Customer Testimonials

Kim S.

Home Downsizing

I really can't say enough about what a positive experience working with Alivio Solutions was for me. I got a quote and when it came in it was like a huge weight had been lifted. They showed up when they said they would every time, they tailored the services to what we needed, they didn't try to add on or upsell, they were totally transparent and they got the job done - quickly and efficiently. Having Alivio step in and just handle everything (including me haha) was such a huge relief. They saved me - or at least what was left of my sanity. Highly recommend.

Mike Clarke | Keller Williams Real Estate

Home Downsizing

My clients and myself were well informed as to how everything would go. The execution of events precise and yet flexible to both myself and clients. I would highly recommend. Rita was excellent and her team.

Sara C.

Home Downsizing

Alivio was exactly what our family needed in a very stressful time. We hired them to downsize our grandfather's home after he had to move into assisted living unexpectedly. Because we all live out of town/province, it was virtually impossible to all of it ourselves, nor did we want to. They took care of EVERYTHING! The house literally looked like someone just walked out and they got it to pre-staging in a few days! We didnt have to worry about anything; they sold all our valuables, donated and disposed of everything else and coordinated the cleaning. They also worked so well with our realtor. Highly professional and we highly recommend their services! Thank you so much Alivio Solution!

Home decluttering

Rita arranged for her team to come to my home to declutter some rooms. They did a great job. The ladies on the team came on time, had a plan, were hardworking and considerate. I just sat there and made decisions. The ladies were a joy to be with. It could not have gone better. Thank you Rita, Diane, Delmy and Corrine.

Downsizing | Move

The clearing out of my brother in laws place went really well. Rita and her team were terrific and managed to get all the items that he might need in the future into a storage unit and donate most of the furniture directly to a family in need who had recently arrived to Canada. They were even able to pack up and drop off some clothes/toiletries at the hospital for my brother in law which was much appreciated. They were just Fantastic!

Home Downsizing

Rita and her team understand that downsizing your belongings is a very emotional experience. She is understanding and supportive about every aspect of preparing for the move. Her whole team is friendly, efficient and professional. I wish more people knew about this service - Rita and her staff are truly here to help people. I highly recommend their service to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed by an upcoming move.

Ken W.

Estate Downsizing

Getting rid of a lifetime of possessions is a most difficult task.
Aside from the emotional aspect there is the physical component that is overwhelming.. After my Uncle passed on, we had to get rid of all of his possessions that were not distributed to the family. We couldn't have done it without the professional experience of Rita and her team. Things were donated, recycled and auctioned off.
The whole experience was very pleasant and very efficient. I highly recommend Alivio for this type of job.

Kevin M.

Home Downsizing

My parents needed to move out of their single family home of 40 years and we needed someone to help with all of the stuff they had accumulated. Rita and her team were great. The online auction went very well and the house was empty and clean when they were done. I only wish I had contacted them sooner.
