From single-item consignments to full estate and commercial liquidations, run start to finish by one team.
Downsizing, retirement, relocation, or a full estate settlement — personal property handled with respect and discretion.
Every sale is cataloged and hosted on HiBid, so bidders across and beyond Alaska can compete for your lots.
Surplus inventory, equipment, tools, or a full commercial closeout — converted into liquid funds efficiently.
Have select items to sell? Tell us about them and we'll fit them into an upcoming catalog.
Clear pickup windows for every auction, with shipping available on select smaller lots.
Proceeds are disbursed 14–21 business days after the auction closes and buyer payments are collected.
Simple Process
Whether it's a household or a business closing its doors, the path from first call to final payout looks the same.
Tell us about your items or project through our contact page.
We schedule an initial visit, walk the property or inventory, and scope the sale.
Items go live on HiBid, where registered bidders place proxy max bids until the auction closes.
Buyers collect during the scheduled window; your payout follows in 14–21 business days.
Why Aurora
Every situation is different. We handle all of them with the same care.
We know the local buyers and the local market.
Downsizing, relocating, or blending households — handled with the same discretion as a traditional estate settlement.
Proxy bidding brings in buyers well beyond who would show up in person.
You know the split and the payout window before the sale ever starts.
Good to Know
Clear answers for bidders, consignors, families, and businesses planning a liquidation.
We host our online catalogs through HiBid. Find the auction, click "Register to Bid," create or log into your HiBid account, add a valid credit or debit card, choose your pickup or shipping preference, and agree to the terms. See full bidding details.
Yes, a standard buyer's premium of 17% is added to the final hammer price of each winning lot. Please factor this into your maximum bidding limit.
Our online bidding platform uses a proxy bidding system. You can enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay, and the system will automatically bid on your behalf in incremental steps only as needed to keep you in the lead, up to your limit.
Please bring a copy of your paid invoice (printed or on your phone), a valid photo ID, and adequate boxes, packing materials, and help to load your items.
Not at all. Many of our liquidations happen during major life transitions — downsizing for retirement, relocating, transitioning to assisted living, blending households, or restructuring/closing a business. We handle every situation with the utmost respect, discretion, and care.
Payouts, minus our standard commission split and any agreed-upon fees, are typically processed and disbursed within 14 to 21 business days following the completion of the auction and collection of all buyer payments.
Tell us a little about your items or project. Aurora will help you understand the next step and whether an auction or liquidation is the right fit.
