I work part time for an auction company and we do a lot of these clean up auctions. It isn't a job for the faint hearted. It takes a big crew several days to do the job. Sometimes weeks. Most of the time the family is just overwhelmed and need someone to come in and take over. We start with trash and scrap dumpsters over a period of several days. You have to sort it all out. You have to have some idea of what will sell and what won't. What is left is either loaded up and taken to the auction barn or set up on site. This is not a job for amateurs. An auction is held, usually on-line. Each item has to be sorted, pictured and described. After the auction, pickup is scheduled. It often takes 10 people to direct traffic, run loaders and make sure people get their stuff and only their stuff. There are always any number of ticked off people for any number of different reasons. You have to have very thick skin. After the pickup day or days, there is still a big mess. A crew is sent in again to clean up everything that was left behind. The auction company charges for time and equipment used and if the proceeds of the auction are less than the cost, the estate will have to pay. If the other way around, the estate will get a check. The auction company performs a service that would have been a huge mess for the estate and certainly doesn't get rich. I know I would never try to tackle it myself. The trick is to get a good auction company with good references.

Today's Featured Article - The Ferguson System Principal An implement cutting through the soil at a certain depth say eight inches requires a certain force or draft to pull it. Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically?
