Status Update: November 2022

As we have throughout the pandemic, Waddington’s adheres to government-mandated and recommended guidelines and focuses on the best solutions to protect our staff and community. 
We sincerely hope that you and those around you are and remain well. We know we are privileged to have you as a client and we continue to work hard to deliver the highest level of service.

While most of our staff are working onsite, we continue to support work from home and alternative work schedules.

PREVIEWS

We are pleased to invite clients to our auction previews.

Mandatory mask wearing is no longer required in Ontario, but we support and encourage anyone who feels more comfortable wearing a mask while visiting Waddington’s. You will find many of our staff are continuing to wear masks as well.

Our specialists are also pleased to continue connecting with you over the phone, via email or video.

Pick ups & Drop Offs continue on an appointment basis

We are pleased to provide safe options for you to pick up purchased items, as well as dropping off consignments, Mondays through Fridays.

Courier and Shipper Pick Up

We continue to work with shippers and couriers for pick up of purchased items.
