Rivanna Auction Co. is a locally owned online auction business helping individuals and families sell quality belongings and collections through simple, local auctions.

We focus on clear communication, realistic expectations, and a straightforward process from intake through local pickup. All auctions are conducted online, with items picked up locally after the sale.

Questions welcome. Photos are helpful but not required.

How It Works

  1. Reach Out
    Email us about what you’d like to sell. Photos are helpful but not required.
  2. Review & Intake
    We confirm fit, review consignment terms, and schedule item drop-off.
  3. Online Auction & Local Pickup
    Items are sold through an online auction. Buyers pick up locally, and consignors are paid after pickup.

When We’re the Right Option

Rivanna Auction Co. is a good option for individuals and families who want a simpler alternative to selling items themselves online, but aren’t ready for a full estate liquidation. We often work with people who don’t want to manage eBay listings or Facebook Marketplace, as well as families helping older relatives begin the downsizing process.

Our approach is intentionally measured and local, bridging the gap between do-it-yourself selling and large estate auctions.

We’re well-suited for consignments that include:

  • Small antiques and collectibles
  • Mid-century modern items
  • Hobby and specialty collections
  • Quality decorative and household items

We focus on manageable consignments and do not currently offer full estate cleanouts.

Online auctions launching soon. Currently accepting consignments.

Based in Palmyra, Virginia, and serving Fluvanna County and surrounding areas.
