About the Estate Sale Industry

There was once a time when estate sales were rare, where people held onto fewer belongings for life, passing them down through generations. But times have changed! Today, people accumulate a mountain of cherished items throughout their lives until they need or want to ease life transitions. That’s where Blue Moon Estate Sales steps in—we help families downsize and find new homes for these loved treasures.

Here is the exciting part: with the baby boomer generation on the cusp of retirement, a massive wave of downsizing is about to occur. They’re ready to embrace a simpler life with less stuff, and Blue Moon is here to guide them through the process. Wouldn't you love to be a part of it as a franchisee?

What is an Estate Sale?

An estate sale, sometimes called a tag sale, is a way of selling the entire contents of a home or business in a timely fashion. Estate sales should not be confused with yard sales, flea markets, or auctions. An estate sale is done on site and prices are established before the start of the sale. Once the contents are staged and priced, the public is invited to browse and buy in an environment similar to that of a retail establishment.

Items most closely associated with estate sales include furniture, art, jewelry, and tableware, but nearly any tangible asset can be sold. Here at Blue Moon, we can sell everything from 18K gold bangles to the hardware on cabinets. Because of the great diversity in our clients’ belongings, each and every week is different. “Never a dull moment” has never been more true.

Our clients vary as much as our sales, but many use our services when downsizing, moving, or liquidating a loved one’s property. These events can be incredibly overwhelming on their own, which is why folks often turn to professionals like Blue Moon to take care of the physical property side of things. Holding an estate sale is a major undertaking, but we have it down to a science.

Why Estate Sales Are the Perfect Downsizing Solution for Your Clients

Downsizing can be overwhelming. Yard sales and online marketplaces often lead to undervalued items and require significant effort. Estate Sales with Blue Moon ensures your client gets the most value for their belongings while we handle the heavy lifting—from staging and pricing to managing the sale itself. This reduces stress for your client and allows them to focus on their new chapter, with the assurance that their treasured items are finding new appreciative homes. It's a win-win for everyone involved.
