How we are adapting the Online Auctions to avoid COVID-19

The Government of Ontario required the closure of Non-essential services Workplaces. In response to that announcement we would like to stress "Workplace". Estate Sales Niagara does not have a storefront open to the public. Services such as online shopping have not been affected by this list of closures. 

 "Note that teleworking and online commerce are permitted at all times for all businesses"
