I had a 3-hour session with Sarah. My condo was being renovated at the time, so I had furniture…read moreeverywhere and people clanging and hammering upstairs. Sarah was great! I have a little IGTV show, and she was cool with being a part of it. We cleaned one side of my SUPER cluttered closet. And she gave me homework to work on the other sides. She would hand me boxes, I'd go through them and separate into shred, donate, garbage, recycle, or keep, and hand them back and we worked like that for the entire 3 hours. It's been maybe a month since she came and that side of my closet still looks like the day she left. It's kinda weird to have a stranger come into your house and help you go through your clutter, but just remember, they are there to help, not to judge. I'm only giving 4 stars because I sent a message saying I wanted her to come back and I just never heard back from them anymore. I'm thinking my place was probably tooooooo much of a cluster for her. EEK!!!

I am a hot mess. Not…read morereally, but my apartment is. I have searched high and low for home organizing services. All of them were too expensive. I'm not going to pay someone $65 per hour to purge my closet and organize my 250 sq. studio. I found SOS on Yelp. The 5-star reviews seemed questionable but after my experience, they deserve them! I started with a 3-hour appointment with Callie. She's an absolute doll. I am amazed by her creative organizing solutions! We went through my walk-in closet and kitchen. It helps to help. I couldn't just sit back and watch her organize my belongings. It can be tedious, but it's worth it! We accomplished A LOT. I couldn't have done it without her. I just don't have the motivation or drive. I can see my floor again! I found my favorite sweater! Everything makes sense now! I love, love, LOVE how organized my apartment is. I am so happy I found SOS and met Callie! I finally got it done! Plus: It feels nice coming home now.

I appreciated how easy Terri was to coordinate with - she even did a FaceTime with me before the session to give me some organization product ideas. Amy was our organizer on the day and she was lovely to work with. She helped us go through our master closet in a very nonjudgmental and straightforward way. She helped us donate almost 3 bags of items. We plan on working with Terri and her team again and would recommend for anyone to hire her for your organizing needs.

Four Years Later…read more.. The Chicago Organizer is still great at helping me get all of my stuff organized and manageable! After I moved house, I had so many rent-a-crates to unpack and return very quickly. I felt overwhelmed and couldn't move two feet without hitting a box, and unpacking by myself was too slow. I contacted Terri again. Terri couldn't come out to personally help me within my limited window of time, but she has fantastic team members. Kammy came to help me, stayed for just under five hours, and we unpacked every rent-a-crate plus all of the cardboard boxes! There is a little left to do in order to make my new place feel like home, but Kammy's help means that 95% of the work is done. I am so pleased with The Chicago Organizer. Terri and Kammy are kind, professional, quite fair in their pandemic requirements, and most of all -- HELPFUL. Money well spent again!

I needed help with prepping my place back in Chicago for movers, along with some related tasks…read more This involved working with someone trustworthy, flexible, and independent - as I am currently living out of state. What a relief it was to have someone like Heidi helping me out from start to finish. The job turned out to be a little bigger than I expected. But Heidi was super helpful, dependable, and flexible. This work involved not only doing some leftover packing, but working with the movers, storage location, and the cleaning service. Cannot imagine how challenging and nerve-racking this all could have been had I ended up having to work with someone else, or more likely - a few someone-elses :) Heidi kept me up to date each step of the way with texts and photos when appropriate. She provided me with detailed invoices so I knew exactly what I was paying for. And most importantly to me, she reached out when questions arose - which was inevitable with this type of situation. Everything is now completely done. My belongings are safely stored. My apartment was left in great condition - and my previous property managers are happy. Not sure what the word or phrase is for something far better than a "job well done", but that's how I would describe my experience working with Heidi. Zero hesitation recommending her services to anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy person to help out.

Heidi worked with me 4 hours a week for several weeks to help get some household projects (like…read morefiling, organizing, present wrapping) and errands (dry cleaning, post office, store returns) under control.

Nancy is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone in need of some serious organizing/downsizing!…read moreFrom our very first phone call I was extremely impressed. My husband and I hired Nancy to assist my mother in organizing (years worth of clutter) and downsizing before a long distance move. We live in Florida and could only do so much on our trips back and forth and Nancy was the glue that held things together in what was a very overwhelming situation for my mother. Nancy worked closely with our whole family and went above and beyond what we expected. She is kind, patient, positive, respectful, and just an all around pleasure to work with. She was excellent with my mother, who is older and suffers from cognitive loss and she really rolled her sleeves up and got the work done.... helping my mom sort through all her possessions, connecting us to a paper shredding company for destroying years worth of unnecessary paper, helping get appraisals for valuable items before the move, organizing for furniture to be taken by an auction house, making many trips to haul donations to the Salvation Army, shipping items to me in Florida, helping with the movers on moving day... the list goes on. Her help was worth every penny and without her things would not have gone nearly as smoothly. Nancy gave us something I didn't expect during this difficult transition and that was peace of mind. We are extremely grateful, thank you Nancy!!!

She has great compassion for acquisition addicts or those faced with downsizing and determining the future of their belongings. We love working with her!

