    Depends on why it goes on auction. For example, if it's a foreclosure, then no. You will have an opportunity to vacate and move your things out.

    The sheriffs will evict you at some point (before or after the auction) and put your stuff out on the street, then its YOUR problem to get it in storage or to a new residence..

    So best to find a place and move it yourself before the vultures have a chance to decend on the day of the eviction. But you will know in advance when that will be specifically.

Also my husband walked out on me on Jan 7th...
