Downsizing & Move Management: “I was so impressed by how Step by Step handled my move to an apartment. It truly took the burden off of me, and not having to impose on family and friends was important. I highly recommend them to everyone regardless of age.”-Jan R, 
Downsizing & Move Management: “I never would have gotten out of the house we had lived in for 50 years without Mary’s kind and knowledgeable help.”–Jo Markwyn
Clean-outs: “I had the pleasure of working with Mary and her crew recently. They had a daunting task of clearing out a home I was putting on the market for sale. They were efficient, friendly, and willing to take anything away I needed.  They were instrumental in getting the home ready for sale, and I can’t thank them enough. I highly recommend Mary and her company and will definitely use them again!”–Jill O’Keefe
Downsizing & Move Management: “My husband and I were downsizing and leaving our house outside of Sebastopol. We were moving across country to Philadelphia to be near my daughter and other family members. We had lived in our house in Sebastopol for 15 years and we had a lot of possessions that we had accumulated, including a large collection of dishes, pottery and art work. We found Mary Marson through a friend and I can say truthfully, we could not have done the move without her. She had a great system of colored tapes representing things we would take, leave to friends, or sell. Mary would come to our house and assist us with the decisions of what we needed to take and also how we should dispose of what we didn’t take. She was a joy to work with and our stress level was very reduced thanks to Mary. I wish she was on the other end to help us unpack all the boxes she labeled for us so carefully so we would know what was in each box. I can’t recommend her enough.–Kathie O’Shea and Bill Carlsen 
 Downsizing & Move Management: “Mary Marson helped me downsize from a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house to a studio apartment, and I have no idea how I could have done it without her help! She was super supportive, patient, always helpful, and let me do it in the way that worked for me. I never felt pressured–not one bit. She supported me every step of the way, Step by Step!”–Marian McDonald
Clean Out: “Mary Marson provided a clean out of my brother’s home and yard during the month of April, 2023. Mary was very prompt to visit the home and give me a detailed estimate of what she thought she could sell, what amount could be donated to various nonprofits and what amount could be hauled to the dump as well as the total cost of her services. Throughout, she did her work with a tender understanding of my loss and communicated with me regularly. I have been so relieved to have this work completed by Mary. Mary’s prices are fair and for me she stayed at the very low end of her estimate. I would use her services again without hesitation. She leads a very trustworthy organization.”–Janet Robinson
Downsizing & Move Management: “Mary Marson was an absolute life saver during my mother’s move into a senior living community. My mother described herself during this time as very anxious, cautious and indecisive. Mary’s extremely calm and patient presence made the entire move (before, during and after) so much easier. She listened carefully, was perceptive in reading the emotion and feeling behind my mother’s words, and then acted accordingly to alleviate the stress that such a move makes. My mother stated that she felt she could call Mary at any time with both small and large concerns. Mary was very timely in all of her communications and always there when my mother became overwhelmed.”–Renee L.
