Our family’s auction journey began in 2016. After retiring from a federal career in law enforcement, Charlie Doerge “C4” decided to try something different and enrolled in auctioneer school. Upon graduation, he decided to start an auction business as his new adventure in life. “C4” has a life rule of “Go big or go home”. So as a family, we all gathered our thoughts, ideas, and evaluated our strengths and weaknesses to determine how we could truly make an outstanding auction company. And many will testify that’s exactly what happened! In May of 2017, we opened our auction business and held our first official auction at our location, 6245 County Road 532 in Jackson, MO. Our auctions are the first Saturday of every month at 6pm.
In early 2022, Michelle Doerge decided to attend Missouri Auction School to become an auctioneer as well. Then in May 2022, she officially purchased the business. Most Wanted Auctions & Sales remains a family-based business with Big Charlie still as our active & lead auctioneer. Dreams certainly can come true when you are willing to work hard, and that’s exactly what this transition symbolized.
Auction nights at Most Wanted are an exciting experience! Every month, we rotate food trucks to bring you a different dinner option. We also have The Pie Safe set up in our kitchen with their amazing desserts. There’s something to be said for being in a clean environment, surrounded by great people, with good food, and a night filled with lots of laughs and smiles! And let’s not forget about all the amazing items up for auction! Items you’ll typically see up for grabs include new merchandise directly from large retailers. We also like to include some antiques, tools, furniture, fine arts, and unique pieces into the mix as well. Auctions are all about a treasure hunt of stuff you like/want/need. Then add in some fun bidding competition to see who is going to take it home into the mix and it’s definitely a night to remember!
When you attend our auctions, you truly do become part of the Most Wanted family!
