CLEARING A LOVED ONE'S HOME
When a family home needs to be cleared
Clearing a parent's home or an inherited house is a lot to carry. We handle the sorting, set aside what matters to your family, and take care of donations, consignment and removal, so you can focus on each other.
We work gently and at your pace, and we're happy to coordinate with family members near and far.

Heirlooms set aside and labeled for children and grandchildren.
Consignment

FROM A FAMILY WE HELPED
“My mom was very anxious about the move and they helped her feel at ease. “
“I hired Habitual Home Organizing to help my mom unpack after a move to independent living. They were really professional and super patient and kind. Great service!”
WHAT IT COSTS
Packages built around your move
We offer a number of packages based on your space and goals. Once you fill out our inquiry form, we'll suggest the package that's right for your project.
Containers and packing supplies are an additional investment, and we're always happy to work with what you already have.
TIMING
How long does it take?
Every home is different. Timing depends on the size of the home, how much has been collected over the years, and how many family members are part of the decisions. We work at a pace that feels right, and we know how valuable your time is.
Once you fill out our inquiry form, we'll map out a realistic plan and suggest the package that's best for your project, so there's no guessing on either end.
