What Our Clients Say

Asked the right questions

We made multiple attempts over 10 years to turn a spare bedroom from use as miscellaneous storage to a craft room, ultimately succeeding in only have a different configuration of the same mess. Stacia asked the right questions to help us decide between keeping, donating, or throwing away particular items. She wasn’t judgemental about any of those decisions. She had excellent guidance for how and where to store sets of items. She kept us focused. We have a neatly organized room that functions well for its designated purpose, and the organizational tools/skills to keep it that way. We made more progress in half a day’s work with Stacia than we had on 10 years of working on our own!

Small Business Organizing

My office feels so different. The desk space gives new energy – and space to create and work. The piles are gone and the valuable pieces sit in files. I have more energy. I look forward to future improvements in our lives.

The FIRST choice for your organizing needs

Before working with Basic Organization, we were challenged to make decisions on my recently deceased Dad’s place and all of his belongings. My brother and I did not have the time or ability to sort through all of his things. So we decided to call an organizer. After interviewing a few people, Janet won my heart!

Working with them was especially helpful because we were coming from out of town which was extremely costly. Janet and her team did an amazing MIRACULOUS JOB of organizing my Dad’s condo. Two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, dining area, closets, and living room, FULL of junk. They touched every piece and amazingly finished in record time. We asked for it all to be done in one day. They were done by 3 pm! I was expecting 9 pm. Amazing! I want to tell the world about these ladies because they saved us the emotion of going through our deceased Dad’s belongings, and the thousands of dollars it would take to travel back and forth to do it all ourselves, AND Janet offered to sell our valuables on Craigslist, recommended a junk company to haul it all away and to help us with recommendations for contractors.

If we had not contacted Basic Organization, we would still be in a mound of junk spending even more money. By the way, with Janet’s help, we were able to get over $400 back from things sold from the ad Janet placed for us. I would recommend Janet and the Basic Organization team as the FIRST choice for any and all of your organizing needs.
