PLEASE TAKE NOTICE:
If you are planning to sell ON-SITE by Auction this year, open dates are getting
picked up as it gets pretty chilly for a house sale after holiday in October. Then
there's only a couple later dates for Tools & the like before possibility of snow.

than moving goods to a hall -- due to the high cost of moving & hall rental charges.
