• Description: Our Auctions are held regularly and include consignments of all sizes, from single items to complete house contents. We are able to arrange the total clearance of houses, including the sale of household goods and disposal of rubbish. Please consult us early when you have a house to clear, as in some instances valuable lots have been dumped or destroyed and these days the most unlikely items can be of value. We make all arrangements for transport, catalogue printing and advertising to obtain the best results for our clients.
