To ensure a smooth and efficient pickup, please take a moment to review the following important information. This particular home has a multi-level layout, so understanding the logistics beforehand will make your experience much easier.

 

Important Pickup Information - Please Read Carefully!

We want your pickup experience to be as seamless as possible. Please take note of the following, especially regarding the multi-split level nature of this home:

  • Bedroom Furniture: If your winning bids include bedroom furniture, please be aware that these items are located on a level that requires navigating one flight of stairs down to reach the main level. From there, you'll exit through the front door onto a large, covered open landing that conveniently runs along the side of the house, leading directly to the driveway for easy loading.

  • Family Room Furnishings: For those who snagged the comfy leather love seat, sofa, or other family room furnishings, you have a couple of options for retrieval:

  • You can move these items up one flight of stairs to the main level and out the front door.

  • Alternatively, these items can be taken out the patio door and around the back yard to access the driveway. Please assess the size and weight of your items to determine the most manageable route.

  • Rugs (Lower Level Basement): The beautiful rugs you've won are located in the lower level basement. Please note that accessing these items will require navigating two flights of stairs.

Important Considerations for Bulky Items:

We want to ensure your safety and the integrity of your purchases. If you have acquired any large or heavy items, we strongly recommend enlisting the help of professional movers.

Need Assistance with Pickup, Loading, or Delivery?

For your convenience, we have partnered with EZ Breezy Movers. They are experienced and equipped to handle the safe and efficient transport of your winnings. You can contact them directly to schedule professional moving services at 612-356-2017. Please make arrangements with them directly for pricing and scheduling.

No Loading or moving Assistance Provided by Auction Staff:

Please remember that our on-site team will not be able to provide loading assistance. Buyers are solely responsible for bringing their own adequate labor, tools, truck, or other suitable vehicle for the safe and efficient transport of their purchased items, unless you have made prior arrangements with a professional moving service like EZ Breezy Movers.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in making this pickup process as smooth as possible for everyone. We're excited for you to enjoy your new treasures!

If you have any questions regarding pickup times or location (as per the auction terms), please refer back to your winning bidder email and the auction details on K-BID.com.

Thank you again for bidding on K-BID.com! We hope to see you at our next auction!
