Reviews

"I just finished reading your wonderful book. Thank you for sharing your stories, experiences, and advice. I was so moved by the powerful stories of your clients that I teared up several times reading them. You are helping people during such a vulnerable time in their lives. I was very inspired by the way you coached your clients to consider the move and downsizing process as an act of self-care and self-realization. I particularly liked the message that you shared with clients about deserving to live in a home that allows them to make the most of their life. I found your book very inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing your loving perspective of downsizing and SMM with me through your beautiful book. I greatly appreciate your efforts to write it and share it with others."

"I have been a Professional Organizer in St. Louis, MO since January 2010 and read your first edition many years ago and loved the book. I realized in the Fall of 2019 there was a 2nd edition. I promptly purchased it!"

"Vickie, just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your book Don't Toss My Memories in the Trash. I'm currently helping my seventy-five year old mom downsize and move, as well as facing my in-laws future downsizing AND working with a lot more seniors as a professional organizer. The information you provide is really valuable. I shared the link on my facebook page. Thanks so much!

"I would recommend 'Don't Toss My Memories in the Trash' by Vickie Dellaquila. She is a professional organizer and a member of NASMM. Some of the communities we work in give the book as a door prize for my downsizing presentations and events. It's easy to follow and has examples and checklists/resources in the back of the book."
