Tl;dr: Nicoll is AMAZING and clearly knows what she's doing when it comes to professionally…read moreorganizing your home! Read on below if you want more details about the whole process. So...here's the thing about me. I love stuff. I love having a variety of stuff. I love having colorful pens, cute bags, books...you name it, and I probably started collecting some of it at some point. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with wanting to have and own those things. But what I did notice was that the sheer amount of that stuff was really starting to stress me out. Things didn't have a place. My closet and dresser and drawers were stuffed to the brim. I found it difficult to enjoy these fun things I owned because they were mixed in with other things I didn't enjoy or use anymore. I found that I was hanging onto so many items for years "just in case," and the case would never arrive. I'd tried for years with things like the minimalist challenge and reading self help books to try and get rid of things, but I couldn't seem to make a dent. That's where Nicoll came in. My partner helped me find Nicoll on Yelp and connected the two of us together. We had an introductory phone call where she asked me some questions, and I shared my frustrations with getting rid of things and really needing help with it. We ended up making an appointment for a week later where she showed up with her toolkit and bag of bags for donations. We did a little walk around and I shared areas of stress for me and what I wanted out of the space, which was to know where everything was and to know what I owned. After the intro assessment we dove right in. In the next few hours we: ⁃ Took EVERYTHING out of my closet and purged SO much of it. We went piece by piece and she helped ask clarifying questions (when did I last wear it? Do I like it?) and could usually pick up on if I actually liked something. I noticed patterns of how I reacted when I loved something vs when I wasn't sure or was sort of convincing myself. This is an exercise I tried doing before on my own, but when there's someone standing there, who you paid to help you, who's not attached to your stuff....let me tell you, it changes the game. I found myself deciding to donate (and sometimes sell) what must have been at least a third of my closet (clothes, hats, bags, electronics, etc). ⁃ She busted out her label maker and helped organize and label shelves in categories that made sense. Now I know where everything is! ⁃ She packed up all the items I decided to donate into bags and packed them into her car. It ended up being about 15 bags of things which was absolutely wild to me. Nicoll taking these bags out of my house was a game changer, because there have been many times I've decided to donate items that just end up sitting there in bags for months! I noticed that night going to bed that my room felt emptier, in a really good way. It felt calmer, cleaner, and like I could breathe a bit easier. Some people might read this and think that they shouldn't have to hire someone to help them organize. I know for myself that I hit a wall when it came to organizing on my own, and I needed to ask for help. I'm so glad I did, because it changed my life and my relationship with "stuff." I'm confident that Nicoll will be able to help you if you need it, and I cannot recommend her enough!

Meghan really whipped us into shape... in a good way! She really took charge when our movers…read morearrived with our boxes and furniture. She quickly had our entire kitchen, linens, and clothing closets fully functional the day of our move. On top of that, she figured out the optimal location for our items and walked us through everything in detail and adapted to our input as needed. She picked out containers and tools that matched our decorating style and did a great job avoiding plastic items at our request. She's since returned to help us get our home offices optimized for work-from-home and zoom calls. I'm a professional procrastinator with a cluttered desk and Meghan really helped me wrap my head around my own limitations and come up with a plan to keep things organized and tidy, but all within my mental model -- as crazy as that model is. Meghan really listened to us and our ways of doing things and found better methods that would work for us without forcing processes that just wouldn't fit with our personal styles. She doesn't just come organize your stuff for you, she also helps you get more organized so the work done persists for a long time and you don't revert back to old habits as easily. It's a journey for you, not just a task handed off to someone else. Don't waste any more time, just call Meghan and let her help you work and live in a more organized way.

She even offered to help us find anything after she left, since she knew where everything was. A month later we have been able to maintain her system and it's a joy using the kitchen now, I'm so glad I was able to find her!

Vanessa made it possible for me to settle in quickly and calmly. She unpacked everything with care and saved all the packing paper so she could take it to recycling or post it for pickup. She asked thoughtful questions about how I live and how I use my kitchen, bathroom, closet (even when my closet was not yet built out!), dresser, and garage. Because of that, every item ended up in a place that makes sense for my daily routines. And she still let me know that if the system is not working she will come back to tweak! Her systems are outstanding and she and Priya executed it to perfect. The labels she created and the inserts she found to fit my drawers have made my home easy to navigate and easy to maintain. My kitchen has never looked more organized or more beautiful. Friends told me I looked fully moved in within a week, and that was entirely because of her work. Vanessa delivers a level of professionalism and care that is rare.

Underneath the artists' gear were lots of family mementoes and books and notebooks from 20 years of teaching. Over three decades, a work space had turned into a storage space. Clearing this took from 9:30 am till 3 pm for Lori plus two helpers. Of course, I was part of the team too, deciding what was worth keeping. I feel it was worth the expense and effort. I now have a peaceful place to work. I had been worried about being embarrassed by my clutter, but Lori is very matter-of-fact and non-judgmental.

