient while we work to get everyone inside safely. All children must be accompanied by an adult.


Forms of Payment

Cash or check, all major credit cards are accepted. Certified funds may be requested on large sale purchases. Credit card sales must exceed $30. Checks with proper ID are welcome. Return check fee $30.


Parking

Parking is available on the street unless otherwise posted. Driveways are also used for pickups only.   Please be mindful of driveways and sprinkler systems in yards. Remember we are all guests.  Safety is our first priority.

Wholesale Buying

The Monday's after every sale, we will be open from 10-12 for wholesale buying.  Please keep in mind, offers must be reasonable and all items are to be removed that day.  Cash and carry. No appointment necessary, just show up at the sale location between those hours with an empty truck and some muscle power.  See you at the sale!


Sold Items

If you wish to purchase an item, your name must be on the SOLD sticker and a staff member will record your purchases on your sales slip.  Only items with your name on the SOLD sticker shall be placed in the designated holding area for pickup.  Please keep in mind — this is a courtesy shelf — you place your items here at your own risk.  We do not staff this area.  If you decide not to purchase a particular item that is being "held" please notifiy a staff member so the item can be placed back on the floor for purchase.   

If you are not taking your items after you have checked out and will be picking them up later, you need to notify a staff member. 


Pick Ups

All items must be removed from the sale location no later than the last day of the sale at closing.  If items can not be moved prior to the conclusion of the sale, arrangements must be made with Beck Estates.

Sometimes, moving help will be available with large heavy items on the last day only.  These movers will assist you in moving items from the house to your vehicle. They welcome tips.  Deliveries are available and fees may vary depending on destination and on the item purchased.  Please inquire about this service with a staff member.  All deliveries are made by a private individual, not employed by Beck Estates.
