About Handled

Handled exists to take the pressure off when dealing with unwanted items feels like too much. Whether it’s a deceased estate, downsizing, or a property full of things to sort through, we step in and handle the process from start to finish. We work with rural families, lifestyle block owners, and people managing everything from a few items to full clear-outs. Our job is simple — remove the hassle, deal with the details, and find the best outcome for what’s there. Every situation is different. We keep things practical, fair, and focused on what actually makes sense for you. Often, it’s not that something has no value — it’s just in the wrong place.

Often, it’s not that an item has no value, it’s just no longer useful where it is.

Practical expertise
We understand what it actually takes to deal with items outside of a shop or showroom.
From one-off pieces to full mixed estates, we help you figure out what’s worth selling, what’s not, and the best way to handle it.
Strong negotiation & buyer access
Getting value isn’t just about listing something, it’s about who sees it and how it’s handled.
We manage buyers, conversations, and negotiations to get the right result without the back-and-forth.
Discreet and respectful
Some situations are personal, especially estates and downsizing.
Everything is handled professionally, respectfully, and without making things harder than they need to be.

FAQ

Do you handle deceased estates?

Yes. We regularly work with families managing estates and understand these situations can be sensitive.We handle everything respectfully, from sorting through items to selling and clearing what’s not needed.

Do I need to organise everything before you come?

No. That’s what we’re here for.We can walk through the property with you and help sort what’s worth selling, keeping, or clearing.

How quickly can you get started?

Usually pretty quickly.Get in touch and we’ll arrange a time to come take a look and talk through options.

What types of items do you handle?

We work with a wide range of assets, from individual items to full collections. Nothing is off the table, if you’re unsure whether something is suitable, get in touch and we’ll advise.

Do you sell items on consignment or buy them outright?

Both.Depending on the items, volume, and complexity, we may recommend selling on your behalf, an agreed outright purchase, or a combination of the two.

How do you decide which option is best?

We consider value, demand, effort required, and likely timeframes. Our role is to recommend the simplest and most effective approach for your situation.

Do I have control over pricing?

Yes.For items sold on your behalf, you approve a reserve price before anything is listed. For outright purchases, we agree on a price upfront.

How do your fees work?

Our standard fee is 20%, which covers everything, pricing, marketing, negotiation, logistics, and managing the sale from start to finish.
If an item sells above the agreed price, we share in that upside. In that case, we take 40% of the amount above the agreed price as a performance share. This aligns our incentives to achieve the best possible outcome.

What happens if an item doesn’t sell?

If an item doesn’t sell after a reasonable marketing period, we’ll review the options together. This may include adjusting the price, changing the approach, or returning the item.
If an item is returned unsold, a discounted service fee may apply, capped at no more than 10% of the originally agreed price, to cover assessment, marketing, and negotiation efforts. Any fees are discussed and agreed upfront.
Our goal is always to achieve a sale — fees are a fallback, not the goal.

Do you handle collection and transport?

Yes.We manage collection and logistics as part of the process, so you don’t need to organise packing, transport, or delivery.

Is the process discreet?

Absolutely.All enquiries, collections, negotiations, and sales are handled professionally and with discretion.

How long does it take to sell items?

Timeframes vary depending on the items and the chosen approach. Some sales are quick, while others benefit from patience. We’ll be upfront about expectations from the start.

Do you handle collection and transport?

Yes.We manage collection and logistics as part of the process, so you don’t need to organise packing, transport, or delivery.

Is the process discreet?
