Dale Myers Antiques LLC Estate Sales has operated out of the same rural stretch of Wyoming County since 1965, run under the ownership of Dale K. Myers from a location along State Route 29 South near Forkston and the Noxen postal area in the mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania. Six decades of continuous operation under one family’s ownership is unusual in the antiques trade, where shops more commonly change hands, close, and reopen under new management every decade or two, and that long tenure has let the business build the kind of local reputation and standing buyer relationships that only come from staying in one place for a very long time.
The business runs on two related tracks that together define its role in the region. As an antiques dealer, it maintains its own inventory drawn from decades of buying, trading, and sourcing pieces across northeastern Pennsylvania. As an estate sale service, it also works directly with families across Wyoming County and the surrounding Endless Mountains region to liquidate the contents of a home, a process that typically covers everything from furniture and glassware to tools, collectibles, and smaller household items that accumulate in a property over a lifetime. That estate sale side of the business tends to be a practical resource for families dealing with the aftermath of a death in the family, a move into assisted living, or a downsizing after decades in a farmhouse, since sorting and pricing an entire household’s worth of belongings is not a task most families want to take on themselves.
Forkston Township and the surrounding Noxen area sit in a sparsely populated corner of Wyoming County, closer in feel to the Pennsylvania Endless Mountains and the northern tier than to any of the state’s larger cities, and that rural setting has shaped the kind of inventory a business like this tends to encounter. Old farmhouses, hunting camps, and multi-generation family homesteads in this part of the state often hold onto furniture, tools, and household goods for far longer than urban or suburban properties do, giving a long-established local dealer like Dale Myers Antiques a naturally deep and varied source of material to work with over the decades.
Because the business operates from a rural route address rather than a downtown storefront, visitors and sellers alike are best served by calling ahead at 570-836-1582 to confirm current hours, discuss an estate sale inquiry, or ask what categories of antiques are currently available, since a business built on estate work and long-term local relationships does not necessarily keep the kind of fixed daily retail hours that a mall storefront would. That direct approach also tends to suit the kind of buyers this business attracts, collectors and pickers who already know the area and are looking for a specific type of find rather than casual browsers.
In short, Dale Myers Antiques LLC Estate Sales is a family-owned antiques dealer and estate sale service that has served Wyoming County and the surrounding Endless Mountains region of northeastern Pennsylvania continuously since 1965, combining decades of local buying relationships with hands-on estate liquidation work for families throughout the area.
