What our past clients have to say...
Thanks, Karen, for your meticulous attention to detail. Your organizational skills plus a competent team made my sale a success, took much of the stress out of my move and made downsizing manageable. It was a pleasure to work with your company.
I will recommend your service to anyone I know who plans to move.
Sincerely,
C
From my first conversation with Karen, I was impressed. Karen was upfront, honest, and straightforward regarding her services, the costs associated, what could be expected throughout the process. She met me for a walk-through the house, to assess what she would be up against, and was more than fair with her time as I discussed with the rest of my family having Karen prepare for, run, and clean up after an estate sale at my parents' home.
When the time came, Karen and her team not only beautifully prepped for the sale but was able to deal with a difficult situation which arose with a couple of neighbors with a calm professionalism, allowing our sale to move forward with much success. Despite numerous unforeseen issues, Karen was able to control the situation, run the sale and throughout, kept us up to date. When all was said and done, the house was empty and ready for the cleaners.
We found the value we received from Karen's services to be exceptional, and highly recommend Karen and her team at EstateSalesBarrie.

I’m writing this note to say how pleased I was with the service I received from Karen and her crew when clearing the estate for my mother in December. Karen arrived true to her word at 10 am sharp and began to work and was done by 12:30 pm allowing me to get back home( a three hour drive) by 5pm. Karen was so easy to work with as were her helpers, always polite and friendly as well as hard working. I would not hesitate to have this company do work for me again in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone needing removal service’s. It was so nice to have someone show up and deliver when it had to be done.

From the initial consultation with Estate Sales Barrie, we knew we were in good hands with Karen Couto and her team. Karen’s warm personality and compassion made us feel at ease throughout our process of downsizing from a 3500 square foot house to an 820 square foot condo. She understands the process of parting with monetary and sentimental belongings.
The entire experience was seamless, stress free, with speed and great efficiency. Karen and her team were professional, punctual, meticulously clean and patient from beginning to end.
Thank you Karen for your amazing service. We are so grateful to have met you.

When we moved my dad to assisted living, the Estate Sales Barrie crew was faced with a house packed with 60 years of accumulated possessions ranging from precious to junk.
Karen was completely transparent about pricing and timing. Her crew did an amazing job, coordinating well with me, security and the broker.
The house was completely emptied on time and on budget.
Further, Karen was able to sell thousands of dollars worth of furniture and other material. Much more than I could have hoped.
Friendly, caring, timely, affordable, efficient and effective. I highly recommend the Estate Sales Barrie team.
Many thanks for your help!
My best,
M.C.

"I wanted to send a quick note to say that I highly recommend the services that Jen and Karen can provide for you. In dealing with them, they have both been most accommodating when they assisted me in the packing and cleaning up of an estate home. They are very pleasant and professional taking the utmost care in proving the services required to get the job done in a timely manner. I would highly recommend using their services for your needs...they won't disappoint."

"I was a client of Estate Sales Barrie in April of 2022. I met with Karen and Jen to discuss my situation and needs, and was very impressed with their professionalism, organization, and understanding. It's fair to say that my situation was extreme and required a team that was not only able to remove an excessive amount of clutter and garbage, but also to identify and organize items of value, both monetary and sentimental, as well as items worthy of donation. The team at Estate Sales Barrie not only rose to the challenge but exceeded my expectations. They worked very quickly and efficiently, while also being very understanding of and compassionate to my sensitivity through a difficult emotional process.
I highly recommend their services for any situation and am confident that any and all future clients will have a similarly positive experience.

Our Services
Estate Sales
Estate Sales are ideal for families or spouses who have lost a loved one and need us to take care of the items that are no longer needed in the home. Our job is to help, with what can often be an overwhelming time for many.
We meet to discuss what will be going to family, sold, or given away.
The team comes in to sort, organize and price all contents remaining in home. The sale is set up and run at the clients home.
We can take photos and advertise the sale on our Facebook page, Facebook Marketplace, Instagram and above on our website. Estate Sales Barrie also has an extensive list of customers that we email prior to sales to let them know what's coming up.
When the sale is complete we can donate and dispose of all remaining items, if you wish.
An e-transfer will be sent for remaining funds, after our services are paid for. If we are asked to do additional services or the amount of work surpasses the amount of money raised at the estate sale, the estate will be billed according to an individual agreement.
Hourly Pricing of $80 for two staff, any additional staff required is $30 per person, per hour is charged for the initial organization, disposal and set up for the sale. The sales are hosted on a Friday and Saturday, the rate charged for those days is $90 per hour for up to 4 people and there is a 5% commission on the items that are sold at the sale.
