Emporia Storage Auction Entices Treasure Hunters on October 18
EMPORIA, VA -- What's behind that storage unit door? What hidden gems could be on the other side? The treasure hunt is on as a storage unit auction is scheduled at Emporia Storage on Saturday, October 18, 2025 at 10 a.m.
"The popularity of hit TV shows like 'Storage Wars' really heightened interest in storage unit auctions. There's such mystery. You never know what you're going to find," said auctioneer Carla Harris.
During this sale, the belongings of delinquent storage units are auctioned to the highest bidder to recoup the loss of rental fees.
"Anything could be in a unit. Quite a few will be auctioned, so if you've ever been curious to check out a storage auction and see what happens, this is your chance. We have people come from all over Southside Virginia and even other states to check out what's inside," said Boyce Adams, owner of Emporia Storage.
The auction will begin at Emporia Storage office headquarters at 315 West Atlantic Street, Emporia, VA 23847, then move to the units at 623 South Main Street across from 7-11 and finish up at its third location on East Atlantic Street.
"Storage auctions are a great way to buy secondhand merchandise at a bargain. If you're a collector, someone who buys and sells, or simply a treasure hunter, you'll find the Emporia Storage auction could be a great experience for you," Harris said.
Multiple units will be auctioned during this cash-only sale. The exact number of units will not be available until the day before the auction. Gates open at 9 a.m. for registration, which is free. The auction begins at 10 a.m. Bidders will be given a few minutes to look at the units once they are opened.
