Number of units auctioned can prove to be less than whats reflected on the schedule for two reasons which are both beyond the control of Universal Auctions and the people working at the storage facilities:

1. People pay the past due balance on their unit right at closing time the night before or even just prior to the auction itself.

2. The legally required process to auction a unit is a complex and tedious procedure requiring paperwork, deadlines that have to be met, publishing notices and mailing notifications. Any number of things can go wrong, even a simple "typo" in paperwork can derail the legal auction of a unit.

If you have any doubts at all that the process which Arizona Law requires be followed to auction a Storage Unit is....shall we say....."involved"......look at the relevant Arizona Statutes by clicking on the next picture.

I do everything possible to accurately represent #'s of units that will be sold at each location. Events which I have no control over can lead to less units being sold.

As mentioned above and reiterated here because its important that auction attendees understand how the schedule works:

To sell a delinquent storage unit the law also requires that a start time to the sale must be declared.

The first auction on a given day begins at the time shown or shortly thereafter. When that location is done the auction team moves on to the next location and so on until all of that day's auctions are completed.

Its impossible to know exact start times after the first location due to travel time and time required to do the previous auctions.

Actual start times at each location will allow bidders, if they desire, to "follow" from one auction site to the next.

This is usually what people do so that they can have the largest selection of units to bid on.

Beyond that first start time the listed times are there because the law requires a start time be declared .

Our Storage Auctions are like a "traveling" or mobile auction...one storage facility to the next, until they are all done.
