My husband and I moved into our new dream home Valentine's Day and like most people we prioritized unpacking and organizing the areas of our home we spend most time in. Needless to say our three car garage became a three car storage space for my small pickleball business and his many many many hobbies. Enter Ready Set Organize founded by Sarah and her amazing team. In just under 7 hours they pulled every thing from our garage, worked with us to sort, purge, give away, donate and then reorganized and returned what remained to the most ideal places. Not a single tool, pickleball, diving wetsuit, climbing rope, surf leash, dog toy, or memorabilia was overlooked or left in a place that didn't make sense. For more than 6 years we've been wanting to downsize and organize our garage chaos and it seems surreal this was possible in less than a full day. We cannot speak highly enough of the enthusiasm of the team, the respect they had for our process of letting go of some things and just general care in our space. If you're considering a team for your own home - this is the team to work with. And if you're on the fence about hiring someone - take our word for it - waiting all these years was way too long. The work and result was priceless. read more

I cannot recommend this team highly enough. From the very first consultation, they brought a sense of calm and clarity to what felt like an overwhelming project. What sets them apart is their ability to create systems that aren't just aesthetically pleasing, but truly functional and sustainable. They didn't just move things around; they listened to how our family actually uses the space and designed a customized flow that works for our daily life. Why they deserve 5 stars: * Professionalism: They arrived on time, stayed focused, and managed the entire process with incredible efficiency. * Attention to Detail: Every drawer, shelf, and container was labeled and organized with precision. * Judgment-Free Approach: They made the decluttering process feel empowering rather than stressful. If you are looking to reclaim your space and your peace of mind, do not hesitate to hire them. It is worth every penny! read more

Oh man! Where to begin! We just finished the most amazing day of making sense out of our crazy bomb of a garage! I truly can't believe the transformation that Sarah and her amazing team at Ready Set Organize made happen in just a half day. The team members were just incredible. Everyone was so kind and understanding about how challenging it is for me to part with things. Man I had A LOT of things. They made it as easy as could be and got so much cleaning, sorting, donating and disposing done. Truly incredible people. The lightness I feel from having that space decluttered and organized is hard to overstate. Thank you so much Steph, Kat, Elisa, Mike, Natalia and Lauren!! And a huge thank you to Sarah for inspiring us to get this done. What a great feeling! read more

Stephanie, Stacy, Kat, and Tina came by and organized my incredibly messy garage in ONE DAY! We could barely walk through it and now there is room for a car to park inside. I could not believe how efficient and thorough they were, and they were amazing and understanding our needs and being thoughtful with our belongings. Thank you so much to the team!! read more

After nagging my husband for over a year to clean our garage, I decided to call Ready Set Organize for help. Sarah was great and understood what we needed and the team that she sent out were beyond what we could have hoped for. They were able to take a packed garage and turn it into a beautifully organized space where I can finally park my car! Everything makes sense, is clearly marked and they helped us donate a lot of stuff that we didn't need. You guys probably saved a marriage! LOL! Thanks again!!! read more

The organizers sent to my House were exceptional. They were very professional and work like a well oiled machine. Due to a shoulder injury, I was unable to help and they were so respectful. Including me every step of the way as I declutter my condo. I was so impressed. I hired them back the following week. I would hire them in a minute if I need this type of service again. They are miracle workers. read more

You know that feeling after a great haircut when you can't stop playing with your hair and checking yourself out in the mirror? That's exactly how you'll feel after the RSO girls organize your space. You'll find yourself opening drawers and cabinets just to admire the results! They helped us with our kitchen, laundry room, dining room, bedrooms, and completely transformed one closet into a children's toy room. It's been a couple of weeks now, and we've been able to maintain a clean and organized space thanks to the clever systems they implemented. Even my almost 4-year-old is putting things away where they belong, which has been a game changer. The experience has been transformative, lifting a huge weight off my shoulders. It's wonderful because they come prepared with products to make your stuff look better than ever. Sarah, Steph (closet master), Kat, Robyn, Stacey, Nicole, and Holly were all amazing. I am incredibly thankful for the hard work of these ladies in bringing peace to our home. read more

When moving in my 60's got to be overwhelming, I reached out to Sarah for cost and availability. She sent a team of 2 - who worked harder and smarter than most teams of 4! Kat and Jacquiln were sweet and focused on their tasks. I would gladly use them again and will recommend them to everyone. read more

