"Wendy and her team at Tackle Your Stuff came highly recommended. We knew we needed help. My family had a big job to do. We had to move my mother from her house of 45 years, to another city, with her two daughters living out of town, all within 6 weeks.
She came in and assessed what was needed and worked with my mother during that period. Wendy was kind, patient and very understanding. She was able to find a place to donate furniture, dishes, and other household items. That was very important to my mother and to our whole family.
Wendy found us a mover, did most of the packing for the move and was at the house to direct the mover. She and her team emptied and cleaned the entire house prior to the listing. She was in regular communication with us and we couldn't have done it without her.
We are so grateful and we have no hesitation in recommending her services."

"Wendy helped us tremendously when it came time to sell our mother’s house. It took her three weeks to empty out a house full of belongings dating back 60 years. We were reassured that she made donations to all the right people, disposed of and recycled all unusable items.
She took charge of letting trades people in and out while she was at the house. She was checking in with us on a regular basis.
Wendy is extremely well organized and very down to earth. Always in a good mood and respectful, non-judgmental, warm, with a great sense of humour, she also provided great emotional support.
We highly recommend Wendy at Tackle Your Stuff for her professional and meaningful work! A very well-run small business!"

"We used Wendy at “Tackle Your Stuff” to help us prepare for an estate sale of my father's home after he passed away. My father was a child when his family escaped a work camp and fled Europe during the second world war. As a result of this background, he never threw anything away that could be of some use one day. There were papers, books, tools, magazines, and even the large suitcases they came to Canada with in the 40s, all contained in this home he built when I was a child. The idea of having to comb through all of his belongings to figure out out how to dispose of or find new homes for everything was overwhelming.
With “Tackle Your Stuff” on the job, we were able to go through all of my father's effects without the stress of disposing of unwanted items and emptying a large, full house. We could just appreciate and reflect on a life well-lived.
Wendy did an amazing job of recycling, selling, and finding new homes for a lifetime of accumulated objects that will be appreciated by others. Wendy also brought to our attention anything she thought was of value that we may have missed. She is completely trustworthy, professional, efficient, and hardworking, and we had 100% confidence that she would get the job done within the required time-frame. She kept us updated throughout the process. I was so happy she was there for us. I strongly recommend “Tackle Your Stuff” for anyone who needs her services."

"Disposing of stuff can be very tough
Call Wendy today; she will take it away!
We hired Wendy, Tackle Your Stuff, to help us sort, clear and clean a large full home in preparation for sale.
The TYS staff is knowledgeable, trustworthy, reliable, discerning, sensitive, and compassionate.
As a bonus they are inventive and pretty good at problem solving as well."

"I was in the process of selling my house and buying a condo. I used Wendy's services from start to finish. She helped me with staging my house for selling which meant moving furniture and some serious decluttering.
Once the house sold, I again used Tackle Your Stuff to help me pack for my move and then to help me unpack and organize my belongings when I moved into my new condo. This service was great throughout the entire process.
Wendy is amazing and always willing and able to do what needs to be done. She took the stress out of trying to do it all myself. I would recommend Wendy without hesitation."

"When our Mother/Mother-in-law passed away, we contacted Wendy at Tackle Your Stuff to help us clear and clean her house. Wendy was sensitive to the difficult time that we were going through emotionally, and was respectful and professional throughout the process. This was a large house, which had been Mother's home for over 60 years, so to clear and clean it was a big job.
We were very impressed when she had found some money which had been hidden in the house, and called us immediately to let us know.
She made sure to meet our very short deadline - the closing date of the sale of the house. When the new owners took possession of the house, they told us what a good job that Wendy and her team had done, how clean the house was, and we thoroughly agree.
We would highly recommend Wendy and her company for this type of job. She did everything that she advertised - and more."

"Alphabet® had accumulated over 10 years of 'stuff' in our building basement. Tackle Your Stuff worked with us to clear out our basement, donating a large number of items to various charities and recycling much of the remainder.
When we had moved to a newly renovated location, Tackle Your Stuff sourced, purchased and built new floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall cabinetry for all our essential office supplies and equipment, organizing it all in an easily accessible way.
We could not be happier with both projects. Both locations were left immaculate and the work was done quickly. Working with Tackle Your Stuff was so easy and beneficial that I am using them to tackle my stuff at home. That, I think, is the best recommendation!"

"The wonderful people at Tackle Your Stuff helped us out immensely. We were, as executors of an estate, responsible for packing up a three-storey duplex (both sides) that was occupied by the same family for 72 years. You can imagine the mess we were faced with. Tackle Your Stuff undertook the sorting, packing, tossing, organizing, and recycling of a mountain of household articles.
With professional and courteous (and timely) precision, they managed the impossible. Much of the household was recycled or donated to local charities, and whatever could be used again was sent to the appropriate agency.
We are more than happy to say the job done was beyond our expectations, and we will hire their services again when necessary. The job was exemplary and we recommend them to anyone who needs someone else to tackle their stuff. Bravo."

"Tackle Your Stuff" were a "rescue" to my family. They get the job done! They are a pleasure to deal with, professional, prompt & tactful when dealing with delicate family situations. Their resources & guidance moving, removing stuff & providing an outside eye were invaluable. We feel so lucky to have found them.
Can't thank them enough."

"It was a lot easier to "tackle my stuff" knowing that the things I no longer wanted or needed were going to be donated and put to good use: my dog's old items to the Humane Society, books to the public library, clothing to Goodwill... Knowing that not only made it easier to part with my old stuff but mostly, it made me feel good to give it away. Thanks. That made a huge difference."

"Tackle Your Stuff not only cleaned up years’ worth of built-up materials, but also reorganized our chaotic storage spaces. They were proactive in the selection and purchasing of shelving and organizational resources.
They ensured that the proper measures were taken in the disposal of outdated materials and were responsible for donating our unused supplies to appropriate charities.
Their focused approach to tackling our stuff transformed our office space seemingly overnight."

"We hired Tackle Your Stuff to oversee and deal with all of the household effects of an estate. This included the sorting and packaging of all household items, personal effects, and clothing. Tackle Your Stuff is diligent, professional and handled all personal items in a confidential manner. They also cleaned the premises and spruced up the yard. They managed the process with minimal guidance and their fee was very reasonable.
We are pleased to recommend their services."

"Tackle Your Stuff worked efficiently and incredibly hard clearing unwanted items from my basement and dealt with all the things I was feeling overwhelmed by - where and how to get rid of e-waste, recyclables, personal papers for shredding, goods for charity etc. The task was made easier physically, practically, and emotionally - I could not have faced dealing with it all on my own. I'm very grateful for their excellent work and I strongly recommend them."

"Thank you for your magnificent work. I was really impressed by your ability to size up the problem quickly, develop an excellent strategy, and execute it smoothly.
You did precisely what was needed (though I didn't realize beforehand that this was what I really needed): simply a better-organized storage space, so I can start whittling away at the Stuff on my own time. Thank you for doing just what was needed, and empowering me to now take over."

"As I prepared to list my house Tackle Your Stuff de-cluttered, cleaned, and removed “stuff” to donate or recycle or for garbage as warranted.
They are conscientious and hard working. I had complete confidence leaving them alone in my home as I went to work.
I am very satisfied with the work that they have done."
