At Burns Auction, we specialize in taking care of the most overwhelming of estates. We know our stuff. Whether it is fine art, jewelry, antiques or collectibles – we excel at evaluation, organization, presentation, marketing and the sale of items of value to bidders from around the world.
Every estate has valuable items – both obvious objects and treasures hiding in plain sight. We are knowledgeable and thorough, leaving no stone unturned as we sort through every box, nook, cranny, pile and closet in our quest to maximize the value of what is in the home. Once items are identified and catalogued, we market them aggressively to our large bidder base both locally and around the world. Don’t leave things to chance; hire an expert to manage your estate liquidation needs.
Our unparalleled expertise and proven process allow us to coordinate large-scale auctions with minimal fuss for you. Because we hold most of our auctions online only at the estate, there are no moving or storage fees. You also maintain possession of all items throughout the process. Don’t have enough for an entire estate auction? We also accept select consignments for our higher-end quarterly gallery auctions at our facility.
No job is too big. We do not get overwhelmed. This is what we do. We transform jam-packed estates into empty, clean homes that are ready for sale.

To be sure, the huge physical tasks associated with estates are a major undertaking. But we also realize that a host of complex emotional challenges are often at hand as families strive to deal with grief, loss and one another. We understand. We work hard to put everyone at ease, answering all questions and concerns and going the extra mile to ensure that family members are comfortable with our process.
A kitchen table. Pots and pans. A mattress to sleep on. It’s easy to take these things for granted. But some don’t even have these basic items.
Burns Auction is uniquely positioned to help. Each year, we donate thousands of pounds of clothing, furniture, household goods and more from the homes we’ve worked in. If it can be used by the needy, it should not go to the dump. Useful items that didn’t get bids will find new use helping those in need, and you will receive a donation receipt.
We donate to charities including Volunteers of America, Habitat for Humanity, Goodwill, the Salvation Army and smaller local charities recommended by our clients. Businesses can “do well by doing good,” and we’re committed to this philosophy.
