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.

It all went remarkably well...! All thanks to the MaxSold team...
If there were any issues they were addressed quickly. Everybody we came in contact with had a nice demeanor. We have also referred them to others.
The process of cataloging and photographing was well organized and smooth. The knowledge and experience of those involved was obvious.
Very productive and quick response
This is my second experience with MaxSold and it has been as good as the first...excellent staff, friendly and helpful and considerate. Process is streamlined and efficient. I'm hoping that this sale will be as productive as the first one. Thank you.
Lori Padgett has been a pleasure to deal with.....she is very prompt at returning calls and/or replying to emails and informative.
I do believe Wendy has a good reaction in delivering her work. Very pleasant to talk too, and knows her stuff, just hope she will deliver and make me happier. This is my first time they are doing stuff for me, but so far so good.
We are in awe of the ability to clean a house out with your service - and people will actually re--use the stuff, so environmentally it really is a great service!!
Initial contact with each person has been excellent. Each one has been helpful and friendly. My first auction starts next week so I will be able to give a more complete review after that.
My initial inquiry was answered fully by Adam. Follow up re: details handled more than capably by Erika. She was thorough and reassuring. Last minute changes/arrangements re: winning bidder pick up fully handled by Adam in a most Satisfactory way. Thank you.
