100’s Of People Are Talking About Us!
Another great move to Delmanor Glen Abbey! “Thank you Mary and Downsizing Solutions for moving us to our new suite. I really liked your tagging system to identify what items we were moving and/or donating. I was really worried about moving big mirrors and a grandfather clock but you wrapped it and padded it for the travel with great care. It was a big help that we did not have to empty out our dressers. Thank you for removing all the donations as well. When we walked into our new suite and saw our belongings, it was exactly how we envisioned it. We are very impressed. Thank you.” ~ Georgette and Roger | Delmanor Glen Abbey
We love repeat clients! “This is the third successful move we have had with Downsizing Solutions. The move went quickly despite the smallest elevator ever. Because of the size of the elevator, your movers had to take the bed and mattress and boxspring up the stairs of the apartment building. I was concerned about how much I was taking and the team made sure that it was all unpacked and taken care of. The team kept me calm and organized. It was an emotional move and I was so pleased and happy with the compassion shown by Mary, Jennifer and the movers. I give them “flying colours”! ~ Catherine M.
A great move to Venvi Birkdale Place!
“A big thank you to Birkdale for recommending Downsizing Solutions. We liked the idea that the team comes in packs, moves and unpacks! We don’t think it could have gone any smoother. The team was very professional, quiet and pleasant. We are so happy with how the suite turned out for my Mom. The whole process went very smoothly! We would definitely recommend Downsizing Solutions!” ~ Annie | Venvi Birkdale Place
Another great downsize/move to VIVA Oakville Retirement Community!
“The move was perfect. Everyone was so helpful and so professional and nice to work with. The team seemed to really flow and fit and they helped each other well. The packaging was done well and nothing was damaged or broken. The set up is perfect and I love it. You couldn't ask for anything better. I would say, ‘If you have a move, I would recommend Mary's team for packing, moving and downsizing’.” ~ Sonia S. | VIVA Oakville Retirement Community
Another smooth move into one of our favourite retirement homes, Lasalle Park Retirement Community.
"I have moved five to ten times in my life and never have I been moved with such professionalism. I was shocked when I came into my new home and saw how well it was all laid out. It was incredible how they did it. I couldn't believe how fast they did it! They packed me up the day before and moved me and set me up all in one day! Everything is in its place even with the pictures hung. Nothing was broken. Everything was moved with love and care and I felt that. I had the most pleasant experience working with Mary. I wish the team had stayed longer. In a 10/10, I would definitely say it was a 12/10. I have already recommended you to friends." ~Rodney | Lasalle Park Retirement Community
A nice little internal move at LaSalle Park Retirement Community recently.
“If you need to do a move, Mary is your person. Her team at Downsizing Solutions is fabulous from start to finish. Hire them and you will have peace of mind.”.
~ Craig Fraser | Lasalle Park Retirement
Great organization/decluttering of a repeat client’s home.
“I can't believe we did all this, with my birthday and Thanksgiving, in the middle. It looked so crowded and now it looks very nice. This is what I wanted. The team were all very nice and fast. They got the job done quickly. The movers helped get everything out and I couldn't believe how quickly we got everything done. I like the way it looks now, it is so much better. I'm glad it went well. Before it felt like everything was caving in on me and, now, it looks so nice and I feel like I can breathe again.” ~ Sandy R.
We love repeat clients!
“Once again, Downsizing Solutions exceeded our expectations. After moving me from my house to Appleby Place Retirement Residence last year, they have now moved me to another suite in the building. The team coordinated a seamless move and everything was placed with care in the right place. When I walked into my new suite, it felt like home. Thanks so much!”. ~ Margaret M and family | Appleby Place Retirement Residence
Another great move to Heritage Place Retirement! “When my mom decided she really wanted to use a moving service, we remembered Downsizing Solutions had moved my Aunt. We reached out to our family and they highly recommended them. Heritage Place was thrilled to hear we had chosen the Downsizing Solutions team! On the day of the move, the team was so wonderful. They were polite, courteous and so very patient! I wanted things a certain way and they obliged! The unpack was great and so helpful! We will definitely recommend Downsizing Solutions again!” ~Melanie | Heritage Place Retirement
Usually Sean Hartley refers us to his clients but, yesterday, we did a move for him personally!
“We have moved so many times, we knew we couldn’t do it ourselves this time so we called Downsizing Solutions. We had the best experience with the team! The crew was so nice! They were very skilled at moving furniture and took great care. A very positive and fun team to work with!”. ~ Sean and Anna Maria Hartley
Thank you to Amica Bronte Harbour for this referral! “Thank you Downsizing Solutions for coming to my home and packing me up for my move. It went very well. My sister and I were talking about how great it was that the downsizer went over to look at my new suite before tagging my furniture to be moved. They brought the right amount of furniture for my suite. This was very important to me. I was worried about the move and, when I saw my new suite, I was amazed. The furniture was placed in the perfect spots and even the pictures were hung better than I expected. Thank you so much.” ~Tom | Amica Bronte Harbour
Another great move into Chartwell Lakeshore Retirement Residence!
"The fact that Downsizing Solutions took full control of every part of the move, from packing, donating, selling, getting rid of unwanted items, delivery and full set up, was a complete Godsend. This eliminated stress on the family, as everything was fully taken care of - a complete one-stop-shop. The staff were pleasant and amazing to work with, including packers, movers and set up.
Mary was highly responsive to all contacts. The place was left in excellent condition, as expected, and the move to Chartwell was fabulous. It was spotless and 100% set up as requested. We didn't have to lift a finger. Everything was well taken care of. It was an amazing experience. I highly recommend the service and it also came recommended to us, on a top list, from Chartwell."
