Auction Services and Cleanout Referrals
- Auction services, if needed, will be provided by third party professionals having long standing and trustworthy partnerships with us.
- Decisions on which auction house to use are usually made based on the type of items to be auctioned and in consultation with the client.
- Curious Cat Estate Sales does not do cleanouts. If one is required, we will make recommendations of qualified third party professionals previously vetted. That contract is between the cleanout company and the client, not CCES.
