Simply Organized by Kari Jane

Kari and her team did a fantastic job organizing and purging my pantry and five closets in my home…read more They were professional, communicative, thorough, and organized. They accomplished what would have taken me weeks and my sanity if I tried to do this myself. One of the best investments I've made for my home.

Just too much crap to deal with that I kept putting off. The predatory pricing of my storage company (90% increase in 2 years!) angered me so much I started doing research for getting help with cleaning out my garage so I could move my storage items into it. Looking on the web, Kari Jane's Simply Organized was so highly rated, I felt confident that she could help. By wanting to pay a good service to help me rather than an out of control storage company month after month after month, I figured I had a good budget to work. Kari was very warm and professional and confident she could help me. After describing my situation and sending photos, she scheduled me promptly. She came over with 2 enthusiastic and hard working staffers and they got to work right away. Very diligent and organized and they made enormous progress. By the mid-day, the garage was completely cleared out. I thought it would take 2 or 3 days at least as I had a ton of crap. They diligently removed everything, sorted it out and categorized what could be tossed, or recycled or donated or would stay. And they diligently carried away several cars worth of donations at the end. The items I kept were put in nice transparent cases with clear labels, and there was a lot of room to move my storage in. It is such an enormous relief to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I highly recommend Kari Jane and her staff and services. Completely worth it! Thank you so much!

My siblings and I had been stressed and overwhelmed by our mom's hoarding for years, but the…read moresituation always felt way too big for us to handle. After she was hospitalized and moved into a skilled nursing facility, I suddenly needed to end her lease and completely clear out her apartment while also dealing with a million other things on her behalf. I knew I needed more than just a junk removal or moving company. I specifically wanted a senior move manager who could coordinate the sorting, donations, hauling, moving, and storage, because the thought of finding and managing all of those vendors myself was overwhelming. I found A Clear Path through the NASMM website and was immediately impressed that they were A+ Accredited. Their website also really resonated with me because they clearly understood the emotional side of hoarding and approached these situations with compassion. Mary reached out very quickly after I submitted my project details, and I was able to schedule a Zoom consultation for the next day through their online scheduling system. She was kind, responsive, and upfront that a project of this size would be costly. After our consultation, she emailed me a detailed proposal with the full price breakdown, so I knew exactly what to expect before moving forward. Communication was fast and easy over email, and everything from scheduling the consultation to paying the invoice online felt organized and streamlined. I was still really nervous on the first day because I didn't know what to expect, but Melody, Erika, and Tito arrived right at 9:00 AM and immediately got to work after I gave them a walkthrough. They were so thoughtful and reassuring, and they always checked with me about what should be kept, donated, or thrown away. They were also incredibly meticulous. They carefully combed through everything and set aside important documents, money, and sentimental belongings, including things I had not even thought to look for, like my mom's passport and my family's Social Security cards. Knowing they were paying such close attention gave me so much peace of mind. They worked through an enormous amount of stuff during a heat wave and remained positive and efficient throughout the project. I was honestly so inspired by their work ethic. Mary had estimated that the sorting would take two full days, but they finished early on the second day! A Clear Path also coordinated the hauling with Richard and his team at Cote Trash Hauling and Cleanup. The hauling had been estimated to take two days, but they arrived right at 7:00 AM and finished the entire job in one day! I was amazed by how quickly they worked, especially since the apartment was on the second floor and there was so much to remove. By the end of the third day, the apartment was completely emptied. Richard and his team moved everything we were keeping into storage, transported the donations, and took the remaining junk to the dump. There is absolutely no way I could have handled all of this on my own, especially while juggling work and everything else related to my mom's transition. I feel so lucky that the project went as smoothly as it did! I'm incredibly grateful to Mary, Melody, Erika, Tito, Richard, and everyone else involved. They took a situation that had felt impossible for years and helped my family finally move forward. I truly cannot recommend A Clear Path enough, especially to anyone facing an overwhelming downsizing, hoarding, or senior move situation!!