Our laundry room was a complete mess--cluttered, disorganized, and a constant source of stress, especially since we manage a 2-unit rental business, generating a ton of linens and dirty laundry. The team came in with a friendly, non-judgmental attitude and helped us create a system that actually works for our family and our rental business. The hardest part was seeing the "before" pictures--honestly, it's a bit embarrassing to realize what we had been living with! I can't recommend them enough if you're looking to bring order and peace to any part of your home or business. read more

Recently, I hired Ready Set Organize to declutter a couple of rooms in our home, and I am DELIGHTED with the results! The interior of our home had begun to look a bit like a landfill, and I couldn't see any fast way of decluttering it ourselves. So I asked four LLMs (Gemini, ChatGPT, Grok, and Claude) what the top decluttering companies are in San Diego County. Each of them included Ready Set Organize in their list of recommendations. So I arranged a consultation with Sarah Dunn, the owner of the company. She came by the house and took a tour. Later, she sent me price and time estimates for each room. I told her that I wanted to start with my bedroom and bathroom. So she dispatched an organizer called Kyle to my home a couple of days later. He was punctual and very friendly. And I was staggered by how fast he was! He got the job done in about four hours, even though Sarah had estimated it would take six! In addition to removing all the junk, including the heavy stuff, he dismantled and removed the shelving in my closet, vacuumed the carpet, and dusted off all the remaining furniture. I can hardly believe it's the same room. It feels like a giant weight has been lifted off my chest. I definitely intend to rehire Ready Set Organize to declutter the rest of the house and recommend them to anyone who needs to get their home decluttered fast. read more

10/10 recommend! The 'Ready, Set, Organize' team is pure MAGIC! Sarah called us within MINUTES of us submitting our request, which set the tone for their fantastic service. The organizers (Stephanie, Sierra, Bella, Kat, and Flavia) were not only incredibly skilled and efficient but also so warm and fun- it felt like having friends transform our home. They turned our garage, kitchen, and closets into beautifully organized, functional spaces we can actually enjoy. I can't stop opening doors just to admire their work! If you're even thinking about hiring an organizing company, stop searching and book them now. We will absolutely be using their services again! I could not recommend them enough!! read more

We now call them "ready set OMG" because that was the text my husband sent after he stopped by to check in on how my closet re-org was going. I'm OBSESSED with Ready Set Organize - completely worth the expense and I and am so thankful to Steph and Bianca for getting my closet into shape!! This was a transformative experience and I honestly can't rave enough about the service. My husband had the brilliant idea of gifting me a full day closet organization for Christmas this year and it was the most thoughtful and priceless gift. Steph and Bianca were so sweet and so so so helpful from the second they arrived. They ended up having enough time to organize a couple of the other closets too which was full-circle with how we organized my stuff, my husbands, and the living room closet we share together. They were also both sooooo sweet with my German Shepherd Jackson who was around for a bit towards the end and gave him lots of love and attention. I think Jackson wants to join Sarah's team because he tried to help a couple times haha. read more

Wonderful experience with this small, woman owned business! I was hesitant in the beginning, but decided to take the leap and request a free consultation. Sarah was quick to respond and so communicative. I left the consult feeling so hopeful and positive about how my home will be transformed. Sarah sent Flavia and her team to organize my primary suite and guest bedroom/work room. I had moved to this place almost a year ago, and still had some moving boxes in the main bedroom, and things were not organized in a well thought out manner. Flavia and her team were so thorough, efficient, thoughtful, and respectful. They listened to my concerns and involved me in the process. They are masters at finding spaces for everything. I never knew the power of labels until they've placed labeled bins everywhere. My husband, who had been skeptical of organizing services, was so impressed when he came home and saw the transformation. He admitted that we could never achieve this level of organization even if we took dedicated time off to organize. I am not an organized person, but it has been almost two months now and their system still works. Sometimes I let things build up and get a bit disorganized again, but it is now easy to tidy up because everything has its own place. I am so thankful. If we ever move again, I would look to them for unpacking services because they will get the house organized right the first time! Highly highly recommend. read more

Nicole was extremely knowledgeable about organization. She was prompt, friendly, professional, quick, and considerate of my choices of what to keep, donate, and dispose of. She even labeled each container for easy access. I was extremely impressed with the results. I would recommend Ready Set Orignize to get the job done in an orderly manner. read more

