Scheduling
Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: What makes us different from our competition? First is our three layer approach to the downsizing process, we don't just come in and do it all in a few days. Step one is making sure the home you're selling is staged and cleaned out for optimal selling potential. Next we pack the home for the move, making final decisions on what to keep, sell, donate and trash (facilitating all). Finally, we unpack and do a final layer of cleaning out unwanted items as we give everything the client owns a "home" in their new home that makes sense for them. We also coordinate and oversee the move itself down to helping setup utilities and electronics. We make the process a personal experience and we love hearing the stories of keepsakes small and large. Our ultimate goals are for our clients to feel comfortable throughout the process, that they feel settled when we say goodbye, that they're relieved of many of the moving stresses and like the process was a pleasant one to look back on.

When I made a decision to leave my home of 33 years to move next door, I was overwhelmed with the amount of “stuff” my partner and I had overlfowing in our 2 bedroom home, along with a full walk-up attic full to the rafters, and a basement needing clean out as well.
My anxiety was relieved when I hired “Ms. Poppins” services to tackle the unloading of one house along with the set up of the new one. Jennifer immediately started with the attic purging and sorting. Bins of clothes were emptied and organized into trash and saving piles. She also bagged donations and delivered them to charitable organizations of my choice. My mother’s collection of over 300 Dickens Village pieces were inventoried, photographed, and sent online to family members to chose which pieces they individually wanted. A long overdue task. My vast Christmas decoration bins, boxes and bags were all sorted, re-boxed, and organized into a large closet in the new home making it easy to find when decorating occurred this past December. Years of memorabilia, photo albums, pictures, books, and the like also received the same treatment: keep, donate, or trash. Again, she made trips to my charities of choice for discarded items. Jennifer patiently helped me learn to discard items I was reluctant to let go of, easing my guilt in letting past memories go.
She continued the process with the living space. She secured a dumpster making it easy to purge immediately. Ms. Poppins physically packed all the boxes from the old home and unpacked them in the new home staging rooms ready for move in day. That day went smoothly knowing which room each piece of furniture or box was to be placed. Her artful eye for design made it so enjoyable watching her place paintings, wall shelves for my various collections from my travels, including my 130+ thimble collections from all over the world!
Ms. Poppins also took on the task of setting up the new billing accounts: National Grid, Spectrum, You Tube TV, Wifi, etc. Her suggestion of buying a Smart TV saved us $200 a month after she researched options to find the best buys for the desired viewing choices. She developed a spreadsheet to record accounts, along with passwords and security codes, a valuable tool I use weekly. Ms. Poppins staged my new office deciding furniture placement including storage and electronic placement for the computer printer. My entire file cabinet was reorganized, including purging old receipts and bills, shredding documents, and adding new folders for all accounts.
Jennifer was always prompt, dependable and adept at being flexible. She offered suggestions for organizational tools, always willing to research online or traveling to nearby stores for purchases making our new living space clutter free.
I continue to call on Ms. Poppins when I need assistance with household purchases, my computer phobia, or continued renovations of the new home with 1960’s elements needing updating.
Jennifer of Ms. Poppins has the skills needed to downsize, organize, or tidy up a space which isn’t working for you. No matter how small or large the job, I encourage you to call her to discuss your needs. She is eager to offer her assistance.
