My location is not in San Francisco. I tried changing this but it won't take. I failed to write a review last year, 2024. My husband of 38 years died suddenly, so I was in mourning. I reached out to Diane, The Tidy Abode. She sent her crew a couple of days later. They were thorough and did a wonderful job. The work lifted up my spirit. Diane is thoughful and kind. Her crew are worker bees, very kind and honest. I would definitely recommend The Tidy Abode, Diane and her crew. Thank you. read more

I reached out to Diane at The Tidy Abode for help with unpacking and organizing all our belongings in a tiny home! It was truly a major downsize from our home of 10 years, to a new space and neighborhood that we intend to make permanent eventually. We brought only what we absolutely needed in to our small space but it was still a challenge and overwhelming to create a new living space that was organized with less cabinets and rooms! When I say challenging I'm talking about tears and feeling like we made a mistake about moving in to a smaller space even though temporary! Well Diane sure came to the rescue, first with a virtual consultation and an appointment to get started. What impressed me most is that Diane got started right away while I was on work calls because I work from home. She made her way through all our kitchen items and quickly sorted and put all the items in the cabinets that was organized and that made complete sense in how we would use the kitchen area! She did return to help with our tiny bathroom organization and cleaning supplies closet which helped tremendously! Diana also gave additional ideas for some storage solutions for things we do not use everyday which we executed not to long after her initial visits. My only regret is not calling Diane sooner for help! I definitely plan to use her services again when we move for packing and unpacking and organizing our new home! Thank you so much, Diane! read more

Diane is just top notch. We had to do a big pantry and garage clean out after combining homes, getting stuck, and just accumulating on top of the mess for over a year. In two big days, she was able to help us sort through the mess, prioritize and get all of our stuff into working/accessible order! It is such a relief to finally be able to get to what I need, and not have to buy more kitchen stuff I know I have but can't find We also learned some great tips and have used them in organizing other daily items. She really did "teach us how to fish." But I'll still be calling her for any bigger projects in the future. I'm including some before and afters. Keep in mind the garage after pic has a section up front of a roommate move out. So just envision the space without the front stuff! read more

Ms. Diane was an answered prayer by turning my space from "Clutter Chaos" to "Tidy Sanity". I definitely would recommend Ms. Diane to my family & friends for her professionalism and very reasonable pricing. She met my goals to: - declutter, sort, organize my stuff and tidy up my space - to teach me a simple method to organize so that I can continue on my own. I'm thankful to her for her nonjudgmental/positive attitude,~~respect for my stuff (asking before trashing),~~attention to details,~~clever tips (advice on clear containers since I'm a visual person),~~her endurance/quickness to get the job done,~~and honesty (found my envelope of cash). [BACKGROUND] - I thank beloved God I chose Ms. Diane even though she was new to Yelp and she quoted me the best price from other Organizers. - This is my 3rd Organizer I have hired looking on the internet at different times. - Had a bad, past experience w/ 2nd Organizer who walked out on the job and lied saying, 'I need to get something from the car'. read more

The owner is very good at what she does. She cleaned out and organized my garage that had accumulated twenty years of stuff. In about 4 to 5 hours she had the garage cleaned and organized. She's an amazing young lady that works on her own and not afraid to get dirty and move items around. If you need someone to declutter and organize your house, give her a call. read more

Tidy Abode is clearly my #1 choice. To start things off, Diane responded to my message quicker than lightning. What built my confidence in choosing this company was her communication. She had tailored her answers specifically to my questions, insuring that I would get the organization my living space needed. Next, another factor that stood out to me was the company branding and online presence. Her website gives you a description of her "why" behind her mission. You can tell by her story that she operates at a higher level than average organizer. The catchy name along with the sleek and simple logo really caught my eye when I was evaluating my options. Last but not least, I will rate the session an very positive and enjoyable experience. With her expertise, it brought order back into my apartment. She was thorough with all items that were to be organized. An example, I had plastic bin that was filled with atleast 50-100 miscellaneous items that all became perfectly organized after her work! In a nut shell, stop looking and give her your money because it's worth it! I'm going to be able to sleep in peace tonight know that I won't have nightmares of the clutter anymore! read more

Diane was seriously a lifesaver when we bought a house & moved in under a month. I never would have been able to keep up with a new job & being there for my young son during the transition without her help. She handled unpacking & organizing our kitchen in one day, and did the same for the playroom in a second day. She's great, and once we get a few more furniture things figured out she will be my first call to finish up getting the house in order. read more

If you're unsure, hire her for a small project and you'll see how much she does in the allotted time. I hired her for our laundry room and she finished so quickly that she ended up doing 2 more closets in 1 day!! She made categories based on what I currently had and helped me purge some items based on expiration, or unnecessary duplicates. She took most items with her to donate, which saved me a trip! She also organized items based on accessibility and my family's needs. I highly recommend purchasing product like wire cabinet shelves or tubs prior to her coming (different sizes) so everything gets put away and looks uniform. Even though I bought clear bins, there were some categories that required larger or smaller containers so she made placeholders in the meantime. It's not necessary to purchase new containers, she actually made great use of random boxes I had laying around since we ran out of clear containers, it was just my preference. She also made me labels so that once I ordered more clear bins I could label them. So thoughtful! Diane is professional, efficient, and friendly. Definitely recommend her services! read more

