100’s Of People Are Talking About Us!

Another great move to Atria Burlington Gardens! 
"Thank you Mary and Downsizing Solutions. This move was unbelievable. We could not have asked for a smoother move. The team was very professional and wonderful to work with. Everyone took extra care of wrapping the furniture, figurines and jewellery. The move went very quickly. Everything mom wanted is here and it even looks better than we imagined. This is home. Thank you!”
~ Kathy and Wendy | Atria Burlington Gardens

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

Another great move to VIVA Oakville Retirement Community. We love this woman so much, I have already been back to have lunch with her. “The move was so smooth. I didn’t have to unpack so much as a sock. The team hung the pictures exactly where I wanted them. Everyone did such a good job. It was a big move for me but I felt very comfortable with you. The whole thing was fantastic. I didn’t have to do anything. You worked so hard! You cleared out the house, took items to storage and donation and you also took a number of big items to my son’s home. That made me feel so happy about donating items to refugees. The whole team was amazing. The movers were so tall and so nice. From my first meeting with Mary to the move into VIVA, it was a very positive experience. The fact that VIVA paid for the move made it even better!” ~ Melanie S. | VIVA Oakville Retirement
Thanks team for a great internal move at Atria Burlington Gardens! “I was referred to Downsizing Solutions through Priya from Burlington Gardens. I could not be happier. From the pack up to the move to the set up and unpack, everything was as smooth as glass! The team has a great system in place and it shows. They are friendly, communicative and made me feel comfortable. Well done!”

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 great move to Martindale Gardens Retirement Residence
“A past client of Mary's recommended her team for my mother's move. I looked at her website and it was top notch. The move was stress free. The team came in and marked all the furniture that would be coming to the new suite. On move day, we got to leave and enjoy the day. The team recommended things to bring that we didn't think of bringing. That was helpful. I love the attention to detail! The furniture was set up like the old condo so, when we walked in, it was like walking into my mother’s former condo. They have a real knack for hanging pictures in the perfect spots.
I am so impressed with this move. Thank you to Mary’s movers who built the kitchen table and chairs and also hung the TV. Much appreciated. Thank you.” ~ Karen | Martindale Gardens Retirement Residence

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

We LOVE this man! Thanks to The Williamsburg Retirement Residence for the referral!
“I found Mary at Downsizing Solutions to be extremely efficient and knowledgeable. The team was helpful to decide what to take and what to donate. I found my stress decreased considerably because they knew exactly what they were doing and they took full control of the whole situation. I just went out to relax and have a bite to eat.
They carefully packed items for 3 different locations: for my move to the Williamsburg, for my son in North Carolina and also my other son in Oakville. They organized that very well. My son in the USA wanted additional items to go with the shipment, which they were able to facilitate, readily. They also helped remove remaining donations and items for disposal which were all fully taken care of. My furniture and items for the Williamsburg were taken directly to my room while I was downstairs in the entertainment area at the Remembrance Day celebrations. I was meeting new friends while they unpacked and organized my entire move-in. When I came upstairs, I was pleasantly surprised at how well everything was done and I had nothing to do but enjoy my new accommodations. I highly recommend Downsizing Solutions for anyone who is thinking of moving and reorganizing their space.”
Big move to The Village Of Tansley Woods! 
“Thank you to Sarah Logue Remax for recommending Downsizing Solutions! We called Mary and she returned our call within 10 mins and then she showed up at our door to meet us. It was nice to see Mary and Sarah's working relationship. The team first came in and prepped our house for sale. Then we had it staged. It was a shock to us to see the change. It was amazing. The experience dealing with all the steps exceeded our highest expectations. From packing us up a few days before and wrapping our furniture on move day, everything was professionally done. Once we showed up into our new suite, I was surprised to see the team had furniture placed where we imagined it would go. Everything we brought fit because you made it fit. It looks fantastic. We were happy to see two team members come back the next day to hang the mirrors and pictures for us. I was very pleased with the diversity and expertise of the team. I totally got a kick out of Mary! I could banter with her all day long. It was an over all total package working with Mary and her team!
Thank you Mary.” ~ Brian and Hope | The Village Of Tansley Woods
Another busy week! “Thank you to The Williamsburg Retirement Residence for recommending Downsizing Solutions. I called Mary and she came and met with us to explain everything . A few days later, one of her downsizers came to look around my condo and take pictures to organize my move. I had quite a few donations and the team packed them up and took them away. They were fabulous! The Condo Board President commented and said they were wonderful as well! On the day of my move, I felt completely relaxed . The team had everything organized, moved and set up perfectly!! I am so happy with my new suite . It’s gorgeous!!”
Another fun job with great clients!
“The work was excellent. If you asked ‘out of 10’, was 10/10. It was a complete service with all our needs covered. The team was handy, did our packing, unpacking, organizing, took donations and junk removal and even did the handy work. They put everything else away in an organized way, in neat storage boxes. It was done very quickly with go getters, who were easy to get along with. I did zero work on my part, but supervision, instruction and what I wanted. I was allowed the time to think, yet it was systemic to make things efficient and fast. It was like a football game/team huddle. Before our move, with one day left, to pack and move, another company cancelled at the very last minute. We didn't know what to do, so we found Mary Dilly. She immediately came to the rescue. It was all excellent." ~ Kent
Circumstances change but your home doesn’t have to. Another great internal move at LaSalle Park Retirement Community. “I have lived here for seven years and love it. I was so grateful when Stephanie Spring recommended Downsizing Solutions for my move. I moved from one suite to a larger suite. The team was quiet, very quick, extremely friendly and efficient. I am very happy with my new suite. It looks exactly like my old suite.” ~ Eric M.

