We are now accepting entries into our next sale on 3rd March. Please click here for an entry form  . Most of our sales close well before the sale date; please enter your items early to avoid disappointment.

We hold regular household and antique sales at Melbourne Village Hall, YO42 4RB, near Pocklington, offering a comprehensive service with pre-sale advice on all classes of goods including stock clearances.  *Please see our Buyer and Seller Conditions below.

House clearance a speciality – we can also provide haulage and storage facilities

From complete or part house clearance, selling any items of value and disposing of all un-saleable items, to FREE furniture storage prior to the auction. Although haulage is chargeable it is undertaken by our team of professional furniture removers equipped with a range of vehicles able to cope with the largest of items and properties.

What do our clients say ?

Completed entry forms must be received in advance and acceptance confirmed, before entries are brought to the Sale Room.

Items must be received at the Sale Room by 4.00pm, on the day before the sale; if this isn't possible then alternative arrangements can usually be agreed, in advance, by contacting the Auction Department on 01430-874000.

Commission at our Collective Sales is charged at 15% + VAT on all goods sold, with a minimum charge of £5.00. All payments will be sent out within 2 weeks of the auction date, less any expenses and commission.

Buyers’ Conditions

All items purchased must be collected by 8.00pm on the day of the sale, unless haulage has been arranged. If items fail to be collected, a charge of £2 for small items and £10 for larger items will occur.

A Buyers Premium of 10% + VAT is charged upon every item purchased. Payments of accounts are made by cash and cheque only if accompanied by a banker's reference or bank card.

It’s worth noting that if you bid on an item at any auction, once the auctioneer has banged down their gavel in your favour and said “sold” a legal contract exists and you are obliged to pay for the item you have bid on. Always set yourself a top limit and try not to get carried away!
