January 2026
We launched our first pick up depot in Mississauga. Using pick up saves the customer about 40% on their delivery costs.
Recently launched, the response has been amazing. We are extending this out to all auctions in the next few weeks.
February 2026
We launched our online knowledge base and live chat and updated our FAQs. This should help customers immediately find answers to the common questions. We also hope to free up some time for our customer care team to focus on other items.
We have made some adjustments to our toll free number to create tickets for each incoming call for those that are unable to use email.

There can be confusion as to which items we have picked up.
pkgPlace now scans all of the labelled boxes picked up from the auctions. We provide every auction with complimentary access to our software to print labels and track each box all the way back to our warehouse. Auctions can also track missing boxes in the Missing Boxes tab.
Using these barcodes, customers can track the items from the auction to their doorstep.
We have insurance. If the box is not selected at the time of making a request, we will not insure the items.
Similar to other large carriers, we have a standard $100 insurance coverage on missing and eligible damaged items. For any additional insurance coverage, we have added a check box on our delivery request form.
There are many items that we do not insure and are sent at ‘shipper’s risk’. Fragile, antiques, items without original packaging, TV’s and other monitors are just a few.

With our experience across numerous auction businesses, we offer practical guidance to help you avoid costly mistakes and build a sustainable foundation, without breaking the bank. Let’s navigate those early challenges together and set your auction up for success.
Our cataloging app (in beta) streamlines auction listing by providing descriptions, images, MSRP, along with barcode integration, enabling faster and more efficient posting.
We help online auctions streamline warehouse operations, managing inventory from arrival to customer delivery with software, picking slips, a customer app, and more.
As your first line of contact, we expertly manage customer issues, freeing your team to focus on current and upcoming auctions.


It all started with a guy asking to have some stuff picked up at an auction. The rest is history.

Leading our customer care team has not been easy. Nayab and her team continue to implement the tools to help our customers along the way.

And my life changed forever! Reminded me how to laugh again.

As things exploded, were able to launch our first version of AuctionPro software for complete auction warehouse management.
We then released a customer version of software to make it easy for our customers to request a delivery of their items.

It did not take long to outgrow our second warehouse. We thought it was huge when we moved here in May 2024. Yikes!!

Online chat and web accessible knowledge helps answer many questions in real time.
Barcode all boxes for accurate reporting.
Numerous software updates.