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.

A happy internal move at Amica Bronte Harbour!
“Thank you to Amica Bronte for recommending the Downsizing Solutions team! They were absolutely amazing from start to finish. They even came a day early to pack, which made everything so much less stressful. I did not have to do a stroke of work. They assisted me in making decisions about donating furniture. Everything was arranged perfectly in my new place. I was thrilled to see that my pictures were hung in the same spots as in my old suite. I now get to enjoy a beautiful river view every day! They even dropped some items of at my son’s home. I am happy with the whole experience. Thank you.” ~ Nancy | Amica Bronte Harbour

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 happy Pearl & Pine Retirement Residence resident!
“We heard about Downsizing Solutions from two other residents here at Pearl and Pine who have used downsizing solutions in the past and highly recommended them and how great they are. It was a big job to pack up our home and donate every thing that was left. The team worked hard and got the job done. They even moved some furniture into our basement that we wanted to keep for just a little bit longer. The cleaning of our house was fantastic. We are very happy with the service they provided. Thank you” ~ Joan
“A huge thank you for making my parents home sparkle and shine. We are all very happy. The kitchen floor looks brand new. Like a different tile. The tenants, my parents along w/ myself are all very, very happy. It's been a pleasure.” ~ Christine (daughter)
A great internal move at Pearl & Pine Retirement Residence!
“Thank you Downsizing Solutions for coming to my suite to move some of my belongings to a different suite while I was getting new flooring. The team came back a week later and placed all my furniture back in the right places.
They even made sure my two TV’s were hooked up and working before they left.
Well done. Great work. Thank you.” Jim | Pearl & Pine 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

This is the 4th move we have done for this family. We love working with them! “Thank you once again to Downsizing Solutions for coming to the rescue! Mary was prompt and very accommodating on such short notice. The team was very quick at packing and loading the truck. Thank you for helping me pick out what furniture would fit into my mom's new suite. I am thankful for the team dropping off extra furniture to my home and donating the extra. furniture. The movers were very careful while taking care of my mom's belongings. Downsizing solutions has always done a fantastic job on all our moves.” Miklos @The Abington

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

Our first move into Edgewater Senior Living. “Thank you Downsizing Solutions for another wonderful move.
This is the third move you have helped us with. The team was on time and moved everything quickly so my dad didn't have to wait too long to get into his new suite. We were a little worried about everything fitting into the new suite after downsizing to a smaller one. The team managed to arrange the furniture so most of it would fit. The furniture was set up just like his old suite, with the pictures hung in the perfect spots, Looks and feels just like home. Thank you.” ~Julie

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 happy move to Atria Burlington Gardens! “Where do I even begin?
We have moved 13 times and this was the best move ever! We have had furniture damaged before but Downsizing Solutions did an amazing job. They treated my belongings with tender loving care. They really put their hearts into their work and it shows! The furniture was placed perfectly. They did more then expected. They treated us like family - they are my new grandkids. The team was amazing. Everyone had great personalities. Thank you.”
~ Barbara and Guther | Atria Burlington Gardens

We love doing moves to Granite Landing in Cambridge!
“Thank you Downsizing Solutions for my dad's move to his new home. The team was wonderful, the communication between everyone was fantastic. They were easy going, very organized and always had a big smile on their faces.
This made it so much more easier on us. We are so happy with his new suite. Dad said ‘it's home’.”

