You may have spent a lifetime accumulating personal property assets, including antiques, collectables, general household items and a lot of other possessions. Even if you have a son or a daughter to help you, it can be difficult and overwhelming to figure out what to keep (and not to keep) when you transition to a new, smaller home.

Let us help you get organized.

  • Develop a transition plan with key dates and deadlines
  • Draw a customized floor plan for your new home and help plan the new space
  • Design your new interiors so they are both attractive and familiar
  • Cherry-pick favorite furniture, lighting, art, and accessories to keep
  • Select colors, materials, finishes, and fabrics
  • Arrange for old furniture to be reupholstered

Downsize or Declutter

  • Identify what goes where, organize items and spaces
  • Arrange for distribution of unwanted items through auction, estate-sale, buy-out, consignment, donation, or a combination of the above

Move with confidence

  • Interview, review estimates, and schedule moving company
  • Supervise and direct movers on moving day at both ends of move
  • Assist in filing change-of-address forms, cancelling your old utilities, and setting up your new ones

Clean up and clear out

  • Make sure all donations are delivered, recyclable materials properly recycled, compostable material composted, and all household hazardous material properly taken care of

Our goal is to find “new homes” for all your unwanted items and have as little as possible end up in landfill.
