This is my second time using this company. They organized my garage when I moved into my house and…read morenow I'm moving out -5 weeks post-op from a hip surgery- so I'm not able to do much if anything at all. They came in and did EVERYTHING in 2 sessions (4 hours each). Neatly and efficiently packed up my whole house, labels and all. Got rid of/donated and organized all my stuff during the process. The movers will have a very easy day thanks to them!

There aren't enough amazing words to say about Liz and her team. We moved in to a new house and I…read morewas confident that I had purged our pantry and our garage before the move, although they needed to be organized. First, the pantry. Liz came in with Lisa and organized my pantry and kitchen. Not only did they help me sort through and discard FOUR bags of unnecessary items, but they left my pantry and kitchen so clean and organized that I thought I wanted to sleep in there! A few weeks later, we had them come and organize our garage. Our garage was the catch-all space for all things move-related, on top of our usual stuff. Every time I went in there, I got anxiety looking at all the stuff that needed to be unpacked and organized. Additionally, my husband's biggest goals were to (1) get his brand new tool chests organized and (2) simply be able to park his car in there. At the end of the very long and hot day of organizing, Liz and her team were able to organize EVERYTHING in our garage. They even sorted through all my husband's hardware (nails, nuts, bolts) and organized them into containers within his tool chest. Could I have organized my garage myself? I mean, yeah, probably. But here's how it usually goes: the two of us (my husband and I) would be able to do one section, not be able to go through *every item* and ask ourselves if we truly use it or not, NOT be able to really remove ourselves enough to categorize them properly, then we realize we need more bins, so we have to go out and get some more. We either procrastinate until tomorrow... or the next weekend... or the following month... Liz and her team already have ALL the necessary organizational items with them. They know the process because they've done this a thousand times! It is NOT possible to get this done without this team. The best part about having everything organized in clear bins is knowing exactly what we have and where we have it. It sounds dramatic, but I think it's accurate to say that having everything organized is life-changing. No longer will we have to second guess what we have or where to find it, only to purchase a duplicate (or gulp, a triplicate) of it, but we can access it easily... and most importantly, we can keep up with the organization. I think that organization MUST be sustainable in order for it to work. Even now, months later, my daughter and several friends know where to get snacks in the pantry or items in the garage, and they know that they can put it all back easily if needed. I cannot recommend Coastal Organizing Company more. Just absolutely fantastic!

AMAZING!!!! Simply an amazing company and crew!…read more Liz (the owner) and her team (Elissa, Leslie & Jordan) that worked on my friend's place are great!! They took his apt. - that was filled with over 250 moving boxes - and made it a completely organized and simply wonderful. Helped my friend purge A LOT of unnecessary and duplicate/triplicate items. In turn, those items were donated to a great non-profit called Mercy House. It was a win-win for everyone. Elissa, Leslie and Jordan were so patient and understanding and helped create an organizational system that is easy to follow/maintain. Moving is hard enough without the stress of having to get rid of years of stuff and personal items.

We greatly appreciate it!!!! ~ Lenore & Robert

I highly recommend Andrea Steele if you're looking for a professional organizer…read more When we moved back into our home nine years ago after a full remodel, we still had our three children living with us. Fast forward to last year, when they had all moved out on their own, and our garage had become the holding place for years of accumulated belongings from both us and our kids. My husband had made some progress over time, but it was still overwhelming. I found Andrea on Yelp and was impressed from the beginning. She was straightforward about her pricing, responsive, and willing to work on a Saturday. While most organizers estimated this project would take two days, Andrea was confident she could get it done in about seven hours with her crew of 4--and she did. What I appreciated most was her approach. She's very kind, but she's also efficient and focused. She helped us shift our mindset before we even started, which was important because this project required a significant edit of what we owned. Her guidance made it much easier for both my husband and me to make decisions and stay on track. Andrea also coordinated a company to remove the items we no longer wanted. They sort, donate, and resell whenever possible, which gave us peace of mind knowing our belongings wouldn't simply end up in a landfill. The results were remarkable. The garage is functional, organized, and honestly feels like an entirely new space. We had family and friends over for Father's Day, and everyone got a tour of the garage, that's how excited we were about the transformation. Andrea has a real talent for this work. She brings the perfect combination of practicality, encouragement, and organization. Most importantly, she never makes you feel judged about how much stuff you've accumulated over the years. She simply helps you create a better way forward.

