SERVICES WE PROVIDE:

Organization. We will organize, arrange and display all items to be sold.

Pricing. We will appraise all of your items, large and small. If we believe there are certain items of value that are not within our area of expertise, we may choose to engage an outside appraiser who has that necessary expertise -- at our expense.

Advertising. We will arrange and are responsible for appropriate advertisements and all costs for the sale to appear in media concerning your sale.

This will include both print ads and Online ads. Most sales will take place from 8:00 AM until 2:00 PM.

Conduct of Sale. To assist with the sale, we will hire individuals as needed from a pool of honest, experienced and reliable individuals familiar to us and with the integrity we demand for our services.

Unless you instruct us otherwise, we will conduct your sale with two objectives:

A. To sell every available item; and

B. To maximize the proceeds from the sale.

Disposal of Unsold Items. There will always be some unsold items at the conclusion of a sale. We can gladly suggest names of charities that can pick these up, or, for a nominal service fee, we will make all arrangements for removal of said items.

Cleaning. If a sale requires housekeeping, we can be hired to do certain services. Light cleaning, vacuuming, dusting and garbage removal (able to fit in large trash bags) to make the sale more desirable to customers.

As a courtesy, we will provide professional “˜moving straps’ and “˜moving men’ sliders and dolly to assist customers with the removal of heavy items and furniture. However, we cannot/will not be responsible for any injuries or lifting in any way.

It’s our experience that some customers will purchase more if they are able to use their credit cards. To accommodate them and make for a more successful sale for all, we can accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover and Paypal for your sale. Details on this are spelled out in our contract and will be up to you.

At Morning Star we don’t want you to feel overwhelmed. We've found that if you look at your loved ones house 'as a whole' it can be just that. Overwhelming!

We proceed one step at a time. You have to get everything done all at once, or in one day.

We suggest you start with the kitchen and then the bath rooms. These rooms are the ones that are the least likely to cause emotional distress. Try to hold off on going through your family member's personal items until the time proves necessary.

Going through your families possessions and mementos is often one of the most difficult things you'll have do. We will guide you through all the steps that can make this task a little easier on you.

Most importantly. We suggest you sort, but DO NOT throw anything away. Please, we cannot stress this enough!

We have found even the smallest items you may feel are certainly trash, can and will bring big profit to your sale, even if it's 25-50¢ at a time!

Items such as baby-food jars filled w/old nails, Tupperware without their lids, clothes/shoes/old linens, light bulbs, even half-filled cleaning products WILL sell.

In everything we do, our desire is to be sensitive and professional with your property and possessions.

Please, feel free to contact us with any questions you may have. You'll find our rates are the best in the business!
