Collections & Shipping

COLLECTIONS

We are open for collections by appointment Monday – Friday between 8.30am and 5pm. Saturday collections between 8.30am and 2pm are only available when there is a sale (check Auction Calendar) and STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT. Smaller items can be collected from our Harrogate Office by prior arrangement during their office hours.

 

STORAGE

Storage charges will be levied on all lots not collected within seven days of the sale. This will include a handling fee of £5 plus VAT per lot as well as a storage charge of £5 plus VAT per lot per day. Furniture, carpets, clocks and larger works of art will normally remain in the salerooms for seven working days following each sale, after which they will be removed to storage and subsequently arrangements for collection must be made in advance.