I requested assistance for organizing my room, I moved from a condo in little italy with ample space to a small room in PB that is actually a den. Sarah connected me with Flavia who was absolutely amazing! The communication was on point and the quality of service was tip top! I did need organizers and I ended up purging a lot of items with Flavias help. I had to leave on a trip that night so they were extra helpful in making sure I could have it done before and I am not going to get home to a tidy space, thank you for maximizing my space I am so happy with the work I am going to sleep so well tonight with the peace of mind that my space is so well organized. I will definitely use the services again, the value is like no other. read more

RSO seriously saved my life today. I moved from a 1900 sqft home with a ton of extraneous items to a 1000 sqft apartment. I was stressing for months about what I was going to do in a smaller space. Sarah was incredibly responsive and somehow answered my insane Sunday 11PM text message immediately. She set up an appointment with her team to come over ASAP. Sarah, Mia and Nicole came over and organized every room for me and threw away and donated enough stuff to make an entire other living space. They were so sweet and understanding, my 3 moms for the day. Sarah even brought muffins that she baked herself :') She is a total sweetheart and cares deeply for her clients. It was a huge undertaking that would've taken me months. While the team was here I was at work and in meetings for most of the day and they took care of everything with very minimal input from me. They saved me so much mental and physical energy, and I'm so grateful for their care and responsiveness. I feel really taken care of and I would call them again immediately if my hoarder tendencies ever get out of control. I highly recommend RSO!!! read more

I had a wonderful experience with Sarah and her team. It was so quick and efficient and everyone was so kind. Flavia and Nicole were so awesome and totally made me feel at ease and took so much stress off my plate during my move. I cannot recommend them enough.

I just had my life changed in 7 hours and 20 min. I have put off organizing/ declutterring my childhood bedroom for about 6 years if not longer. I was stuck in the cycle of saying "I'm gonna do it, I'll get it done, I just need a better weekend, etc." FOR YEARS. I decided that I work best with solid deadlines and under pressure, so that's when I looked up declutterring services near me. What stood out to me in the reviews for Ready Set Organize was that other people were embarrassed about bringing someone into their space, but experienced zero judgment while working with them. I also liked the quote "if you are even considering hiring someone to help you declutter DO IT. It is so worth it." And that was my experience as well. Nicole came in, got to work immediately, kept the momentum going while still acknowledging the emotional labor I was taking on. I was also surprised at the amount of work Nicole did on her own. I felt like I wasn't helping enough but then I realized I guess that's the whole point of hiring a professional! I truly feel the biggest weight lifted from having this done. Thank you Ready Set Organize! You are absolutely amazing! read more

I contacted them regarding what I considered a borderline hoarding situation. Sarah responded right away and was so sweet and understanding. Within a few days I went from chaos to a place that I don't shy away to be in. Holly (my organizer) was so kind and efficient. She understood the shame I felt and was so so reassuring. She have tips on organizing as she helped me. I have to say though, it's the way I was treated through the whole process. I wish I would have been in touch with them sooner. I would recommend anyone who is just "thinking" about getting an organizer, take the leap. (I promise you won't regret it. I was embarrassed to show pics , but what the heck, here are some. read more

She was extremely responsive and communicative throughout the process, and did an incredible job transforming the space into a place that feels really comfortable and useful.

Sarah and team made our garage clean out and organization feel easy and not stressful! We have been dreading this task for years but finally hired professionals and I'm so glad we did! Years of wind and water sport gear, kids stuff, beach toys, tools and sentimental items now so organized our garage echoes! We could not have done this without them and certainly not in 1 day. Worth every penny. Their team is so friendly and their junk hauler contact is great too. We're already thinking of other projects in our house to have them take on next. 1000% recommend! read more

I can't recommend Sarah and her team more!! We started with our Kitchen and Pantry and have had her back to organize each room in our house. It has not only transformed the house, but the way we live. The true challenge was our boys' bedrooms. They have never been cleaner or more organized. This isn't just a service, it's an investment! Sarah is professional, personable and talented as is her entire team! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Sarah & her Ready, Set, Organize team - specifically Kat, Holly, Kyle and Bella. I've employed their help twice now - once to pack up our belongings and a second time to unpack and organize. Most recently, the incredible team mentioned unpacked and organized my house after a move. I walked out of my house completely overwhelmed with boxes everywhere and came home to an organized, peaceful and tranquil home. The four of them placed things in each of the rooms where they made sense, without asking for much direction. I also loved how they displayed some of our belongings in the built ins we have. It immediately made our home feel more lived in, but still streamlined. If you are in need of home organizing, packing or unpacking, I would highly recommend Sarah & her team. Sarah is very client focused and makes sure you are happy with the final product, on top of just being a very sweet person. read more

