Best Moving Experience!

Moving is such an awful experience, but I cannot tell you how Pauline and her team made this experience as wonderful as possible. The whole team showed up ready to work on time, and went straight to work getting our entire space packed up in a day. (We overheard the movers commenting on how great the packing was). Then on move day, they helped unpack, a service I didn't know I needed and now am not sure I can live without! I kid you not, I have never been happier to pay for a service. My only regret was not having them coordinate the move itself, but we already had it organized prior to engaging them for the packing services. Our new place is so organized, I am so happy. Don't hesitate using Simply Home for your moving needs - you will not be disappointed.

Sorting through emotional clutter…one box at a time

Pauline Duhart of Simply Home Downsizing is an angel, and her team is amazing! Julie and Leah came to our home to help cull and organize years of accumulation, including my deceased parents possessions. They were respectful, non-judgmental, and repurposed items through charities and women’s shelters. Not only are they consummate professionals, but patient and compassionate as well. I unreservedly recommend Paula and her team to help you organize and simplify your life!

Efficient and Compassionate Estate Management Service

The Simply Home Downsizing team did a wonderful job of packing up my late mother's home after she had passed away. They were very conscientious in helping to find and set aside significant items we wanted to keep in honour of my mother's memory, while packing and moving out other items for donation to charity. The whole process was very efficient and the total cost came in significantly under estimate. Simply Home Downsizing was a great help to my family at a very challenging time.

Removal of 40 years of clutter

Pauline met me at my mother’s condo, to discuss how she and her team would perform the incredible task of removing 40 years of accumulated “stuff” from the unit. We needed to get it ready for sale ASAP. Mom wasn’t what I would call a hoarder, her condo was alway immaculate, but she was definitely a pack rat. Four days later, everything was boxed, bagged and ready for the move out. Pauline looked after clothing and furniture donations, recycling, and garbage removal. It was completely painless. My inexperience in dealing with this type of situation was evidently clear, when I failed to provide a damage deposit to the condo corporation for the use of the elevator on the move out date. I was hours away, so Pauline quickly ran out to the bank and provided the deposit herself. I can’t thank the team enough. Pauline saved the day, and a week after we first met, there was an empty condo unit ready for sale.

Hi Jason, Thank you for the detailed review - - you and your siblings did a super job of putting aside the items you wanted to keep, prior to our teams' arrival. That always speeds up the process. Good luck to you and your Mom for a successful condo sale! - The Simply Home Team

Ethical, Professional, and Hassle Free

Selling a property in which you are living is an emotional roller-coaster. Rosalind was so compassionate and empathetic of our situation while providing the best and most professional service. Rosalind also has a knack in creating the most ethical working space by recruiting wonderful staff who were also understanding of our situation, and who always gave us great advice on packing, organizing, and categorizing our items in the house. Our place looked impeccable once they were done redesigning it. We really do believe one of the major reasons that we were able to sell our property fast and way over the asking price was the work Rosalind and her team have put into it. By the time we were moving out of our place, we did not have much else to do in terms of packing. If we ever need any interior design or downsizing, we would definitely return to Simply Home. We would unreservedly recommend them.

Magicians at Home Organization and Decluttering

WHAT A GREAT TEAM - I had been stuck for a few years with an overflow of items in my small condo and pieces that I had brought over from my family home. There was too much accumulated and no space that I could think of.

I am so very happy that I called Rosalind and her team to help me out. THEY WERE FANTASTIC at helping me get my space organized and helped me get out of the piles of clutter, the dated items I was holding onto and gave my space the new look that I needed.

My space looks so much bigger now and I could not have done it without them. It would have taken me forever!!

This task has completely changed my energy and outlook recently and I feel so much better as a result. Her team is so delightful to be around and also very professional. I would say to you reading this review, don't even hesitate - JUST BOOK THEM!!

Simply Home is Simply Amazing!

Pauline and her team are amazing! We moved our two five year old kids and pets in a very short period of time. The team packed our entire house, put it in storage, staged our house to sell it and then moved all our stuff and unpacked it at our new house. We barely lifted a finger. They also organized everything we had, decluttered and arranged to donate, recycle or remove anything we did not need anymore. Not only that - the team was so friendly and professional - they all love their jobs! Simply Home made what is usually a stressful experience easy. Simply Amazing!!!

Just not enough kind words

I am so pleased with the kind and caring service from the whole team, Pauline, Anne and Julie. They came in and packed up my stuff, and were empathetic when I was having difficult times making decisions about getting rid of some things! I have already recommended them to family and friends.

Simply Home - The Best!!

Pauline and her team of heroes came into our space and were able to completely organize, box up, move out and donate almost everything. It was a massive job, that would have taken the family weeks to go through, but Pauline and team were in and out in a day and a half. They are truly incredible, lovely and a hard working group of people that seem to love what they do. We will absolutely be working with Simply Home for any future moving or organizing needs, and will be recommending them to all our friends and family.
