OrganizeMe and Mary Ellen were essential to me. I learned new, easier, more manageable techniques for organizing my time, space and resources. Value for Money is unquestionable. I've already earned more money because my organizational skills are improving.

I just paid for a consultation to give me ideas on how to organize. I couldn't afford to pay to do everything I wanted to do. I think, if anything, it got me motivated to donate some things.

Review by a customerin Lees Summit, MO Project: Find a Home Organizer Consultant
This was a very large project to organize a basement full of items from a move over 10 years ago, plus several wardrobe boxes full of clothes. The project fell through because of poor communication. I think Mary Ellen has a pleasant personality and is a very nice person, but she needs to tell the customer what she is doing with the customer's property----and discuss options, and ultimately let the customer decide.
Comment from OrganizeME
We completed the first phase of her organization project, sorting and purging water-damaged items. I gave options for donations and explained that moldy or musty clothing would likely be thrown away and were not tax deductible. I offered to take her damaged clothing and recycle it or try to clean it, then donate it for an appropriate use. She agreed and my assistant and I took the clothing. She called the next day and said she had changed her mind and wanted to donate the clothing herself. I had disposed of a few things, but brought back the rest and suggested that we discontinue our work together, as there were issues with communication

Feel compelled to say this was a great experience. Not the cheapest service, but not the easiest of jobs given the mess involved. Well worth the investment and very happy with the result.

Mary Ellen was extremely helpful. We accomplished so much and I learned a lot from her. I would like to have her come back to do more of my house.