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 moving people into VIVA Oakville Retirement Community, especially when they pay for the moves!
“Thank you to Viva Oakville for recommending Downsizing Solutions. This company goes above and beyond. Definitely more then the regular service from other moving companies. The pack up was wonderful and quick. The team is amazing at what they do! You can see there is a system. The movers were wonderful. The team was having fun with each other, while being very attentive to what my mom might want. The team was so fun to work with and I would highly recommend Downsizing Solutions to everyone.” ~ Debbie M.
"A big thank you to Delmanor Glen Abbey for recommending Downsizing Solutions! The whole process has been wonderful . From the first day where the team prepped our house for sale and took donations, they have been wonderful. The team did an amazing job of packing and setting up our suite. The movers were wonderful and all worked so hard. We are so happy with how our new home was set up. It feels so cozy in here!! We will definitely reccomend Downsizing Solutions to all of our friends!" ~ Dianne and Bob | Delmanor Glen Abbey
We LOVE repeat customers! “This is the second move that Downsizing Solutions has done for us. They moved my mom into LaSalle Park Retirement Community three years ago and, today, they downsized her to a smaller suite with more care options for her. The team was great! It was done in a timely and efficient manner. Everyone was great to work with. They even hung her curtains! The move went very well and we are very grateful!” ~Jacquie B.

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

Thank you to Stephanie Spring for these very kind words!
“I worked with Mary and her team recently for an internal move at LaSalle Park Retirement Community. Everything went perfectly, as it usually does with a Downsizing Solutions move! Mary’s communication and kindness towards our residents was greatly appreciate by all involved. Our residents said that not only was it a job well done, but that the team exceeded their expectations and they couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much to Mary and her team, we look forward to working with you again and again!”
~ Stephanie Spring, Executive Director | LaSalle Park Retirement Community

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.

Thank you.” ~ Gail | The Williamsburg Retirement Residence

Another great move into VIVA Oakville Retirement Community!
“Thank you VIVA for their incentive bonus! They paid for my lovely move!
Thank you Downsizing Solutions for taking the hike out to Scarborough to move my wife and I to VIVA in Oakville. This team is the best. They were on time, very fast and welcoming.

Another great move to Atria Burlington Gardens!
“We heard about Downsizing Solutions after meeting Mary at an event. We weren’t sure if the tight timelines were going to work but the team arrived quickly! Everything about the move was SPLENDID!! We so appreciated the flexibility the team showed while moving everything into the suite. It looks wonderful!! We are so greatful that the team even mounted the tv on the wall!! Thank you so much!”

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

We LOVE moving lovely clients into the lovely Pearl and Pine Retirement Residence!!
“Thank you to Mary Dilly and her efficient, wonderful staff!
I cannot begin to tell you how incredibly pleased my husband and I were with the excellent team who moved us to Pearl and Pine. They could not have been more helpful and understanding of our situation. My husband is 92 and I am 88 and it was overwhelming for us, until Mary and her team came to our rescue. Mary assured me that they would take care of everything and I was to have no worries concerning our move. True to her word, I was immediately at ease when Jennifer arrived and started packing. Wayne and Demetrius were our movers. What a GREAT team!! They worked so well together, packing and handling all our possessions with care. And I was thrilled with the way they had set up our suite….everything exactly where I would have put it…. it looked amazing. I cannot thank each one of you enough for such dedication in making our move as easy as possible for both of us.” ~ Beth and Victor | Pearl and Pine Retirement Residence 

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 CommunitiesVIVA 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.

