EstateMax Estate & Downsizing Sales & Auctions

Awesome! Laurie and her crew arrived on time and efficiently cleared the entire home of all furniture, personal items and trash. The took great care to sort items for consignment, goodwill or garbage/recycling. Laurie even saved a bunch of art supplies to donate to a school. I would highly recommend EstateMax

With the passing of my mother came the overwhelming job of clearing out my childhood home and my deceased fathers huge workshop. After sifting through 50 yrs of “stuff” Laurie, Steve and the EstateMax team stepped in to finish the job. Laurie advertised to the masses, priced and ran the 3 day estate sale, what didn’t sell (which wasn’t much) was packed up and donated in my name. Dumpsters were then brought in and all of the trash was hauled away leaving the property completely empty, ready to be cleaned and placed on the market. I made enough money from the sale to pay their commission and trash removal and still made a nice profit. The best part was that I didn’t have to do anything myself. Thanks to EstateMax, a huge burden was lifted from my shoulders during this very emotional time.

Laurie Zook is a true professional. From start to finish, she handled the sale of our belongings with a great deal of care, giving us valuable advice regarding staging. The entire house was cleared out and broom-cleaned as promised. All deliverables met with a tidy sum at the end. Thank you, Laurie.

I cannot say enough good things about the work performed by Laurie Zook and the entire Estatemax team. This project was with an old house filled with antiques and a barn. Laurie communicated at each step of the way and answered any questions I had. I would hire her again in a second. Experience matters in large estate sales and her years of experience shows in every step of the process.

Wonderful experience using Laurie and team! True professionals! I am so glad they were recommended to me by my boss! Best referral ever!

Laurie Zook and her team are very experienced and professional. We were overwhelmed with moving out of our house after 23 years. Because of their experience with this it was easy and seamless. We were pleasantly surprised with the money made at the sale! It was a huge effort on their parts to get everything cleared out and empty on time. I am so glad we hired Laurie and Steve and the team!

Moving/downsizing is one of the most stressful events in your lifetime. Parting with precious items that you can no longer use is a difficult and daunting task. Laurie and Steve from EstateMax helped us to focus only on our upcoming move and the items we were keeping, and took all of the worry away about what to do with everything else. You can move into your new home and focus on your future, and leave the rest in their capable hands. EstateMax provides a very valuable service!!

They were very reliable and professional. They had all the sales equipment. They knew what they were doing. They were efficient. They were very terrific

The sale went well and the house was empty when all was complete. Painless and easy .

Laurie and Steve with EstateMax saved my sanity. My father passed away and left behind a hoarder’s home full of STUFF that I had neither the time nor energy to deal with. Other estate sale companies took one look and turned up their noses. Laurie and Steve were reassuring and made me feel at ease immediately with the scope of work ahead of them. Laurie was very pleasant to work with- a great communicator, straightforward and honest. They managed to sell a ton of stuff, to my utter shock- enough to offset the cost of hiring them, with some leftover. Even if they hadn’t sold one thing, I would have gladly paid their (very fair) fee to clean out the place. They left the house spotless as promised and made this entire experience a breeze. Highly recommend and would hire again without reservation!

Estate Max was very helpful in the estate sale and clean out of my grandmother's home during COVID-19. We were unable to assist in the clean out since out of state and everything was taken care in a timely matter for the sale of the house.

Estate Max sales are simply the best! The contents of each estate sale are very well organized and displayed. The prices are fair and checkout is quick and easy. I highly recommend Estate Max!!!!!

The process, start to finish, was amazing! After meeting the staff and signing the contract, I was very comfortable handing the reins over. It can be a very stressful time but they handled everything fairly and professionally. Highly recommended

I am pleased with how Laurie at EstateMax handled the estate sale. She was very responsive to my questions, and we communicated regularly throughout the process. I found Laurie to be both easy to work with and very professional. She sent me a video of how they staged the house for the sale, and I was very impressed with how it looked. If I ever need to have another estate sale done, I will hire Laurie again.

I attend the estate sales that they do. Estate Max has good Facebook announcements about upcoming sales that keep me going back. The sales are pretty well organized and I always get a fair deal. Seems professional. The places are always pretty secure.

It went well. I came back to an empty home and everything was clean and taken care of.

Overall the sale went great. Estate MAX set everything up, advertised, executed the sale and had my house spotless all within 3 days. I definitely would use EstateMAX again

A lot of work but people are generally just interested in getting quality furniture, home furnishings and clothing for next to nothing!

Estate Max was always ready and punctual on every project. They provide quality, effective services, and has gone above and beyond for there clients and vendors.

I am shamefully late in completing this review! Laurie and Steve are so much better than my brother and I imagined. Prompt, knowledgeable, connected, motivated, successful, and dedicated experts in the field who delivering to their an outstanding product to their customers. FAR EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS. They know and have solid relationships with real experts and collectors and can find amazing cash value in estate property. They seem to love their work and the results were outstanding! Very glad we picked EstateMax!!

EstateMax did an excellent job. They took care of every aspect of the estate sale and the subsequent removal of all unsold items. The sale was conducted on a Friday and Saturday. The following Tuesday the house was completely empty. They're very good at what they do which allowed me to avoid all hassles involved in trying to arrange the emptying out of the house.

They came in & evaluated everything, felt there was plenty of stuff for a sale, advertised the Estate Sale, prepped for the sale and cleaned up from the sale. They SOLD what they could, DONATED what they couldn’t and CLEANED out and trashed what was trash. My sister & I were long distance and needed the HELP that Laurie and ESTATEMAX provided!! We paid upfront, but made some money on the Estate Sale.... It was a godsend! We just wanted our Mother’s things to have a new home - sold or donated - and the house emptied. It was a blessing!!

Working with Steve and Laurie was a very good experience. We would definitely hire them again due to their responsiveness, professional behavior, and attention to detail. Steve and Laurie paved the way for a stress-free move from selling a home. As it turned out, we sold our home earlier than expected and had to move quickly. Steve and Laurie adjusted their schedule to support us and made for a very successful sale of items and interaction. Thank you Steve and Laurie.

Laurie and Steve came to our family member’s home to help us liquidate his assets. I was able to reach Laurie directly on the phone, then she booked a time to come see the property promptly. They came up with an action plan, and got to work right away. We were impressed with the very quick turn around of the estate sale, and the amount of funds Estatemax was able to procure for our family. They did an excellent job! Reasonably priced, fast service, and quick pay out. Fantastic job!

Laurie and Steve were highly professional and did a great job of selling several items that we knew would be difficult to find buyers for. After some large furniture items did not sell during the weekend sale, in part due to poor weather, they suggested continuing the sale for another day, advertising the remaining items at rock-bottom prices, and most of the remaining inventory was then sold. We needed to dispose of the furniture somehow, so selling it at low cost was better than paying for it to be hauled away. Steve and Laurie listened to our request to do this. Their setup and signage at the sale was very professional. They clearly have tons of experience conducting estate sales, and they know how to manage the process.
