It's very possible, and there are a lot of people doing it. It may be a little harder to get started right now because of all the excitement of the reality shows, but still possible. Just keep in mind, it is a lot of work and to make a decent living at it, you have to work it like a job. You need to be willing to clean out your units as soon as possible after the auctions, and you need to go through it all and get it up for sale instead of just sitting on it. You'll have to interact with customers and have to make yourself available to meet at times that are convenient to them, which means 5:00 - 8:00 PM a lot of times! And, you need to move a lot of stuff, the whole key to making it work for me is volume. Your area may be slightly different. But the key thing anyone that wants to do this should remember: THIS IS A LOT OF WORK! My advice to anybody that wants to do it is buy a half dozen or so units and try it before you quit your job or go buy a truck and trailer. If you don't like it, you won't last. I've had a number of friends do this with me off and on over the last few years. Even my best friend of 30 plus years bailed on me. Even though he was making some decent money at it, he told me "I don't want to work that hard"! It's not for everybody, but yes, if you work it, you can make a living.
