What people have to say about us…

"Thank you for organizing my move so well; all the packing and unpacking, meeting the various trucks and emptying the house at the end- all done with such efficiency and good humor. It made everything so much easier. Thank you!"

— Susan Wolman

"When we moved into our new home three years ago, we unpacked in a whirlwind to get the boxes out of the house within 24 hours so that our young daughter would enter as settled a home as possible. This of course meant that the focus was on unboxing quickly rather than thoughtfully. Three years later, our kitchen still made no sense - nothing was organized intuitively, and what I could reach was often quite different from what my husband could reach.  As someone who loves to cook, I wanted the kitchen to be a source of joy rather than frustration. Anne-Stuart helped us transform our kitchen in a single afternoon into a space that brings me joy every day. By thoughtfully talking through what we use and what we love (and what we don't!), we completely changed the way in which our counters, drawers, and cupboards are organized. We found we had more than we needed or wanted and donated it to those who may need it more. As a result, what we DO want is easier to find, use, and put away. On top of that, our session was FUN! My husband and I genuinely enjoyed our session (and he'd had reservations!), and we were able to take the skills and strategies Anne-Stuart taught us and apply them throughout our home in the following months.  Thank you, Anne-Stuart and Maryland Move Managers!"

"AMAZING!! There aren’t enough positive words to describe the incredible job that Anne-Stuart Darrell and Kat Donohue Feinberg, of Maryland Movers, did in helping me relocate. After twenty years of living in the same house, and a lifetime of collecting antiques, the thought of moving was daunting. Everyone was so careful whether they were wrapping an 18thC Export bowl or an everyday coffee mug! In addition, each box was clearly labeled as to contents so that unpacking was made so much less difficult!! Their wonderful personalities and thoughtful understanding made the whole experience so much easier !! I’m so thankful my real estate agent recommended them!! I know you’ll be happy you chose them as well!!"

"Could not recommend this service enough! Spark Joy, Maryland came to the rescue! I had literally no idea how much stuff I had-my house was out of control. Before working with Anne-Stuart I felt like the stuff in my home was overwhelming and I had difficulty finding things. Wow! The results were incredible! My house is a paradise. I know exactly where things are. My house is so much easier to maintain and keep clean because everything has a place. I didn't know decluttering/getting rid of things could be a pleasant experience, but Anne-Stuart's cheery disposition and little sparks of humor made it a really enjoyable experience. I looked forward to our appointments not only because the results were like night and day, but also because she was so great."

"When I heard that my friend Anne-Stuart had been working to get certified in the KonMari style of living, I had so much admiration! I had read and watched her Marie Kondo's Netflix series and had always been intrigued. Anne-Stuart's personality was perfect for helping me make decisions on every item in my clothing closet. It was so much fun working with her and I am thrilled to still have an organized closet 7 months later. I loved all the container suggestions she gave me and they fit and work perfectly in my space. I can't tell you how grateful I am for her services and support! It is really one of the most satisfying and valuable experiences I have had this year. Especially in these uncertain times, having order and joy in your closet is incredibly comforting."

— Maureen Lalley, Ruxton, Maryland

"We unpacked all the boxes without a single broken, cracked or damaged item inside! You and your team did an outstanding job and we’re so grateful. All is going well and we’re settling into our new home with gusto. After so many moves, this will go down as the least painful, thanks to you and MMM!"

— John and Susan Racanelli, Baltimore, Maryland

"Maryland Move Managers was recommended to me to assist with downsizing and moving from a house we had lived in for 32 years. What started as a relatively routine process suddenly became anything but routine. The MMM crew made it happen and on time. The services were comprehensive. The staff were talented and professional. The downsizing process and record keeping were reassuring. But most of all, the compassion and care each member of the staff showed throughout my move was invaluable. I literally could not have managed this move without them."

— Karen Stott

"When my cousin recommenced Maryland Move Managers to help me clear out my parents’ house and office, I knew that they would be good, and I was pleasantly surprised that MMM was actually OUTSTANDING. MMM combines total professionalism, creativity and reliability such that they were able to find homes for a wide array of items, including 300 surplus copies of a bird photoplay book that I had published, enthusiastically received by a lovely retirement community in Owings Mills. Their attention to detail and punctuality are top flight, and their rates are more than reasonable!"

— Middleton Evans, Phoenix, Maryland

"I am delighted with the work done by Maryland Move Managers.... they found a home for all of my furniture and household items in a short time frame and at a great price. And the service was always with a smile. Impressive on every count. Can't do better than that!"

— R.M. Evans

"During the pandemic I hired Anne-Stuart Darrell to help me KonMari (organize and figure out what brought me joy) our kitchen.  The bad news is that I live in New York. The good news is that we could work together via Zoom. I wanted to maximize the utility of our small, frequently-used kitchen. Using the KonMari approach, Anne-Stuart directed me as we went through everything in our kitchen. I emptied every nook and cranny of our cabinets and pantry. It was a fantastic and rewarding process. I was able to recapture extra shelves and cabinets by only keeping those items that brought joy. Our kitchen is now beautifully and joyfully organized and much more functional. Throughout the process, Anne-Stuart was incredibly focused and gently kept me on track, as I have a tendency to be easily distracted. She has a special touch and I can’t wait to have Anne-Stuart help us other areas of our home."

— M. Moran, Harrison, New York

"I engaged Maryland Move Managers to organize, work on and manage my complicated move. My possessions were going to eight different locations and the MMM team competently and professionally handled the logistics. The stress of organizing this move was lifted from my shoulders. There were also items to be donated and sold – and they took care of that. The Maryland Move Managers team worked tirelessly to accommodate my needs. Not only were Maryland Move Managers completely responsive to the many necessary changes, but they were also cheerful and smart and absolutely first-rate in their handling of this project. Each member of MMM were professional, hard-working and knowledgeable. They are an incredible team, and I would, without hesitation, recommend them for any move."

"Moving is a big job, and relocating with a 30 day deadline was a task too big for me. Recommended by a friend, I put out an SOS to Anne-Stuart Darrell, the CEO of Maryland Move Managers. She quickly created an action plan to facilitate all of the intricacies of an out of state move. Her recommendations for my move and list of questions for the moves proved thorough and cost saving. As a Marie Kondo consultant, Anne-Stuart introduced me to the Marie Kondo philosophy that every object in my home should make me happy...'Spark joy'. Patiently working with me, Anne-Stuart worked as I pared down my belongings to items that only added to my life. The results were fewer boxes, more available space in my new home and a happiness with the items that were coming with me. However, the most remarkable thing about working with Anne-Stuart was her total commitment to being there with me. Her expertise and kindness made what seemed an overwhelming task not only fun at times but manageable. The tools I learned working with her, I will carry with me to my new home and beyond."

— Gail Campanella Snow, New Jersey

"I could not have moved myself. Thank you for your hard work, kindness, understanding and professionalism."

— Aileen K.

"Maryland Move Managers made the difference with my move from what could have been an overwhelming task to a joyful one! Anne-Stuart and Kat and all their staff were warm and friendly and so accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble for them! They packed up all my antique porcelain and other china and placed them in my new house. They also recommended a mover, a consignment shop and fine arts consultant too. They managed to find homes for so much of my furniture and decorative pieces which weren’t going to fit in our new, much smaller house! I would recommend Maryland Move Managers to everyone who needs help with their move! They are the greatest!"

"Maryland Mover Managers was nothing short of incredible. They were professional, caring and extremely knowledgeable. I cannot recommend them highly enough!"