Diane is fantastic! She was very responsive right from the start of when I put out my Yelp quote request. I had messaged with a few other organizers but Diane seemed to have the best vibe and reasonable pricing. I hired her to help my reorganize my home office and my master bedroom. I'm a working mom and working from home with a toddler home with me 24/7 for the past year has left me with zero time to organize my spaces and it was giving me anxiety that the two spaces I spent most of my time each day were cluttered (to say the least) and chaotic. The spaces desperately needed an overhaul. Enter Diane, she is so patient, doesn't judge, and just gets to work. She was clear on the time expectations as far as if I'm there to direct her, answer questions, things will go faster. Which is true becuase only you know what your stuff is and where you generally want it to go. (I personally don't like when someone comes to clean up my home and then I can't find anything when I need it.) This shouldn't be something where you hire her, leave for the day without giving her any direction, and then expect everything to magically be where you want it to be. (At least one my case). Anyway, we were able to purge a lot of paper that needed to be shredded, and clothes that needed to be donated. We ended up finding a bunch of old gift card and clothing with tags on that I was able to return so these findings practically paid for itself. If you're stressed in your space and need an overhaul, do yourself a favor and hire Diane with The Tiny Abode! read more

I'm somewhat of an accumulator of things and over time, you can imagine a household slowly getting cluttered over time with items I felt would come to use one of these days.... I called Diane to see is she was up for the job, she obliged and offered to come by to provide an assessment on organizing my garage which I was so embarrassed about. She was punctual and showed up as scheduled...She was very professional, courteous and non-judgmental which made me feel at ease. I went to work for a few hours and left her alone to do her job, when I came back home, my garage was organized in ways I couldn't even imagine doing myself. Items were organized neatly and she made very good use of the space allowed. I was actually able to park a vehicle in the garage once again and even had enough space to work on projects, which a garage should be used for. Overall, I'm impressed with the work that she did and would definitely use her services to do my kitchen next. Her imagination in making use of the space allowed is awesome and something I can learn from her. read more

Diane has been such a pleasure to work with over the pat few weeks. I was really happy with our phone conversation prior to hiring her, and she's been so supportive in helping us declutter. There's no stress or pressure at all and she guides us through the process and is very helpful. Looking forward to getting our home fully organized! read more

I'm so happy with the results! Tiny Abode was responsive, did exactly what they said they would and charged a fair price for their hard work. I asked for quotes from multiple businesses and some wanted around $200 JUST for a consultation. There were no ridiculous charges like that with Tiny Abode. They were communicative, professional and efficient. I will definitely be using this company in the future and recommend it to friends/family. Other places wanted to charge double and triple what they ended up charging me. My garage is so organized and clean now! read more

Diane was an absolute pleasure to communicate and work with, from start to finish and a bit after. Her communication and organizational skills are top notch, as well as being was very flexible and understanding. When she came to organize, I just said what's important and let her go at it. Something special to note about Diane is that after I had paid her, she still offered to help put things away for me! That's the kind of person she is. read more

There's a reason Diane has five stars on yelp. She is amazing problem solver, detailed and thank God organized with a gift! I wish I had more projects because she's also great company. I definitely will refer her if it comes up in conversation. Project- organized my catering commercial kitchen. Took 3 hours read more

Diane is literally amazing! Our place was so disorganized after our move and I didn't know where to even start! She came in and got everything into place. I am even having her come back to do more organizing for our kitchen and bathrooms! She is the best and I would highly recommend her to anyone! read more

Diane did an incredible job reorganizing our closets and kitchen cabinets. Diane is very patient, kind and reliable. She works very hard and cares about her business. My wife & I will continue to use Diane for all of our organizing needs and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help decluttering and re-organizing any room in their house. read more

Diane was quick to respond to my request and understood my needs from her wealth of experience. What seemed like an overwhelming project to me, seemed super simple once we starting working on storage solutions and pairing down the things I wasn't using. Diane has a hands on approach which is just what I needed. She is a professional; on time, easy to schedule with and great company during the work. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for the peace of mind that comes from an efficient and well organized environment. read more

Diane was absolutely amazing to work with. She organized all of my clothes and accessories after a big move, and everything is exactly to my liking. She really makes sure to work exactly to her clients specifications and I would love to work with her again. Thank you so much Diane! read more

Diane is a lifesaver! My house is the hub for my family's storage & I also run a staging business alongside my real estate business. So, I have a lot of decor & personal items in my home garage as well as 2 storage units nearby. We've been busy, so things haven't been put back in any particular order with things literally piling up. It has made things so much more stressful when we can't find the things we're looking for. So, I contacted Diane and she came in with a plan, made suggestions and she worked FAST! I didn't think there was going to be any extra room in my storage units, but she made it work, with room to spare! Now I can find everything I need! And now I'm looking forward to starting more organization projects with Diane! read more

