Our Story
MaxSold is an unique and innovative way of helping families and businesses, with their downsizing and estate sale needs. Despite being founded in 2010, our auction roots dates back to 1978. It is with this deep understanding of our customer needs that we set out to re-invent the auction world, our goal: minimize customer intrusion and maximize returns.
MaxSold uses local managers to help catalogue and sell everything through our competitive online auction platform. The process is non-intrusive and sensitive. Gone are the wandering crowds poking through your home or business.
MaxSold has grown into the #1 downsizing and auction company in North America. This has given our sellers maximum exposure online. Our auction pre-bid system ensures that buyers are kept actively bidding until the close, providing customers maximum returns.
As we grow, we continue to improve the customer experience and outcomes. We are expanding into new cities, all while reducing our environmental footprint, offering products a second life and reducing waste.
We're growing fast. Really, really fast.
Our company is of 500 support staff and local auction managers, all working hard to make MaxSold a service people love and keep enjoying. We have in-house staff that sit on the front lines, helping customers solve problems and make the most of their experience. Our marketing team, developers, and user-experience designers are constantly innovating, collaborating, and fixing things. Local auction managers are on-site helping residential and business sellers catalogue, photograph, post and sell their goods online. And our management team continues to build partnerships, making MaxSold much more than an auction platform, and grow it into a self-sustainable marketplace designed to support families and businesses alike.
All our efforts have been noticed! In fact, we have been recognized as one of the Fastest-Growing Companies in Canada, right next to Spotify and Canada Goose.

Awesome experience every step of the way, ending with a tremendous auction result! Thank you!
I was quite impressed. Both, the knowledge of the process and knowledge of the merchandise available for sale made me happy I chose MaxSold
I really like working with Amanda. She was persistent, but not intrusive or pesty. Her patience and manner are what help me make a decision to use MaxSold.
The process of cataloging and photographing was well organized and smooth. The knowledge and experience of those involved was obvious.
Great staff...efficient and friendly and well informed. This was my first experience with MaxSold. It was recommended to me by a neighbour and I have recommended it to another who is thinking of down-sizing next year. Thank you very much. A good experience all round.
As a veteran professional organizer, I have high standards for the 3rd party vendors I bring in to help my clients. And I have to say that so far those high standards have been met and exceeded by MaxSold. The transparency and clarity of the MaxSold process make it an extremely appealing alternative to the comparatively murky world of traditional estate sales. The integrity, efficiency, professionalism and friendliness of the MaxSold ""ninja"" team that arrived at my client's home last week to assemble; photograph and catalog my clients' belongings were amazing. Julia's skill for managing time, manpower and other resources perfectly complemented Mark's understanding of multiple categories of collectibles and salable goods. My client and I have yet to see how the online auction & pickup process goes. But so far, we are beyond impressed and grateful to MaxSold for the way they've simplified the process of downsizing her family's unneeded belongings. Julia and Mark were amazing!! They worked together efficiently, professionally and creatively to identify, photograph and describe my client's many rare, unusual, and sometimes truly quirky belongings. They explained their process, and welcomed our input; and they knew exactly how to group everything for maximum sales appeal. We couldn't have done it without them, and I can't wait to use them again!
communication was excellent!
Adam and his team are Extremely supportive and engaged. He took the time to meet over additional questions and make suggestions to strengthen our auction and our return. Max Sold is an excellent resource for charities trying to maximize return on event auctions!
