Why us?
We Know the Market, and How to Sell in it
Facebook Marketplace. Garage sales. Chain estate sale companies. They all sound like solid options, but if you don’t know the Alexandria, Virginia market, you may be stuck with your stuff for longer than you thought.
With Sale by Gale, we don’t spread ourselves thin. We focus on what works — and that’s estate sales rooted in the Alexandria market, where we built our business and our buyer base. It’s the community we know best, and it’s where our expertise runs deepest.
But our reach doesn’t stop at the city limits. Thanks to our strong track record, large network, and loyal following, we know exactly what sells, when it sells best, and how to get it in front of the right people — whether they’re right here in Alexandria, in neighboring communities, or collectors who are willing to travel.
Simply put, we don’t just get things out of your home; we place them where they’ll be valued next.

How it works
Start Your Estate Sale in Just Three Easy Steps
1. Plan
If you’re exploring whether an estate sale might be the right next step, send us a note through our contact form or call us at 703-283-7123. We’ll come by, meet you in person, and walk through the process so you know exactly how it all works.
​
We’ll take time to review the home, understand the scope of the project, and determine whether an estate sale is the right approach. If it is, we’ll put together a contract that confirms your dates and outlines the next steps. If your timeline is tight, just reach out — we’re always happy to see what’s possible.
2. Present
When your sale is booked, we reserve a 7–10-day window just for your home. That block includes the full setup period as well as the sale itself. During the first several days our team is in the home, we're sorting, organizing, and transforming each room into a clean, intentional retail environment. Once everything is staged and ready, we move straight into the sale days — managing shoppers, answering questions, keeping the home secure, and running the event from open to close.
3. Post-Sale
Once the sale is complete, we’ll connect with you to go over what’s sold and what’s still there. If your goal is a fully cleared home, we can help with donation, auction and final debris removal— helping you to move forward without anything left behind.