Beyond my expectations! We have just moved back into our newly renovated home in Mt Soledad area of La Jolla. Photos of the amazing job performed by Sarah and her team. They unpacked all boxes and appropriately installed those items throughout the home. Absolutely gorgeous job. Everything was located in a logical space. My wife recommended I utilize the team to attack my 'man cave / garage'. Reluctantly I gave in ... after all that area is 'my sacred space with my stuff.' OMG... "magic"! I was asked politely "to be available for questions... otherwise... get lost." I now have being utilized my metal storage cabinets... a work area with a computer and printer shared with 2 cars, washer and dryer. A garage refrigerator fondly named 'big red'. Luggage is appropriately stowed, paper towels and TP is in its area. Laundry area is functional. I could not be more pleased. To wrap things up Jose came by early the following morning to pick up quite a bit of 'residual' that really needed to "go away." I can't help but smile when I enter the garage. Thank each of you for your sensitivity and kindness organizing my personal space and utility room. G2 read more

From the first interaction, my experience with Sarah was nothing short of exceptional. She was understanding, detail-oriented, and incredibly patient with my goals and concerns. Sarah was upfront and transparent about every aspect of her service, yet she never pressured me; she gave me ample time to review the contract, read more reviews, and ask additional questions. Her responsiveness, kindness, and clarity truly reassured me that I was making the right decision. When Sarah and her team arrived, they brought an infectious energy and positivity that set the tone for the whole process. They were punctual and came fully prepared with labels, bags, and all the tools they needed. Their focus and attention to detail helped me keep my momentum and stay engaged in the organizing process, even when I found myself stepping in and out of the room. They were exceptional listeners, carefully considering my thoughts on each item and working efficiently to find the best organizational systems based on how my mind works. They truly adapted to my preferences, making suggestions when I asked and offering tips on how to maintain the newly organized space in the future. They also understood that letting go of items can be a challenge for me, and their patient and supportive approach made the process much easier. One of the organizers, especially detailed in sorting through my kitchen and camping items, intuitively knew when to ask for my input and when to continue on. This allowed me to engage with the process at my own pace. Even when I gave a quick "no," they understood whether it meant "keep" or "discard," making me feel incredibly understood and supported. It was like working with close friends or even family members who genuinely cared about my comfort and goals. Thanks to their help, I was able to clear out years of excess belongings, identify items that could be sold or donated, and categorize the things I wanted to keep but didn't immediately need. The new organization system they implemented has already saved me time in my day-to-day routines and while traveling, and I can see this benefit growing as I continue fine-tuning on my own. I no longer feel overwhelmed by my space; instead, I feel inspired to maintain it. I would not hesitate to hire Sarah and her team again, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services. Their professionalism, empathy, and expertise have made a lasting positive impact on my home and daily life. read more

Quality of service exceeded my expectations. Decluttered my house and my mind for that matter. Would highly recommend!

Our garage was ready to be on a makeover show. It had gotten so cluttered that I refused to enter, because it made me SO MAD that it was such a disaster. And with a 3 year old and a 4 year old, it would've taken us YEARS to get through it ourselves (if my husband and I even could without killing eachother, lol). It actually never occurred to me that we could hire someone to do this, until a friend of mine mentioned that she had also hired RSO, and was so happy about it Sarah and her crew of three spent 6 hours taking our bonkers garage and turning it into usable, livable space. It was an amazing experience - definitely a luxury, but reasonably priced enough that I definitely plan to hire them back for multiple smaller projects. They were efficient, super-friendly and communicative, and compassionate. I couldn't ask for a better experience. read more

My family of 4 is preparing to stage and list our home for sale with less than a week to prepare. My husband and I both work full time while raising 2 young children.