We don’t just do moves - we downsize, organize and clear out also!
“Thank you, Lori VanDinther, for recommending Downsizing Solutions. I could not have done this move without Mary and her team of thoughtful people. They are fast and efficient. They came in and helped me organize, clear out and donate three times. I was so happy to be able to donate some of my possessions to people who will appreciate them as much as we did. Thank you Mary and your amazing team. One happy customer!” ~ Laura
We love three-time clients!
"Three times a charm. Thank you, Mary, for sending your awesome team again to help with the estate clear out of my aunt’s suite at Grandview Retirement Living. The team was punctual, efficient and careful with my belongings.
Thank you for taking the donations for people in need. You took a burden of my shoulders.
Thank you.” ~ Marion H. | Grandview Retirement Living

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)

LaSalle Park Retirement Community

"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

This is the 3rd job we have done for this lovely family!
“Thank you again to Downsizing Solutions for such wonderful work. Thank you for working around my schedule to come sort, organize, mark items for keep and items for donations from my grandfather's estate on a Saturday. The team was nice, pleasant and quick on clear out day also. Thank you again! I would definitely recommend Downsizing Solutions!” ~Kyle H.

 

So happy to have helped this woman with her "movers from hell"!
"I survived the 'Move From Hell' thanks to the Angels at Downsizing Solutions!
The entire chain of events could make a drama of the week episode on Netflix, but I'll summarize so I can say how deeply grateful I am to Mary Dilly and Sheila at Downsizing Solutions for the positive outcomes.
All my furniture and personal possessions were in a climate controlled storage for 7 months in Burlington while I travelled. I'd planned an extended adventure before my 70th birthday but had to cut it short to accommodate major surgery. Since I have dual Canada/US citizenship, I decided to settle and recuperate in Arizona where I already had a network and connections to top surgeons.
Thus began my quest to find a moving company to relocate my contents across the border and transport my goods thousands of miles. I researched and reviewed quotes from seven movers, but ultimately chose the wrong one. (a very different review - trust me!)
Since I was physically unable to return to Canada to supervise the final packing and loading by the moving company, it was vital to find someone I could trust to protect my interests.
Thanks to recommendations from several people, I was able to hire Downsizing Solutions to represent me at move out from storage, and, even more importantly, ensure that all my possessions were safely loaded and stowed for transport to the USA.
Sheila from the Downsizing Solutions team did an amazing job of packing/repacking items that I originally thought would simply move from point A to point B locally. A cross-docked, cross border move required more care and Sheila handled that and photographed everything as insurance against loss or damage.
She also deftly managed the moving company's late arrival and shoddy equipment plan with composure, always protecting my interests and budget.
Mary and Sheila gave me such peace of mind and confidence. They are so professional and skilled at smoothing out wrinkles caused by others who are not as professional.
Downsizing Solutions pricing is fair and the value of their service was, as said; PRICELESS.
Moving is stressful.
Downsizing is overwhelming.
Downsizing Solutions are angels that make big life events so much easier.
If you are moving in or out, downsizing, redecorating, listing, staging, moving local or long distance, call Downsizing Solutions and know you will be in good hands!
TEN out of TEN STARS!"
~Alexandra I.

 

Another great downsize with hundreds of brand new items to donate to people in need!

“I thought that I was looking for movers when I realized that what I really needed was downsizers and movers! I looked up ‘downsizing’ and the first hit was Mary Dilly, the owner of Downsizing Solutions, talking about her full-service moving company on CHCH. I looked up the company website and it really resonated with me.
After moving my parents some time ago, I realized that you don’t have to wait until you are ‘old’ to consider downsizing and that you can dramatically reduce what your kids have to deal with if you downsize earlier.
You have to get to the right mindset to be able to do this, you need to be motivated by something. Another motivation for me was that we decided to renovate our basement which would create a great space for my grandchildren. My advice to others would be to think about downsizing before you think you have to!
I had tremendous guilt attached to having so much stuff but was absolutely satisfied knowing that it is not garbage and that by some way, shape or form my things will be useful to someone else.
Throughout the process, the team was terrific to work with. The downsizing team was well suited for this work. Their gentle manner makes them very capable to handle even sensitive situations. The movers were great and got a whole lot of boxes out quickly with a great attitude.
Downsizing is not just for seniors and not just for moving… you can just let it go to gain space and free your mind!”
~Peggy
