My husband and I hired Blue Nest Home after my FIL moved into assisted living. We needed to get the house ready to sell and going thru all the "stuff" was overwhelming. The Blue Nest Home crew came in, cataloged everything, took photos, placed it on an auction site, then met with the winning bidders to give them their items, and took everything else to donation, recycle with the last stop being the landfill. They deep cleaned the house so it would be show ready. And the best part -- because of the auction, not only were the costs offset, we got money back. (Obviously, those results depend on the value of the items that were auctioned. I know they could never promise that the auction income would pay for the work.) I think that if my husband and I had tried to accomplish the same thing, it would have taken months of going to the house after work hours and on weekends - the time savings was huge!

Read moreI first met Sheila Perreault and the blue nest home team in 2015 when I moved from Washington state to St. Louis, Missouri. It was a stressful time in my life, and the group was empathetic, and yet kept me focused and on point. I have used them since then to move some things I had in storage, and that went as smoothly as possible. The Blue Nest team has also done some auctions for me, which turned out a lot better than even I expected! Their "can do" attitude, and professionalism has made them a business I know I will use over again. I even give them a call once in a while from St. Louis, just to keep in touch. I would give them 10 stars if I could!...
