Bidding on an item at an auction is exciting, but many first time auction shoppers aren’t exactly sure how they’re going to get their newly purchased product from the auction location to their home or business. Valuable items can create even more of a headache, because you’ll want to make sure that your items are safe and secure throughout the trip from auction to your front door. In this article, we’ll break down the whole auction item shipping process, from purchase to delivery!

Finding An Auction Item Shipping Service
Right after you’ve won an auction, the first step in the process of getting it delivered to its final destination is to find a company that offers auction item packing and shipping services. This step is especially important for high-value auction items like fine art, antiques, electronics, equipment, machinery, collectibles, and more. Once you’ve found a company that ships auction items and serves your area, contact them to get an estimate on packing and shipping costs!
Packing & Shipping Process
Once you’ve found a company that offers auction item shipping services, the next step in the process will be for them to pick up the item and begin to prepare it for shipping. Here at Extreme Packing Solutions, we create custom packaging and crating for our clients’ auction winnings to ensure that they are safe and secure during the shipping and delivery processes. The custom packaging and crates we create will prevent your items from shifting around during shipping and being damaged or broken. Next, we’ll ship your items to their destination using our trusted network of land, air, and ocean carriers, ensuring that your items get to your door safely by an agreed upon date.
Delivery
Once your item has been shipped, the final step is the last-mile delivery process, which involves getting your auction item exactly where it needs to go within your home or business. For smaller items like electronics, this step can be relatively easy, but for larger items like equipment and machinery, you’ll likely need some help. Here at Extreme Packing Solutions, we offer last-mile delivery services that include turn-key installation, so when you hire us, we’ll get your items exactly where they need to go and even be there to help install them!
