About Us

 

Chadwell Auction Service, LLC is a full-service auction company proudly owned and operated by Shawn and Shelly Chadwell of Norwood, Missouri. We conduct auctions of all types and sizes, specializing in Real Estate, Estate, Antique, Farm, and Business Liquidation Auctions. In addition to traditional live auctions, we also offer online and webcast auction services to maximize exposure and results for our clients.

We take great pride in the strong reputation we have built through honesty, integrity, and our commitment to treating both buyers and sellers with professionalism and respect. We understand that many auctions represent a lifetime of hard work, cherished collectibles, and personal memories, and we are honored to guide our clients through that process with care and attention to detail.

Our services include, but are not limited to, full set ups, set out crews, wireless computerized sales management (registration, cashiering and clerking), guaranteed balancing, same day settlement in the form of one check to our clients, and our own food service.   We accept most major credit cards and debit cards for our bidders convenience, with a 3% additional fee.

We run a completely computerized office, including wireless registration, clerking and cashiering.  Our clerks are extremely accurate and take pride in the jobs they do.  Settlement includes many detailed reports of your auction including an itemized list of items sold, all expenses can be pro-rated if we are selling any guest consignments, with each consignor receiving their individual reports and detailed expense summary.

Chadwell Auction Service is excited to announce that we now have a dedicated Auction Lot and Building to better serve our buyers and sellers. This new location allows us to host both online and in-person auctions for those who prefer not to hold an auction at their own property.

Whether you’re downsizing, liquidating an estate, selling equipment, or simply have items you want to move quickly—our Auction Lot provides a convenient, organized, and professional setting. Simply bring your items to us, and our team will handle the rest.

What We Offer at the Lot and Building:

  • Secure, organized auction lot for equipment, tools, vehicles, farm items, household goods & more
  • Climate-controlled auction building for smaller items, antiques, collectibles, and specialty pieces
  • Online and live bidding options to reach the largest audience possible
  • No crowds or traffic on your property
  • Clean drop-off appointments and simple consignor process
  • Professional photos, cataloging, and full advertising included

If you are thinking auction, please give us a call for more information.  We will go over every detail with you including commission, approximate advertising expense, best time and day of the week for your auction and any other concerns you might have regarding your decision to have an auction.  All of these services are done at no charge and without commitment on your part.

We are happy, upon request, to supply a large list of impressive references from past clients, as most of our business comes from referrals of satisfied clients.

Our goal is to make the auction process easy, stress-free, and profitable—no matter the size of your consignment.

Thinking about an auction? We would welcome the opportunity to visit with you and put our experience to work on your behalf.
