The Great Estate RE-Cycle, Minimizing Waste & Maximizing Returns!



The Process of Downsizing and Organizing an individual to prepare for a relocation always results in boxes and bags of items to be gotten rid of in some way. 

Fortunately, during that process, we usually discover 'lost', hidden or forgotten valuables for the individual or estate. Sometimes this pays for the investment in our services and many times pays for relocation costs!

Over the past 11 years I have donated thousands of items to charity on behalf of my clients, whether individuals in transition or estates. I have sold hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of collectibles, antiques, kitsch and household goods for estates, salvaged thousands of pounds of leftover metal and architectural pieces, and recycled un-measurable quantities of paper, cardboard, plastics, batteries- anything that is recycle-able, we try to recycle.  Unfortunately, there is always trash left behind. This goes to the landfill.

What makes Mission:Transition different is our focus and attention to DETAIL, RE-USE AND RE-CYCLING before Trash is considered. It is always the last resort. I feel the result is a project of higher integrity.
