  • DescrWe charge by load size. The more space your items take up on the truck, the more it costs. Before we do anything we give you a free, no-obligation estimate so you know exactly what you're paying before we start. No surprises, no hidden fees.

  • Literally everything. Furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronics, yard waste, construction debris, clothing, boxes — if it fits on a truck, we'll take it. You don't need to sort anything or wonder if we'll accept a certain item. Just show us what you've got

  • We move fast. In many cases we can get out the same day or the very next day. Call us at 314-605-7559 and we'll get you scheduled as quickly as possible.

  • Yes — for smaller jobs we can often get it done the same day. Scheduling is flexible and we work around your availability.

  • An estate buy-out is when Tommy Trades purchases the contents of an estate directly from you — no estate sale, no strangers in the home, no weeks of planning. We come to the property, walk through everything you're looking to sell, and make you a fair offer on the spot. Once you accept, we schedule a time to come back and remove everything we purchased. Most jobs are completed in a single day.

  • No minimum at all. We'll buy out anything from a few pieces of furniture to an entire estate. If you're not sure whether it's worth calling, just call — we're happy to take a look.

  • Very quickly. We can typically get out for a free estimate the same day or the next day after you call.

  • Our auctions are hosted on Hi-Bid and run weekly. Each auction goes live on Friday night and closes the following Friday at 7pm. To participate, click the link to our current auction, register for a free Hi-Bid account, and you can start bidding immediately.

  • Pickup is on Saturdays from 10am to 2pm — the day after the auction closes. All winners must pick up during that window. We are local pickup only and do not offer shipping. Please note that if you miss the Saturday pickup window we are unable to arrange a secondary pickup, so make sure you're available before you bid.

  • Yes. We can donate items upon request — just let us know when you call or at the time of your estimate. We also take all metal to a scrapyard to be properly recycled rather than sending it to a landfill.

  • Yes, Tommy Trades Reselling LLC is fully licensed and insured. You can hire us with confidence knowing your property and belongings are in professional hands.
