Who We Are. What We Do.
At Wellers Auctions, based in Guildford, Surrey in the heart of the Home Counties, we pride ourselves on being one of the UK’s most versatile and dynamic auction houses. With over 150 years of expertise behind us, our focus today is on delivering a modern auction experience that serves both private individuals and corporate clients alike.
Our Departments
Our business spans multiple departments, each offering something unique:
RETAIL
Selling everything from customer returns and end-of-line stock to undelivered parcels and unclaimed property.
AGRICULTURAL
Trusted by farmers and rural communities to sell machinery, vehicles, tools, and livestock equipment at our seasonal sales.
ARCHITECTURAL
The UK’s leading auction house renowned for handling large-scale architectural salvage, period features, and one-off specialist collections across the country.
ANTIQUES & COLLECTABLES
Connecting buyers with fine jewellery, art, one-off memorabilia, and timeless pieces full of character and history.
What unites these departments is our core ethos: the ability to sell anything, anywhere, anytime. Whether it’s a single item, a specialist collection, or thousands of lots, we bring expertise, transparency, and energy to every sale.
We’re more than just an auction house. We’re a team of skilled auctioneers and specialists who thrive on building lasting relationships with our clients and customers. Our approach blends traditional auctioneering with cutting-edge technology, and our bidding platform is powered by Easy Live Auction, giving buyers and sellers a seamless experience. In addition, selected auctions are also promoted across The Saleroom, iBidder, and BidSpotter, ensuring every lot reaches the widest possible audience, both in the UK and globally.
At Wellers, we believe auctions should be exciting, accessible, and rewarding for everyone involved. That’s why we continue to innovate while staying true to the values of trust, integrity, and professionalism that have defined us for generations.
