4. The Seller is free to set bids at any amount they wish. It is iBidOnStorage’s suggestion that starting prices be set lower to encourage competitive bidding and a higher selling price.

Enter all necessary fields, marked with a red asterisk.

5.  Sellers may set start/end dates whenever they please, however the following tips are recommended:

• The first time a Seller loads a unit, iBidOnStorage recommends running the auction for 7-10 days.  After a couple auction uploads, setting an auctions start and end time in between 3-5 days, is enough to have a locker sold and cleared out, and available for rent once more.
• Remember to NOT set an end date on statutory holidays, or when the facility is closed.  
• A preview stage of one 1-2 weeks compliments legal advertising and encourages tenants to pay their arrears.

6.  Sellers may set start/end times whenever they please, though it is best leave 2-3 hours before the facility closes, should the winning bidder wish to call the facility immediately.

• Should multiple units close on the same day, it is suggested the Seller select end times for each unit approximiatly 10 mins apart. This ensures all bidders have a fair chance of entering their final bids.
• (EXAMPLE: Unit 1 ends at 2:00 p.m. , Unit 2 ends at 2:10 p.m. , Unit 3 ends at 2:20 p.m. etc.)

7.  Additional Features is where Sellers may include any additional information they feel the bidder should know about the unit. (eg. the unit is heated, climate controlled, drive-up unit, etc.)

8.  If the unit does not have any obvious valuables, it is recommended that the Seller provide a description of the unseen valuables, if possible. If the unit contains boxes, garbage bags and/or totes, simply list as “Household Items”.

10. By checking this box, the Seller will receive an email each time a bid has been placed on a specific unit. Alternatively, if the Seller does not wish to be updated, the Seller can watch ALL the bidding take place live, on iBidOnStorage.com.au
