Pickup Instructions

It's important to review the auction’s pickup details so you can retrieve your items smoothly and on time.

Where Do I Pick Up My Items?

Pickup instructions vary by auction and seller. The best place to find your specific pickup location and times is in the Shipping / Pickup section found in Auction Information on each auction and each lot within that auction. Auctioneers organize their own pickup schedules. HiBid does not have any information on specific auction companies. If you need to arrange special accommodations, please reach out directly to that auction house.

To find them:

  1. Go back to the auction you bid in on HiBid.

  2. Click "View Terms & Conditions" listed on the auction page.

  3. Look for sections labeled Pickup, Load Out, or Removal Times.

You may want to bid on items or have already won items from multiple auctions or sellers. Always double-check which auction your item belongs to.

Pickup Dates & Times

Each auction has specific pickup windows, often only a few days after the auction ends. If you miss it, items may be forfeited or additional fees may apply.

Always confirm:

  • Pickup date(s)

  • Pickup time windows

  • Whether an appointment is required

  • If proof of purchase or ID is needed

Each auctioneer sets their own terms & conditions so be sure to read through these prior to bidding. Auctioneers also may use third party scheduling software. If that is so, please adhere to the agreed-upon time for picking up your items.

Load Out Instructions

Some sellers have special requirements:

  • Forklift or loadout assistance may not be available

  • You may need to bring your own help or tools

  • Some locations may charge a fee for loading assistance

Check Pickup Info Before You Bid

Before bidding, review all auction terms. This helps avoid:

  • Winning items you can’t pick up

  • Unexpected location or scheduling conflicts

  • Additional fees or complications at pickup

Still Have Questions?

If you're unsure where your item is or who to contact:

  • Return to the auction page and use the “Contact Auctioneer” button.

  • Or check your confirmation email for auctioneer contact details.