I highly recommend their service! The peace of mind is worth hiring talented professionals like Ready Set Go. read more

I DIDN'T KNOW GETTING ORGANIZED COULD UP-LEVEL HOW I FEEL ABOUT MYSELF!! I am blown away, honestly. Sara came and TRANSFORMED our closet, bedroom dressers-- our entire clothing situation-- which was a total mess before she came. In a matter of hours, she had completely UPGRADED the entire interface of our closet & clothing organization. And not only did it look STUNNING, but it made me feel like a new person. Like someone who deserves to live surrounded by ease & beauty. I was shocked, not only how beautiful my space was now, but how much better I felt. About myself. Wowwww. This was what I needed-- and I had no idea how much I needed it until Sara worked her magic. Now I can't imagine living any other way! I cannot recommend Sara & her team enough!! read more

This is by far the MOST EXCEPTIONAL organizing company ever; they have helped me transform a guest bedroom, (in only 6 hours!) in July 2022. In Summer 2023, they help me purge my garage after having all my interior floors done, (which basically meant a four bedroom houseful of stuff was packed and in the garage). They help me unpack and purge/organize about 9 years worth of stuff in only a couple days. In August 2023, they help me DECORATE and ORGANIZE my daughter's bedroom, which was a surprise for her 11th birthday, in one day. They all have an eye for aesthetics and design. These women are absolutely exceptional and so talented!! This review is much overdue, but wanted to commend their incredible work. Currently, I am working to transition my mom into a retirement home, and I am literally contacting them now to help move my step dad's prized possessions/office into his retirement home & have it set up. I would trust his stuff ONLY to this company! Please give yourself tremendous relief and hire 'Ready, Set, Organize'. They are absolutely incredible and lifesavers!!! Sincerely, Kim read more

It was fantastic having Ready Set Organize come help me get both my kitchen and my garage organized! The task felt so daunting by myself, and we got an incredible amount accomplished in just two days. The way we organized everything is such that it is easy for me to maintain, too - it's not like things will get messy in a year. It's a sustainable solution to my organization troubles! Such a good investment in peace in my home. read more

Sarah from Ready. Set. Organize. is basically a kitchen whisperer. Our HQ kitchen went from chaos to Pinterest worthy in record time. If kitchens could smile, ours would be beaming thanks to her.

If you need a pro who can tackle clutter and make it look easy, Sarah's your person. 10/10 would reorganize again! read more

Sarah was on the East Coast visiting family and came to take a fitness class at a small studio that I own. We got to talking about what she did for a living, and I opened the door (half joking) to my office to show her a great example of someone in dire need of her expertise. While on her VACATION, she agreed to take on the job, went back to her family's place to shower and was back 2 hours later. Over the course of the next few days, I not only learned how efficient, effective, focused and talented she is, but had the wonderful opportunity to get to know her a bit as well. Letting someone into your space, particularly when it's in disarray, can be a bit of a vulnerable experience. Sarah was empathetic, non-judgmental and made me feel like she was on my team, wanting all the instant *and* long-term benefits of a more organized space for me and for the sake of my bigger-picture goals. She has great interpersonal intelligence and such a friendly demeanor. She easily toggles between focused momentum and conversational/collaborative progress, all the while keeping me on task in a respectful and inspiring way. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does and finds meaning in both the process and the outcome .I would work with her on all of my work/home spaces if I could! She is receptive and shares a lot of her knowledge throughout the process in ways that I know I'll implement elsewhere going forward! Sarah is more than a pleasure to work with, and I can't recommend her or the value of her services enough. I would trust her with any project, regardless of scope. She is the kind of professional (and person) you keep close for the long haul, and you'll want her involvement in many areas once you've experienced her results. She's the best. So seriously, just go Get it Dunn! read more

This review is a long time coming, but I cannot say enough amazing things about Sarah and her stellar team of ladies. I have always wanted to hire someone to help me organize my home, but was embarrassed and overwhelmed at the idea of letting someone in to my personal space to help. I gave in when I was pregnant and overwhelmed with where to start decluttering prior to our baby's arrival. I reached out to Sarah for a consultation to first do my garage. She and her team came in, took everything out, helped sort, organize, purge and donate. These ladies work HARD and efficiently and are very helpful in helping you decide what to keep / donate. The garage (which would have taken me days), took them mere hours. As soon as it was done I immediately booked them to come back and help with my kitchen, pantry, laundry and living spaces. I cannot recommend Sarah and her team enough. They helped me create spaces & homes for things, so it was easier to put items away. They labeled everything so its easy to find. They took time to look at what I had, took my input, and helped suggest different organizing plans, or how to better utilize my space. 100% will utilize Sarah again, and will happily refer her to anyone and everyone I know! read more
