We get it—downsizing can feel like a mountain to climb. Maybe that box marked “tennis trophies ’85” has been in your basement for decades collecting dust. But the one labeled “baby’s first Christmas”? That’s a keeper! Sometimes, you need a gentle nudge to help with those big decisions. It may never feel like the right time—it’s uncomfortable, we know. But if you are asking yourself “when is the right time to downsize?” The answer is probably now. Let’s walk this journey together, and open the next door feeling lighter.

  • Full Downsizing Solutions: Organizing, packing, and setting up your new home.
  • Personalized Decluttering: Sorting and discarding items. 
  • Guided Decision-Making: Support in choosing what to keep, donate, or discard.
  • Respectful Handling: Thoughtful care for all your items.

Yevgeny was an exceptional partner to execute a very challenging sale. He went well 'above and beyond' expectations - always finding a way to address an issue. He was responsive and responsible, and I was both grateful and impressed with the work and the outcome. Highly recommend as a real estate partner!

My family and I was in crunch mode a couple of month ago to find a home. Then I met Eugene and boy did he ever come to our resuce . He was always ready and able for showings. At times I thought we weren't going to find anything he was encouraging and very supportive. He never stopped, after several showing he came through for us and we are delighted with our new place. Awesome realtor, he's dedicated supportive and he is always available when called upon Michelle and Family

    Our goal is to have your move be smooth and hassle-free so you can focus on enjoying your new space.

    You don’t have to worry about what to do with things you don’t want or need anymore. Team HSS offers a complete suite of services that will handle everything you don’t want. We will assist you in donating useful items to local charities-assuredly, they will make their way to people who need these items. We recycle items that cannot be donated in an environmentally responsible manner. When none of these is possible, we get rid of goods to minimize waste and ensure that it is environmentally friendly. We ensure that your furniture, clothes, and household items are responsibly disposed of or treated with sustainability in mind, while also minimizing waste.