She helped create organizing systems and storage solutions that actually made sense for our space and our family. She asked lots of thoughtful questions to understand how I naturally organize things, what would be realistic to maintain, and how we actually use the room day to day. I also really appreciated that she considered both my style and my kids' personalities when choosing how to organize everything. Judy is incredibly friendly, easy to talk to, and just fun to work with. Organizing alongside her never felt overwhelming, it was actually so enjoyable! She has such a great eye for detail and came up with ideas I never would have thought of on my own. I'm already hoping to hire her again!

I highly recommend Judy for all of your organizing needs! I found her through a local community…read moregroup and have always wanted to reach out and ask for her services. But, my husband kept telling me "you're already so organized" so I didn't reach out for the longest time. Finally, I was in over my head with my late mom's belongings and I told him, that's it! I'm calling Judy. She has changed our lives, for the better. Systems I put in place would work for a few weeks and then go away. Now, systems she put in place for us, still exist, a half year later and are going strong. She's helped organize our garage and kitchen so far, and I find that consistently, we are able to put things away that belong in those spaces. I mean this when I say it, I cannot wait to bring Judy back to organize every last corner of my home. Her systems work. It makes sense. And it takes the weight off your shoulders. Reach out to her. You cannot find a more genuine, kind hearted, thoughtful and smart organizer, to work beside you to get your organizing hopes and dreams to come true.

So, when she told me about her business rEvolution I was anxious to try it out. After all, who doesn't need help organizing a room or garage. I had collected years of records related to various businesses and had "planned" to put them in some order. Of course, years went by and the piles and drawers became fuller. Gabi filed everything in a logical order over two several hour periods. More importantly, using her good judgment, she was able to clear out things no longer needed. She asked appropriate questions to make sure that nothing important was discarded. On top of that, she is polite, friendly and eager to work with your schedule. If you have been putting this project off and are finally ready to move forward, I think you will be very happy with rEvolution's services.

On Day 1, Laura came; she's great--super-organized, very efficient and good company too! On Day 2, Laura came back & was joined by Jenny, another great organizer who is also very pleasant to work with and wonderfully organized & efficient. These two ladies are absolute gems! They both worked hard & steadily, and even managed to keep *me* on task (no small feat!). I am so very pleased with how much we got done in just two half-days. Laura & Jenny even took a bunch of stuff away to be donated to various places, which helped me out a lot, because I'm not able to do much bending or lifting. My experience with Transform Your Space was entirely positive, and I intend to use them again when it's time to do the actual move. Special thanks to Laura & Jenny, and kudos to Alice for hiring such great organizers!

And, her special crew made the clean up (especially clearing plates) silently effortless, allowing us to continue enjoying our guests & not worry about the stressful details. A complete cleanup was handled with precision, too. All food put away, dishes washed and floors vacuumed. Merely heading to bed after the last guests left was made possible by this organized team. Overall, Sara cultivated a finished product that was beyond our expectations, delivering an amazingly unforgettable experience for our guests.

They have been professional, flexible, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. I received a follow-up from my inquiry very quickly, we met for an assessment, and it was to easy to handle the payment for their services. I was a bit anxious (haha, that's an understatement- I was freakin' out!) about letting people "see behind the curtain" but they made me feel incredibly at ease and didn't make me feel judged for years of clothing build-up and lack of organization. The best part was how self-sufficient and autonomous the team was, which made all the difference for me trying to juggle a demanding job and childcare, etc. The team will work with YOU to understand how you function in your space- and then make sure that whatever system is put in place supports your usual routine!! Here's the key: they do this so the work they do can be easily maintained going forward. This is an investment into your home, your wellness, your sanity, your relationship... and so much more! We're already booking I-deal-lifestyle for the next project - our Kitchen! My only regret is having not called them sooner. In the meantime, I will be diving into Marla's book, The Clutter Remedy, to be reminded of what I've learned so far, and to keep up my beautiful and organized space. I've only read the first chapter and I am already just so happy that I invested into myself. Thank you Marla + Team at I-deal-lifestyle!

