Services Provided
Whether you have a few things to sell or an entire house to clear out, I will find new homes for your items. I can help you sort possessions and decide what to keep, and will then recommend the best way to sell the rest. I sell several ways, and receive a percentage of sales:
I also provide hourly decluttering and organizing services at a flat rate.
- Online: I select the best websites for reaching buyers (ebay, Facebook Marketplace, Chairish, Apartment Therapy Bazaar, and more), and handle everything from photography to shipping.
- In Person Sales: I use multiple sites to get maximum local coverage (craigslist, NextDoor, etc.), and handle the entire process, from creating the listing to meeting with buyers.
- Tag & Estate Sales: I organize sales from start to finish, including preparation, pricing, promotion, advance sales, day-of sales, and arranging donation or haul-away of unsold items.
I also provide hourly decluttering and organizing services at a flat rate.
Fees
Selling Services:
Decluttering & Organizing Services:
- You pay nothing up front.
- My fee is 35% of all sales, payable only after the sale.
- The only exception is for items that sell online for $50 or less, for which my fee is 50%.
- For online sales my percentage is charged only on net earnings after website fees, not gross.
- I periodically provide a detailed written accounting of all transactions.
- I pay out your earnings about once a month, but it varies with the volume of sales.
- For local sales made in person, if you prefer to meet with buyers yourself instead of having me do it, my fee drops to 25%.
Decluttering & Organizing Services:
- $50/hour.
- When this work also involves selling items, my standard selling percentage (above) will apply, rather than the hourly rate.
