Decluttering
Services
Achieving an organized home is a joint effort. We will collaborate with you individually to sort your items into categories of keep, donate and toss. We recognize that this can be a challenging process, and we will be there to patiently support you every step of the way... judgement-free, and supportive.
​
Once we finish decluttering, we'll even handle delivering one carload of donations for you!
Home Organizing
Services
Every client and home is different, so we begin with a consultation so we can understand your specific needs and goals for the space.
We will transform any part of your home into a well-ordered and functional space. By sorting, categorizing and organizing your belongings, we ensure your home becomes both organized and practical.
Relocation
Preparation
Whether you're relocating to a new home or helping seniors downsize, we assist you with it all... sorting, decluttering, packing, labeling, and setting up your new space efficiently.
We will help you make thoughtful decisions about your belongings, then organize and style your new home. Our goal is to ensure a smooth and stress-free transition, so you can focus on enjoying your new beginning.

"The entire experience was effective and enjoyable and the time just flew by. You find places to put things that I would have never thought possible. Michelle, you are a true professional - experienced, knowledgeable, understanding, and open to any challenges. I have more to learn and you are such a supportive person. I never felt judged by you for what has been a sensitive issue for me.
​
So thank you, from the bottom of my heart and the inside of my clean office. My advice to everyone: Don't think twice about taking advantage of your expertise."

Some Frequently Asked Questions...
Why should I choose a professional organizer over a cleaning service?
A cleaning service will come into your home or office and clean it from top to bottom.
A professional organizer gets to the root of the issue and then creates a plan to help you put the systems in place to keep your home/business organized, ultimately reducing your stress level and perceived need for a cleaning service.
Should I tidy up or clean before I take my photos?
No! Seeing your space in its natural state is ideal. It will help us better appreciate what functions well and what does not, what challenges you face daily and where improvements can be made. You will only ever be asked to show us the areas of your home that you are comfortable sharing.
Will MaxiMom Organizing make me throw everything out?
NO. During the initial assessment, we will actively listen and gather information regarding you, your family, your lifestyle, what works and what doesn't. We gauge the level of attachment to “things” that each member of the household experiences and develop a plan that respects each person’s limits. Throughout the time that we spend together, we will coach you through those tough decisions - the final decision is ALWAYS yours.
Can I afford a professional organizer?
By the time you begin your search for a professional organizer, you have spent (and likely wasted) a considerable amount of time, effort and money trying to address your organizational needs on your own.
Working with us will save you significantly in the long run and often ends up paying for itself over time. When asked if you can afford to hire us, we often counter with, “can you afford not to”?
