A thoughtful approach.

Creating personalized moving plans

We build customized senior downsizing services and moving plans tailored to individual needs, including packing strategies, timelines, transportation logistics, and special requirements for fragile or valuable items and heirlooms.

Helping to sort and organize belongings

Part of our well-honed process is to categorize items into "keep", "donate", "sell", or "discard", creating an inventory list, and providing storage solutions to maximize space.

Photographing and inventorying contents

We carefully photograph and catalog the contents of each room, documenting item conditions, capturing details including brand and model number. The result is a comprehensive inventory list for insurance and organizational purposes.

Coordinating appraisers, movers, and other professionals

We arrange for appraisers to assess the value of belongings, schedule professional movers for a seamless transition, hire tradesmen for repairs or renovations, and integrate services from interior designers and packing specialists to ensure a smooth and efficient process. 

Packing, labeling, and managing shipping and storage

Experience: For 20 years, we've handled all kinds of situations and complications. Frugal: our team is small and hands on, efficient and experienced. Taste: Many team members have  fine arts backgrounds that give us an advantage in assessing how to handle sophisticated (high net worth) estates, as well as preserving value for less complicated estates.

We strive to honor and value all participants and develop outcomes to ensure mutual satisfaction.

Once that is confirmed, we begin slowly, focused on immediate needs, challenges and questions. From there, we develop a plan, and add services and resources as needed. 

 Each client has individual goals and needs. We tailor our schedule to the needs of our clients. Our projects typically last from a few days, to several months.

We do adhere to a practice of fiduciary responsibility to protect the interests of our clients by keeping detailed records. We are well versed in identifying value, but leave the exact appraisals, consignments and sales to those specialized services. We also interface and assist realtors, estate agents and estate managers.