What the author/owner, Ms. Regina Lark, Ph.D. from USC impressed upon me from her YouTube training…read morewas that clutter is allowed into our space due to our misguided notion of either living in the past (holding onto an item due to whom we received it from, even if the item serves no function or purpose in our current space,) or that we are living in the future with holding onto items because we will need it "someday." Instead of truly examining our current needs and functionality of items in relation to our present space. I had previously lived in a 5 bdrm/3 bths house and had tried to squeeze every piece of furniture I owned into a 2 bdrm/1 bth apartment. After recently retiring, and with a loving intervention by my big sis, LYH, "A Clear Path" (ACP) came into my life. I previously had 4 different organizers (just individuals) who assisted me with mainly paperwork. I recall most sessions with prior organizers were tedious and labor intensive, with sorting all done by me as we went. ACP is different and is "on another level" sending me a Team of two lovely ladies, Josie and Jocelyn, who did pre-sorting of all paperwork and all items before submitting them to me for the final, keep/toss/shred/donate decree. They then organized and categorized my items into locations that "made sense." Both ladies even recovered lost money for me totaling $350 that had been "in the clutter." My life's trajectory has definitely changed because of the intervention from my big sis, LYH, and the carrying out of her project vision, effectuated by "A Clear Path" and with such a "top notch team." I was blessed to be assigned the Team of Josie and Jocelyn, who had the patience, compassion, and educated guidance I needed to get through some "letting go" of the past that were in lots and lots of stuff and paperwork. Not only was it a "saying good bye" to the past, it was making room to breathe, literally and figuratively, without the mental/emotional negative energy that was carried in that "stuff and paperwork." Thanks again, Josie and Jocelyn, for all your help and hard work. You're both Superstars in my book. I look forward to finishing 8 full days and 4 half days twice a month plus a 9-month maintenance with "A Clear Path." I feel so lucky to have such a thoughtful and generous big sis who sponsored/gifted me "A Clear Path." There is no other organizing company that can do such a thorough job as ACP, and with Superstars as the Team of Josie and Jocelyn. Honorable mention goes to responsive, reliable, and trustworthy "Cool Guy Junk Removal & Hauling" who had helped me move items previously throughout the years. He came in to save the day on moving out 2 recliners, 3 bookcases, an IKEA wardrobe, and a kitchen cart, reconfigured/relocated multiple pieces of heavy furniture, gave novel ideas for placement of furniture, hauling out bags and bags of donations to Goodwill w/o receipts as I don't need it, and bags and bags of trash to the landfill with his trailer. He was on "stand by" exclusively for me so he would do a twice a day "haul away" during the initial 4 intensive ACP decluttering days. His rates are very reasonable. He previously had over 222 Five Star Reviews on Yelp under his former business of "Cool Guy Moving." He is based in Lancaster but if you have a job (big or small,) he's the man for the job. Let him know as soon as you have a need and he will rework his schedule to be able to help you. Total Rockstars, CGJR&H and ACP!!

Organizing my home felt incredibly…read moreoverwhelming, especially after a recent painting project left all of my belongings from my office, guest room, and bedroom piled into my living room. I wanted to purge before putting my house back together. We spent 5 hours organizing and purging. Robyn is absolute magic--she helps you see what you have, how you actually use it, and guides you through the process of deciding what to keep without any pressure. She even pointed out that I didn't need to buy new organizing bins; instead, we reutilized things I already owned but was underutilizing. I also recently got new closets and learned during our session that Robyn actually designs them--I completely regret not using her for that! She left me with some homework that I am genuinely excited to finish. Robyn is a true expert: warm, professional, and incredibly great at what she does. She gave me my space back!

Unlike hiring someone from Taskrabbit or attempting to do it myself (which I've attempted both!), Robyn's service was truly worth every penny. What impressed me most was how kindly and respectfully they encouraged me to let go of things I didn't need. They made the process feel liberating rather than overwhelming. Robyn and her assistants expertly separated donations from trash, handled everything from start to finish, and left my garage beautifully organized. The entire experience was seamless and I plan to have them come back for my closets. I highly recommend for anyone looking to do a major clean up!

Fast forward several years to the moment I opened my storage unit: Oh my! I was going to need some help! I had decided that it didn't make sense to continue to pay for the storage unit, and before me lay the gargantuan task of sorting through things and redistributing items. Helping items find their way to a new home was important to me. I did not want things to end up in a landfill! And I was on a deadline. Clutter Healing came to the rescue. Lili immediately understood the situation at hand. Following our conversation, she also stayed in touch with me until the start of my organizing session with one of her team members. Amanda was clear and focused, helping to guide me with thoughtful questions, ideas, and direction so that we could make the most of our afternoon together. There were even some fun moments along the way! Thanks to the groundwork laid with Amanda's help early on in the week, I felt encouraged. Lili checked in occasionally to see how things were going. I was able to complete the work by the time the unit had to be vacated. What a relief! Thank you Lili and Amanda!

I'd get projects half done or be too overwhelmed to start because I didn't know how to do it "perfectly". I called Jamie to help with the playroom/toys. No matter how many times I organized it, it wouldn't stay. We still had too much and I never had the energy to actually dump it all out to get an inventory of what's there. Enter Jamie and Paula... they didn't make me feel ashamed or uncomfortable about the toy disaster they walked into. Instead, they were warm, efficient and non-judgmental. I was able make decisions I'd been putting off for a year because I felt supported. I wasn't having to do the heavy lifting of sorting and categorizing so my brain was free to make decisions to part with toys my kids had once loved but no longer play with. My timid dog who usually won't ask for attention from strangers even licked them and allowed the ladies to pet him by the end of the session. I put off the decision to ask for help for so long and now I'm not sure why. I plan to call them again as I work through the house, decluttering and organizing in order to free my overwhelmed brain so I can be more present with my family
