Whether one party or the whole family is moving out of the house, Seriatim steps in with on-site household preparation and settling-in services.  We are not movers, but we work with them; our personalized services include preparing a home for an Open House, coordinating vendor appointments such as storage or movers, unpacking every box at the new home, or simply sorting financial and personal files.  We also offer a sophisticated household inventory for our clients in which values are assigned to digitally-photographed goods. We’re here to help you re-harmonize your home and your life.