I've admired, coveted and (fine, okay) stalked NEAT Method's Instagram for the last several years…read more Finally, I caved and admitted it - I needed help. Brooke, Kim and the NEAT Chicago team helped me during a recent move to organize my "big problem areas" (my words, not theirs) - kitchen, bathroom and entry closet. My previous space *looked* organized, but was really very haphazardly stored - suffice to say, like items were often not with like items, and it resulted in a lot of duplication and chaos. I also was coming off of several years of heavy business travel - resulting in a disaster of a toiletry situation. Tiny. Bottles and Samples. Errrrywhere. Kim and her team spent one blissful Friday basically fixing my life: they arrived in the morning, spent some time talking through my needs/wants/life/perceived problem areas, and then they got to work and I went off to handle bridesmaids duties for a friend's wedding. Eight hours later, I came home from the rehearsal dinner to a choir of imaginary angels singing the moment I opened my front door... Everything had a logical and easily accessible home! I could find things again! They removed some duplicates at my request and donated them, which was a helpful time-saver for me, and left some other duplicates (mainly travel toiletries) in a great new system so I can see, access and use the products I have - and never get into the chaos of my previous situation ever again. If you are even remotely considering hiring them (which I'd imagine you are, since you're here and reading this), do it now. It's absolutely worth the investment, and I'm already brainstorming what other areas of my life they could improve - I'll 100% be using them again.

I went from listing to closing on the sale of my condo - with a FULL PRICE OFFER in 21 DAYS!!!…read moreWhile it has been a hot market in many places, condos in my neighborhood have been taking longer to sell so I never would've imagined closing less than a month after I listed the unit for sale. I had an inkling it might sell quickly when the contractors came back to finish up after the unit had been staged and they didn't recognize the place they'd been renovating for months. Then I saw the *spectacular* listing photos and I wanted to buy the place all over again! The buyer loved everything so much they asked if they could buy all the furnishings (everything you see in the photos is from PS Lehman). I know the staging played an outsized role in making this too-good-to-be-true deal actually true! I couldn't be more grateful to the team at PS Lehman - from the very first contact and every step along the way until the unit was empty - they took all the stress out of every step and helped me get a result I never imagined. If you are thinking of hiring them to stage your home - do not delay! I could not recommend them more highly.

PS Lehman staged a North Center loft that I owned and listed. It was small, so I asked the team to…read morehighlight how functional it could be even without a lot of space. Everything about my experience with PS Lehman was fantastic. They promptly replied to all communications. Every member of their team - from my main point of contact to the moving team to the designers - was timely, respectful, and delivered what they had promised. The condo went under contract just one day after their staging, after sitting on the market for 45 days before that. They will be my first call for future staging needs.

From start to finish, they made the staging process simple, professional, and time efficient. I wasn't sure what to expect initially. However, I did have a goal, to sell the home as quickly as possible. Taking our goal into consideration, and listening to our needs, Kate deployed a swift plan of action. Her attention to detail was impeccable. The beautiful accessories Kate used throughout the home, paired with modern furniture and other design elements, brought the home back to life - a creative masterpiece. It truly was a stunning sight to see. I'm happy to report that the home sold quickly! Thank you, Interior Chicago for listening, caring, communicating, executing, and designing the perfect experience for us. If you are looking for a stager/interior designer, I highly recommend Kate and her crew at Interior Chicago.

In addition, she pulled off the near impossible and organized our bathroom, kitchen and bedroom - it no longer takes me 78 mins to find my socks each morning.

Which is why I am here: to yell my praises from digital mountain tops! I was (very generously) gifted an early Christmas present from my mom of a full day/organizing session with M2O... AND IT WAS THE BEST GIFT I EVER RECEIVED! It is truly the gift that keeps on giving. **Hint hint, people- Christmas is less than 3 weeks away, if you are struggling for ideas. ;-) Schae and Britney were spectacular! They rolled into my place like two boss ladies ready to get down to business (but not in a scary way lol)! They put on a fun playlist and took charge, which is what I like and needed. They let me help (obviously not required, but desired on my part to learn) and taught me helpful tips and tricks along the way to maintain the organization. Best of all, they knew how to prioritize my projects in the order that made most sense, and maximized efficiency and my time with them. Not a minute wasted and no stone (aka leftover crap I didn't need anymore) left unturned! AND, like, how helpful and convenient it is that they haul away as many donations for you as they can when they leave?! At the end of the day (literally), I had the best nights sleep that I'd had in years, knowing that there was (finally!) a place for everything and everything in its place. Not only did M2O grant me peace of mind, they motivated me to keep going and see what I can accomplish on my own with what I learned from them. And the productivity levels on all the DIY projects I've set aside over the years are through the roof! My home is, now, finally the way I want and need it to be- it is first and foremost, my sanctuary. Thanks to M2O! But don't worry, I would never claim to be a 'Master Organizer' like them though- there are still some projects that seem just too overwhelming to undertake myself...like where do I even start?! SO, I've already booked my next session with them. Can't wait for Round 2!

Our kitchen and bathrooms were touched by angels…read more We just moved into our new condo and let's just say we had more than we thought the space could handle. There was no way we could have unpacked and organized our kitchen and bathrooms over the next few weeks, which is what their team excelled to do in less than a day.

It's our first time using this kind of service and Mackenzie, Chloe, Brittany, Mary and Melanie have officially spoiled us for all moves to come. Our home brings us so much joy now.