Disappointing and Judgmental Consultation -- Especially Given the Advertised ADHD Expertise…read more Since COVID, our home has gradually become more and more cluttered, and I finally decided it was time to make a change. I was ready to invest in professional help and reached out to More Time For You because Lori Krolik's professional profile listed "ADD/ADHD Expertise." This was particularly important to me because my child has ADHD. I was hoping to find someone who could understand the challenges our family faces and help us develop practical, sustainable organizing systems. I had already spoken with several professional organizers, but my consultation with Lori was unfortunately a very negative experience. When I tried to explain my background, our situation, and what I was hoping to accomplish during our phone consultation, she interrupted me and said she didn't want to hear about that (which I thought it was a little rude). Instead, she immediately asked me to give her a virtual tour of our home. After the tour, rather than discussing possible solutions, she made several comments that I found extremely judgmental and hurtful, including comments along the lines of: * "How did you get here?" * "You said you organized this area (inside the cabinet), but I still see a mess on the countertop." * "You said you're not a hoarder, but I think you are." I also explicitly told her that my child has ADHD and that one of my main goals was to reorganize my child's room. Despite knowing this, Lori suggested that our child's difficulties with organization were partly due to us, as parents, not setting a good example. I found this particularly insensitive. I fully understand that our home needs significant work. That is exactly why I was seeking professional help in the first place. I was prepared to invest the time and money necessary to make meaningful changes. I also understand that not every professional organizer is the right fit for every client. Lori explained that her preferred approach involves gathering items together and sorting them, and that the amount of clutter in our home would make the project difficult for her team. I would have completely respected her decision if she felt our project was not a good fit for her services. What disappointed me was not her assessment of the amount of work involved, but the way she communicated it and her attitude toward me as a potential client. What makes this experience especially disappointing is the information presented on her own website. More Time For You's FAQ specifically addresses how professional organizing can help people with ADD/ADHD, discussing the importance of creating appropriate systems and routines. Her website also states: "We provide the encouraging and non-judgmental voice you need to get the job done." Unfortunately, my consultation felt like the exact opposite of that promise. I sought her services specifically because I believed her advertised experience with ADD/ADHD would mean a greater understanding of the challenges neurodivergent individuals and families may face. Instead, I felt dismissed, criticized, and shamed during a consultation in which I was simply trying to ask for help. I believe people who reach out to professional organizers are often already feeling overwhelmed or embarrassed about the condition of their homes. Seeking help can take courage, and being met with judgment rather than understanding can make that process even more difficult. For neurodivergent individuals and families considering More Time For You, I would strongly encourage you to ask detailed questions about their approach to ADHD, communication style, and how they handle challenging organizing situations before committing to their services. Based on my consultation, I personally would not feel comfortable working with Lori. I hope future clients seeking help receive the empathy and professionalism described on the company's website.

I couldn't be happier with the work Gina and Bee Line Organizing & Design have done for our family…read more As a working mom with four young children and another baby on the way, I really needed our home to function better and feel more manageable. Gina completely reimagined our garage, creating an incredible amount of storage and function in a relatively small space. She also transformed the kitchen and pantry, reorganizing and relocating everything so the spaces make sense, adding beautiful contact paper and thoughtful details, and somehow creating room we didn't even know we had. She also found smart ways to add storage throughout the children's spaces, including floating shelves and other solutions that feel intentional and beautiful. What I appreciate most is that Gina doesn't just organize, she looks at how our family actually lives and creates systems around that. Everything feels calmer, more functional and ready for this next chapter with our new baby. We are so happy with everything she's done.

I contacted several organizers and Chudo offered good communication and a fair price. Within 48 hours, they sent a team of two for 6 hours. I chose this window (their "Starter Package") for budget reasons, despite the clear expectation that it might only be enough time to finish one space and possibly get started on the second. Like a whirlwind, they showed up on schedule and quickly got to work setting up their folding tables. They helped me methodically address the chaos by assigning me tasks one table at a time, which broke things up and made it feel manageable. As expected, the time frame was not enough to finish both spaces, but instead of cutting things short or requesting to bump up the cost, they expertly managed the time, accomplishing about 90% of everything and setting me up for success with the rest. They left the staging area looking like they were never there, and even hauled away many bags of donations. It is such a relief to have a usable spare room and organized shed, well worth the money!

I was stalled out on going through garage and holiday boxes but was able to do it with Lisa's help today. And I'm not exaggerating about getting ten times the results. There's no way I could stay on task for 3 or 4 hours working alone. But the time flies by when we're working together. And guess what? Lisa takes all your donations when she leaves!!! How's that for the cherry on top?! Lisa gets my highest recommendation.

Though I knew we needed to organize our home, just looking at everything became increasingly overwhelming. I reached out to Bee Organized and Lisa got back to me fairly quickly. Getting on her schedule was a pretty straight forward process after speaking over the phone about what we needed. We booked an 8 hour day with Lisa and she did an incredible job helping us pack up items that weren't ours, declutter items that we didn't need, and sort through paperwork that wasn't touched in many years. What Lisa did in 8 hours would have taken us SO many years. Just with Lisa going through all the items in our home office, we were able to make the space feel more like our own + gained some empty cabinets + had items reorganized in ways I had not imagined. She even helped drop off bags of donations! Some things are worth paying for if it impacts your mental health and this is definitely one of those things. We're looking forward to having Lisa back to help with our garage that is in dire need of assistance!
