He was very helpful with advice, quite knowledgeable, and ethical. He not only offered us a partial buyout, but he showed us how to check the prices he was offering and even encouraged us to go with eBay for even more money, if we had the time, on a couple of pieces -- which he showed us were worth a lot more than we thought. So honest! Dennis has deep knowledge of bikes, fountain pens and other collectibles (which we happened also to collect), and he was realistic and fair in his appraisal of the best way to move our overflowing possessions 'down the road.' We will follow his advice on selling our goods through some easy channels and an estate sale company, and then, when it's less of a mountain of deferred decisions, use Dennis for the final clearout. What a great guy. Highly recommended!

I'm kind of an estate sale junkie and J&C runs a sale the way I like it run. We recently…read morerecommended J&C to a close friend to handle the sale/liquidation of their Uncle's home. They made the process easy and the majority of the contents were sold, it was a HUGE help in getting the place prepped for getting it on the market. As a shopper, they do not over stage the sales. We don't like sales that feel like you are in an antique/thrift store with everything laid out on tables and over priced. The more you bundle, the better the deals. Their crew is always helpful, friendly and they follow current safety guidelines well.

The gal confirmed I had contacted the right number. I asked about scheduling an appointment. We went over the available dates and a brief discussion of what to expect. I felt as though I had to ask a majority of the questions. Information was being pulled out of this gal. I have no idea how an Estate Sale works and wanted to get as much information as I could before proceeding with wasting anyone's time and scheduling a meet up. Before ending the phone call, she hadn't asked for my name, number or email. I asked if she would send me a follow up email with the appointment confirmation & she then said "oh yes, can I have you email?" I gave her my information and we got off the phone. I never received any email confirmation or call back. I emailed the day before to confirm and still do this day (a few days later) have not heard a response back. Very unprofessional.

This review is long overdue, but I honestly don't know how I would have navigated my brother's estate without them. ​Kim is incredible to work with. She brought so much compassion to a tough situation, but she is also a total professional who knows how to get things done. She helped organize a clear plan for everything, including the junk haul and moving logistics. We opted not to do an estate sale, but it is nice to know it's a service they offer. The efficiency and speed at which the team was able to get the house cleared out really helped so we could start renovations before selling it. They truly lighten the load when you need it most, and at a reasonable rate. I cannot recommend them enough!

As a Realtor with more than 36 years of experience, I've worked with many estate sale companies…read moreover the years, and to be honest, my experiences have often been less than impressive. Then I met Pete Banchieri from Alameda Estate Sales, and he completely changed my perspective. Pete took on one of the most challenging estate sales I've ever encountered. The home had been owned by the same family for more than 40 years, and it was filled with decades' worth of belongings. What impressed me most was Pete's incredible work ethic and attention to detail. He spent weeks carefully sorting valuables​, donations, ​selling certain things online, arranging for appropriate items to be auctioned, and researching historical documents and collectibles, organizing the contents, and thoughtfully preparing everything for the sale.​ Because I had the opportunity to visit the property several times throughout the process, I was able to see firsthand the amount of work, care, and professionalism Pete and his team brought to the job. I was genuinely blown away by the transformation and the level of effort they invested. Pete and his crew did an outstanding job from start to finish. They exceeded every expectation and completely changed my previous apprehension about the estate sale industry. I highly recommend Pete and Alameda Estate Sales, and I will absolutely be using them for all of my future estate sale needs.

I went to the estate sale on Glen Dr in San Leandro last week. It would have given them a five star but as I was checking out, I noticed someone at the tables on the opposite side of me, looking at two loppers. I mentioned that I didn't notice the loppers earlier to the cashier (who was super sweet). She turned around to look at the loppers, then asked her colleague, who was stationed at the jewelry, if the loppers were on hold for someone. Instead of hearing what she was saying, he thought it was appropriate to get angry at the customer who was looking at them. He was so angry that he must have forgotten how to be a human, because basically just yelled at the customer, saying "No!" and huffed as he furiously waved to where I was standing, indicating that the customer should be on the side where I was standing. Did he think the customer couldn't speak English? Is that why he stopped using his words and just waved his hands? From a customers perspective, this was wildly off putting. Even my partner and his mom and the lady who checked me out were shocked.

The owner was friendly, and his sweet dog Gracie, a border collie and pug mix, was hanging out in the store with him.

We arrived at 1:30 only to find out that they had closed the store!! Are you freaking kidding me?! I guess these people really don't want my money.
