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.

Everyone we have dealt with at Maxsold has been great. Very friendly and helpful. Very happy with auction results - hoping to do another client managed auction in the in the new year.
My contacts have so far have been Katrina and Patty. They both have been so helpful and courteous. They answered all of my questions along with sending emails. I just want to thank them again for helping me sell my recently deceased mothers items.
"The staff at Maxsold are so personable and have a way to relax you during the stressful task of moving. Linda and Neil catalogued and photographed the entire day. I was impressed with their positive attitude during the process. The crew on pick up day were also excellent. Thank you. Watching the auction is a great service yet a little nerve racking. The best advice is exactly what you recommended. Don't watch until the last 15 minutes. The organization from start to finish was exceptional."
So far everything has been wonderful. Quick response, nice young people who came to my house, and Patti who was on vacation took me up. I would do this again.
AMAZING. I'm so impressed with this process. Had a great sale, it was easy and quick.
Very efficient friendly team
We had a great experience. Megan and Julia (who did the last day) were awesome: friendly but professional. They handled one problematic purchaser very very well. I would use you again. BTW the sorter/data-input folks were also good.
Jeremy and Patti were great. Helpful and knowledgeable. Solution-oriented.
I used to recommend EBTH to my real estate clients, but now I recommend MaxSold!
"Your staff who came to the apartment for the setup were very helpful and professional, and accommodating considering some of the surprise circumstances - windows being replaced with little notice time. Erica and the office staff were very courteous and helpful, and patient since this process was very new to us. The change of date really helped so as not to clash with the schedule of the apartment building occupants and allowed the bidding over a weekend. Appreciated the last minute updates/corrections to lot descriptions. Feedback from our family - they were able to see the lots and watch the bidding process, very reassuring since this was our sister/aunt/etc possessions being auctioned. We were surprisingly pleased with the results - higher value for her goods than we expected, the process was very quick and with minimal effort on our part, the pick up obviously worked well, heard no complaints from the people in the apartment building. Recommend to family and friends? Yes, already have :-)"