Loved working with Diane! We had such a big mess in the garage, it was time for a clean up and big organization on it. Diane was well prepared and informed us about everything we needed to know before she came to the house. Her prices were reasonable, communication was awesome, and her positive attitude made the whole process smooth. She organized all our cabinets by categories and even managed to organize all the tools and supplies my dad has for his work in his side of the garage which was a lot. I can't express how thankful I am for her work with us. We finally have room to walk in the garage lol! I will definitely be reaching out to her again! read more

Diane is the best! We have worked in my garage pantry and the closet! We have a lot more rooms to do and she will be back I'll post a picture of before and after of the closet the garage is still a work in progress highly recommend read more

Diane was great to work with on organizing my garage. She worked along side me, helping to clear out unwanted junk, sort the stuff to keep, and organize it so that I could walk through the garage again. In planning, she's reliable, responsive, and a good communicator. On site she's hard working, no drama, and constructive. And then she helped by taking my household hazardous waste to the city site and donations to Goodwill. The entire experience was fantastic -- highly recommended. For the big cleanout, I ordered a dumpster dropped in my driveway from Bins for Less and we made quick work of large, bulky items. For the second session, we just accumulated the larger items to landfill and I just added them to my city trash bins over time. read more

Diane did a good job help us unpack. She organized our kitchen and master bedroom. Her price is reasonable and she's very easy to talk to. She wore a mask and gloves the whole time. Highly recommend her! read more

I felt overwhelmed by the task before me, which was to sort through 30 years' worth of dusty boxes in storage and whittle them down to the essentials. The storage facility had raised the unit's rate over the years and was billing me the unbelievable amount of $400/month. I needed to keep only those things our family could not bear to part with. Yes, the 30 year old soccer trophies had to go, along with college textbooks. Diane worked with me over 16 hours and we got the job done. She let me break up the 16 hours into 4 days of 4 hours each, which was important to me. I did not have the attention span or stamina to go through this stuff for 8-hour sessions. The result it that I was able to move everything from my storage unit over into my garage and onto the shelves. $400/month saved!! Diane is patient, soft spoken and supportive, and got everything onto the shelves in such a way that I know where everything is and can access items quickly. She is priced very reasonably, and I am extremely happy with the result. Susan read more

Diane is the best! She comes in and knows what to do. You don't have to hover over her while she organizes. Do the initial purge with her, tell her what u want done and boom she does it. Highly recommend Diane! read more

Diane is great at what she does and provides a very helpful service. I will be using her again and referring her to others who need to get organized. read more

Diane was so patient with me. She's so organized! Loved how she went through my desk and gave everything a new home. And through my bins of paperwork and memorabilia and was so zen about it. Everything has a home now. My home office feels so good now. I actually feel proud to look at it and I can think more clearly Thank you soo much read more

My garage needed a lot of help. we had a pipe break in our bathroom so there were lots of extra things added to the already cluttered garage. Diane was professional, easy to work with, had great ideas and an absolute pleasure to work with. I would recommend her highly! read more

I'll be hiring her again, honest, organized, and decisive. Definitely gets the job done and has an amazing outlook on the situation of clutter. She knows what to do when most people freeze after a certain point in organizing. read more

Diane is great! She is patient, kind, listens attentively and has very fair prices. She gave me suggestions for organizing my small condo and sent me suggestions to order. She even put together a bookcase and a case for my linens. She also shopped for me and stayed in contact with me. I used her 3 times to organize my place and she showed up consistently. Great service read more

They did a good job organizing and labeling storage in our kitchen pantry. Would use again for detailed organizing needs.

Diane was amazing! First, she is so sweet and easy to work with. Communication was flawless. She approached a VERY disorganized playroom and within a few hours, everything was in its place and decluttered. I've been avoiding doing this for so long and Diane made the process so easy! So happy I found her! read more

Diane was great. We moved into our apartment close to a year ago, and had our place 85% set up. We needed her help with dealing with the last 15% of stuff from the move that never made it out of boxes, or accumulated on top of each other, or came with the mountain of stuff having a baby required. She also reorganized our kitchen cabinets in under half an hour. She didn't pressure us to get rid of anything or buy anything we didn't want to, either. She was there to help us work with what we had! Would hire again! read more

Very easy to work with! Prompt with responses and very efficient! I highly recommend. Very capable and helped me make a large dent in my organizing! read more

Diane was amazing! We moved in a whirlwind. Had to combine two households and couldn't take any time off of work. We would still be in boxes 2 years form now, I'm sure of it! Diane was reasonably priced, reliable, had vision, is a diligent worker. She literally moved us in. It is so nice to come home home now. She did our kitchen, closet, bathroom, laundry room and extra room and unpacked and organized 200 boxes in the garage. It is amazing how quickly she worked. I would hire her again 1000 times over. read more

Diane is amazing. She is so helpful with organizational ideas. She is very efficient. And a pleasure to work with. She is helping me currently & a close friend is using her to help with a move. My friend is so impressed with Diane & thinks she is a life-saver. I would highly recommend Diane as an organizer!! read more

Diane was responsive and helpful when discussing my objective. When she and her assistant showed up (on time) they worked hard to complete the project. It did take somewhat longer than we anticipated but I attribute that to their efforts to do the job right. read more