~ Brenda C. | Chartwell Lakeshore Retirement Residence
We love packing people up for their moves!
“We have used Mary and her team at Downsizing Solutions before so I knew who to call! I was very happy with the efficient scheduling. When Lee-Anne arrived, she took the bull by the horns and got everything done! I am moving in a few days and without her help, I would not have been ready. She was a super woman and saved me!” ~Deborah
We love happy clients! “I heard about Downsizing Solutions from a good friend and reached out to Mary. The first day a team member came out and organized and packed all of my donations. Then the second day another team member came and packed my items for my move. The ladies were amazing . It was obvious they love their job!! On move day, everyone worked quickly and efficiently. I am thrilled with my new home!! The team even took time to hang all my pictures exactly where I wanted them!! I could not be happier!” ~ Joan | Heritage Place
Another great move to The Williamsburg Retirement Residence!
“Thank you to Amanda from the Williamsburg for recommending Downsizing Solutions, and also to Mary for organizing and to be “ready to go” on short notice. Catherine was amazing, packing up and setting up the suite. She was very quick and efficient. My suite looked great and very ‘homie” and my pictures all set up and hung. Thank you.” ~ Gail | The Williamsburg Retirement Residence
tWe love this sweet couple.
"We were so pleased with our move to Chartwell Lakeshore. You all did such a good job. We were very pleased and liked the team. You all are such good workers and so helpful. Your movers picked up furniture for us that didn't get delivered. You are all so pleasant and easy to deal with. You made some very good recommendations! You prepped our home for sale, moved us and then dealt with the house clear out. We loved that you took furniture for donations. We wanted people who needed it to have the stuff. You team is very nice and efficient.
We love it here at Chartwell Lakeshore. There is always something going on. The food is also very good. We would definitely recommend Downsizing Solutions! Their personalities are great! We were really nervous and the team put us at ease and we are believers !!
~ Margaret and Malcolm A. | Chartwell Lakeshore
Another fun move into VIVA Meadowlands!
“In May, I attended a workshop at VIVA Meadowlands where Mary Dilly (Downsizing Solutions) did a nice presentation and there was a nice luncheon. I’m glad that I attended that day. My brother and sister-in-law also visited VIVA Meadowlands and learned that they were offering an move-in incentive program. (VIVA paid for my move!!) I was given a move date and when I called Mary she made all the arrangements. Everything was on schedule, the moving team was really good and the downsizing/organization was excellent. On what could have been a very stressful day, I was not stressed at all. I like my suite very much. Thank you Downsizing Solutions!”
~ Lena D. | VIVA Retirement Communities
We LOVE moving people into The Williamsburg Retirement Residence!!! “We needed this move done in five days. Mary got it done! Communication with Mary was great. We so appreciate Amanda Ilines for recommending Downsizing Solutuons! On the day of the move, the team showed up on time. They were quick, efficient and very professional. Thank you for also bringing all the items from the respite suite to the new suite. It was very much appreciated. The food, staff and residents at The Williamsburg are fantastic. My dad loves his new suite and it feels just like home.” ~ Chris D. | The Williamsburg Retirement Residence | Cogir Senior Living Canada
My team, apparently, has too much fun working with our clients! “Thank you to VIVA Retirement Communities for recommending Downsizing Solutions to help with my move. Jennifer and Lee-Anne were fantastic!! They really work well together. When they came to pack me up, they were pleasant, easy and fun to work with. On move day they worked extremely hard to set my suite up perfectly!! I kept encouraging them to take breaks but they wouldn’t. They worked so hard. The movers were so great too. They even hung my tv for me and got it working! What a fabulous team! I give them 100%!” ~ Bev S | Viva Retirement Communities
Why wouldn't anyone want to move to VIVA Oakville Retirement Community when, under their incentive bonus, they pay for the move!!
"I’m very happy for the job the Downsizing Solutions team did. We were just talking about how quick and professional the moving team was and how very patient and calm Sheila was. The suite looks very, very nice. I am counting the days to the move, now I know the suite is ready when I am. Viva Oakville staff were also very helpful and friendly."
~ Frida A | VIVA Retirement Communities | VIVA Oakville Retirement Community
I love helping out my friends in the retirement living field! “Thank you to Mary and her team for this very special move. Mary was able to mobilize her team at the last minute to move items from one long-term care home that is closing for rebuild to Eatonville so that our dear residents will be able to continue loving these items. Nothing was too much for these gentlemen. We even got a pool table in place. Which will surely be a hit for our residents in our auditorium space. Thank you so much for making this dream come true.” ~ Janette W.
Thanks LaSalle Park Retirement Community for the referral for this internal move!
“The move was so simple… from one text message it was all arranged and done… so simple!
Mary assessed the internal move and provided an estimate within 24 hours… no fuss no muss. Because Mary knows LaSalle Park, she precoordinated the arrangements for ease of move.The layout is great, we are happy to have a spot for the desk for my dad. I feel the anxiety has gone! Dad is so happy in his new digs.” ~ Mike (son)
“The suite is very comfortable with a great view. I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else, everything is available right here!” ~ Heinz (dad)
"We recently sold our home and moved to the Pearl and Pine Retirement Residence.
Mary Dilly and her company, Downsizing Solutions, were recommended by a number of people! They were fantastic. Mary and her team were responsive, prompt and very professional. I would not hesitate to strongly recommend them."
~Terry and Margo | Pearl and Pine Retirement Residence
Another great downsize with hundreds of brand new items to donate to people in need!
