Pre-register to bid

Please don’t leave it until the last minute

Registration opens at 7.00pm on the Thursday before each auction and closes at 12 noon on auction day.

Without an approved check in place by the deadline, you will not be able to bid or buy at the auction.

We recommend completing your check as early as possible to make sure everything is in place.

If you have any issues completing the check, or are unable to do this online, please don’t worry – contact Director Sam Turner on 01579 345543 or email sam.turner@kivells.com who will be happy to help.
