How it works
Three steps, and most of the work is ours
Sorting through an estate is hard enough. Finding the right company to run the sale shouldn't add to it.
-
01
Tell us about the estate
A short form — where the property is, roughly what's in it, and when you need the sale done. Photos help, but they're optional.
-
02
Local companies reach out
We pass your request to estate sale professionals who work in your area. They contact you directly, usually within a day or two.
-
03
Choose in your own time
Compare what each one charges, how they run a sale, and how they handle the items that matter to you. Hire whoever fits — or nobody.
What to expect
What a good estate sale company actually does
Most families have never hired one before. Knowing what's normal makes it much easier to tell a strong company from a weak one.
A full-service company handles the sale end to end — and the good ones will walk you through every line of the contract before you sign anything.

- Runs the sale and handles the moneyStaff on site, card payments, security, and a written accounting afterwards.

Common questions
Questions families ask us
Is Estate Sale Connect really free?
Yes. It is free for families looking for an estate sale company, and leads and sale listings are free for the companies who receive those requests. There is no per-lead charge and no credit card required on either side.
How quickly will estate sale professionals contact me?
Most families hear from a company within a day or two of submitting their request. It can take longer in busy seasons, or in areas with fewer estate sale companies.
How many companies will contact me?
We email the five nearest local professionals directly, and other local companies serving your ZIP code can see your request too — so you get real options to compare. You decide when that stops: the moment you have chosen a company, one click closes your request and companies stop seeing it.
What areas do you serve?
All 50 US states. How many companies respond varies by location, depending on how many estate sale professionals work near you.
Am I obliged to hire one of them?
No. Submitting a request commits you to nothing. Speak to as many or as few of the companies as you like, and walk away if none of them is right.
Is my personal information secure?
We use industry-standard encryption, we never sell your data, and we share your request only with the estate sale professionals matched to your area. We never ask for your street address: companies see your city and ZIP code, and you give the address only to the company you choose. Our privacy policy sets out exactly what we collect and why.