(SINCE POSTING THIS REVIEW I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS CALLS & TEXTS FROM MARLA THAT ARE HARASSING &…read moreTHREATENING, EVEN CALLING MY EMPLOYER) I used Marla and felt the job and talent was oversold. Marla is quick to brag about unrelated job credentials. I should of known then. I have used professional organizers before and was very happy. Never a problem! *Further, I am insulted buy her comments & insinuations after posting this review which are absurd and lame excuses. No one babysat my teenage son or my little girl! And for 30 hrs?! Really? This woman is nuts! Even one of her workers told me she was crazy!) My nanny and my other hired workers witnessed her poor service and commented on it every time. Yes, MY NANNY who was full time -child care for my daughter was always present- Not strangers I hired to unpack & organize my home. Absurd! The college girls chose to play with my daughter. It wasn't anything I asked for or preferred. I hired them for a specific job totally unrelated to my kids- what an insult to suggest otherwise. And, I did assist when asked- wasn't sickly or absent- just exhausted after this drama experience. *Based on Yelp reviews I decided to try Marla for a 2 bed, 1000 sq ft move into a 3 bed, 3 bath 1700 sq ft brand new, high-end gated community home 15 miles away. The job was to pack my home, move me into the new home, unpack and organize my new home so that I could be moved in quickly and not interrupt my work schedule. Marla assured me they were trained and could do this seamlessly without having me manage the job or interfere with their work. It was all clear and agreed prior to hiring Marla. No surprises on my end. I am a busy, professional single mom so I had no issue paying for and hiring a professional to make my life easier. **I wasn't seeking a cheap solution rather a much needed professional service. I have no problem paying for quality. If I was looking for budget I would of hired the desperate men in front of Home Depot! Marla was never present and although her team is very nice, they are NOT professionally trained organizers. Her team is just young college kids who did pack my house quickly... That was great but NOT organizational pros. Proof is in the photos I will attach to this review. (Somehow photos were taken off Yelp?! That's suspicious!) they just showed lack of organization- nothing more. Marla suggested I use her team to actually move instead of a moving company. The move was to be expected with their limited moving experience however I was still satisfied. Didn't feel money was wasted. I saw the labor and effort however it was nothing to refer or brag about. Things changed once I moved into the new home. It was agreed to unpack my home and make my home look very neat & organized. Marla bragged of feng shui experience and other ideas I liked. Her team packed my home so I assumed by the labeled boxes they would know where things basically belong... Being a professional organizing company. Basically unpacking consisted of just opening boxes putting items alla wherever, and leaving piles of boxes and trash in front of the home. I had to re-do the unpacking and organizing that was done. Even a simple linen closet is linens taken straight from the box, not refolded. Looked like they were flung onto the shelves. My kitchen was unpacked by the nicest girl but items were not well thought out as they were put away so the flow of the kitchen is totally off. Things were unpacked without any thought. No order. The crew claims they worked hard and the house didn't have enough space however this is a much larger home then from where I moved- double in size in an upscale gated community. My prior home was not cluttered and was a much smaller space. I had very little stored in garage so the excuses were not adding up. I understand moving is challenging but this was a job going downhill quickly. The unpacking and organizing was not high quality at all. My new home was left with boxes still in the garage pilled high and furniture never made it to the correct rooms. After 2 days of unpacking with Marla's company I decided to cancel the rest of the work. I just wanted them out! I feel after nearly $2000. That this was absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional and I was being duped. Over promised, over sold and under delivered. I didn't want to continue paying them for sloppy work although would have continued to pay them to finish the job if they were worth it. A professional moving company would of been less expensive and would of done the same quality of work or better...I was looking for ORGANIZATION & QUALITY and willing to pay for it. Since Marla I hired a real certified company and the difference was monumental
