FENCELINEFarm Estate Services

One estate. One place to start.

A lifetime on the farmleaves a lot behind.

Fenceline Farm Estate Services helps families handle what comes next, from equipment and barn contents to property cleanup, auctions and farmland sales.

What We Do

Every farm estate is different.

Some families need help with an entire farm estate. Others simply need equipment sold, a barn cleaned out, property purchased or farmland sold. Whatever the situation, you can start with Fenceline.

Clean It Out

Farm & Barn Cleanouts

We'll help clear the property

Barns, sheds, equipment, scrap and decades of accumulated property can be overwhelming. We can help sort through it, remove what needs to go and leave the property ready for what's next.

Our Promise

One estate.One place to start.

Settling a farm estate rarely involves just one thing. There may be farmland to sell, machinery to value, buildings to empty, scrap to remove and generations of belongings to sort through.

You don't need to know which service you need before you contact us.

Tell us about the estate and what your family hopes to accomplish. We'll help determine the right combination of solutions.

  • Start with the situation

    Not with a predetermined sales method. We listen first, then help you find what fits.

  • No need to sell through us

    You don't have to sell the property or equipment through us to use our cleanout services.

  • Respect for what was built

    A lifetime of work is on that property. We treat it, and the family's story, with care.

How It Can Fit Together

The right solution isn't always the same.

Every family comes to this with a different goal. Pick the one that sounds most like yours.

Keep the farm?

We can help with equipment and cleanout while the land stays in the family.

About Fenceline

Farm people helpingfarm families.

Fenceline grew from our family's interest in old farm equipment and the stories attached to it. We've seen firsthand how a lifetime of tractors, machinery, tools and belongings can become an enormous responsibility when a farm changes generations.

Farm Estate Services gives families one place to start.

Whether the solution is purchasing an estate, cleaning out a property, conducting an auction, selling farmland or combining several services, our goal is to make the process understandable and manageable.
