    What can we collect from auction houses?

    Every auction purchase is different. We choose an appropriate vehicle and handling plan after reviewing the lot information, dimensions and release conditions.

    Antique furniture

    Tables, cabinets, chairs and larger purchases. Tell us about dimensions, stairs, dismantling or extra crew requirements.

    Fine art and collectables

    Paintings, framed works and delicate pieces. Packaging, handling and cover must be agreed before collection.

    Commercial equipment

    Workshop items, machinery and business auction lots, subject to weight, safe loading and suitable vehicles.

    Multiple auction lots

    Several items from one sale or multiple collection sites, with timed releases and route planning quoted individually.

    How auction house collection works

    1

    Tell us what you've won

    Enter the auction house collection location and delivery postcode in the quick quote calculator. Describe the lot, approximate dimensions and any special handling.

    2

    Share release requirements

    Provide the auction house name, collection deadline, paid invoice or release reference, and any identification or authorisation required for the driver.

    3

    We confirm the collection

    We check the collection window, access, vehicle, loading arrangements and any packing needed, then confirm the final service and price before booking.

    4

    Delivery to your address

    Your purchase is collected and delivered under the agreed service. Any proof-of-delivery arrangements are confirmed for your job.

    Important details before collection

    Release documents

    Have your paid invoice, lot numbers, buyer reference and any written authority ready. Individual auction houses set their own rules.

    Deadlines and access

    Share the last collection date, booking requirements, loading-bay restrictions and site opening hours. Storage charges may apply after an auction deadline.

    Handling and cover

    Confirm measurements, weight, fragile surfaces, packing and declared value. We check appropriate handling and applicable driver cover before acceptance.

    Dedicated or flexible collection?

    Choose urgent dedicated delivery where a strict release deadline or delicate item makes direct transport important. Where timing and goods allow, ask about a flexible collection option. Final suitability, schedule and pricing depend on the actual auction requirements.

    Auction collection FAQs

    Can you collect an auction lot on my behalf?

    Yes, subject to availability and the auction house's release rules. We normally need the collection location, lot details, paid invoice or release reference, and written authority where required.

    Do you collect from auction houses anywhere in the UK?

    We arrange collections across the UK through our courier network. Coverage, collection slots and the right vehicle are checked before accepting each job.

    Can you collect before an auction house deadline?

    Tell us the final collection date and the site's opening hours. We can check urgent or timed collection options, but availability must be confirmed before booking.

    Will the driver pack my auction purchase?

    Packing and protective materials can be requested and quoted separately. Please tell us if the lot is unpacked, fragile, valuable or cannot be handled by one person.

    How much does auction collection and delivery cost?

    The quote depends on collection and delivery locations, vehicle size, driver positioning, handling, packing, access, deadline and any waiting or extra crew. Use the calculator for an initial estimate; we confirm the final price against the auction requirements.

    Are fragile or valuable auction lots insured?

    Cover depends on the assigned driver's policy, declared value, item type, packing and exclusions. Disclose any fragile or high-value purchase before booking so applicable cover can be checked.
