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.

Your rep was very pleasant and thorough explaining the auction process and answering any questions that I had. She has my thanks. The auction final results far exceeded my expectations. The total amount sold for over twice the amount that I was expecting. Your staff was very efficient and friendly and I can't thank them and MaxSold enough for all that you have done for me. Thank-you very much.
My experience with max sold went well. The people were excellent to deal with, especially Paula,.. She was very professional when dealing with people and myself before the auction and during the pick up. I would highly recommend your service, based on final results, and Paula making things run smooth! Thank you.
Omg. Patti is wonderful. She went way out of her way to accommodate me and give me peace of mind and she certainly did that.
We were so happy with our auction and results. The MaxSold team were professional from start to finish and we would recommend you to anyone!
Very smooth process. Very quick response in a tight timeframe. Reps setting up and during pickup were very professional and friendly.
Tons of information provided to get started. Easy, painless (other than watching bids), helpful staff. We'll do it again.
Want to thank Adam for his patience in handling me and our auction.
Katherine is terrific. She is easy to work with, accommodating and very helpful with information. I felt less anxious after the time she spent with me.
Your representatives have kept us informed at every point in the process. We are impressed with the professionalism (attention to detail) that you have exhibited. Hopefully the rest of this adventure will be as smooth.
Good smooth transactions fast payment and easy working software
