Do I have to work alongside my professional organizer during the session?

Filed Under:

In most situations, yes. For you to learn and experience the organizing process, it is best for you to be part of the process. In addition, it’s helpful to have your feedback and input as we work so that we give you functional and realistic results. If we are unpacking you into a new home it’s not necessary for you to be home.

This review is long overdue. We had just moved to a new home. Amber and her team arrived right after our movers unloaded. They unpacked all our boxes (including clothing), organized our living spaces, and made recommendations as to what we needed to buy for storage with dimensions and website links. Would Definitely recommend.

I hired Amber and one of her employees to help pack up my house for a move. They accomplished in 6 hours what it would have taken me days and days to achieve. They moved so quickly, carefully and efficiently I was in awe! It totally changed my packing from overwhelming and stressful to confident that everything was going to get done! Best investment I’ve made in a long time! Highly recommend! I only wish I was moving close enough for her to help at the other end of my move!

Amber and Jinni packed my four floor home quickly and efficiently and everything arrived in perfect condition. The movers were impressed that somehow all the boxes were similar in weight. I highly recommend Amber’s Organizing, the attention to detail and no nonsense approach made a huge task extremely manageable.

I’m selling my condo and had to get photo- and virtual tour-ready for showing my place. In a matter of four hours, an Amber’s organizer (Jinni) ran circles around me decluttering my “trouble” spots as I worked on my file cabinet. She straightened all the areas and even brought donated items to a worthy resale shop In Chicago. Thank you for your excellent - and fast! - work. I highly recommend this service. No more stress in getting my home in order!

Amber was great--communicative, professional, and knowledgable! She worked to understand my unique situation, and she made what could have been a stressful process an easy and simple one. I absolutely recommend her services for packing and moving!

Amber helped me organize my mud room and enormous amount of kid clothes. I was so overwhelmed with the amount of clothes I had from hand me downs and clothes that were too small/big for my kids to wear. You couldn’t even walk in the bedroom. Amber helped me organize the clothes and closets and help put a system in place to prevent this disaster from happening again. She is thoughtful, very professional and didn’t judge me on my mess or disorganization of everything. I am so thankful for her help and love for organizing!

This is the second time I’ve reached out toAmber and would definitely do again! I have a budding little artist at home and “projects” can pile up very quickly at her art station. Amber helped me sort through all of the things I’ve been avoiding and we had time after to tidy up in daughters room after.

I was lucky enough that Amber herself came over to work with me. Based on the whole experience, I'm certain everyone at the company carries similar qualities. They're insanely good at what they do. So if you read nothing else, and are just wondering whether you should call/email to get more information--resounding Yes.My home office needed help--badly. Amber exceeded my expectations! At all points I felt like I knew what to expect next. She's someone who partners with you to help figure out what's realistic and what will have a lasting impact. She didn't dictate or make demands about how much stuff to keep or where things should go. It's very much a two-way conversation. Amber was conscientious about the amount of time we were taking, and at no point did I feel like she was trying to rush me (or milk more time out of the session). She was professional and trustworthy--essential when undertaking something like this.This was a phenomenal experience, one that was long overdue. I will definitely be calling her back to help address other areas of the house!

I hired Amber's Organizing to help with unpacking following a local move. (After moving twice last year and doing the unpacking myself, I swore I would get help this time!) It was the best money I spent on the move. Amber and Erika came first thing in the morning on the day after the mover's had left, and in just five hours, we had the kitchen and all three bedrooms unpacked. We were able to start living in and, more importantly start feeling settled and enjoying the house so much more quickly than if we hadn't had their expert help on not just getting through the volume of stuff to unpack, but advice on where to put things and what else we could buy when ready to get even more organized.

Working with Amber was a spectacular experience. We were selling my mother’s house which she lived in for 50 years. I live out-of-town and didn’t have knowledge of reliable sources. Not only did the organizers pack and sort everything, but they did it in half the time we expected. They were very polite, respectful, and efficient. Every vendor came in at the exact time Amber told me to expect them. Pricing was what we were quoted. What I thought would take two 5 day trips in to accomplish was finished in 3 days! We highly recommend Amber and have passed her name on.

Amber rocks! We have worked with her for the last 13 years whenever organizational issues would come up. She is known as the "Organizational Linebacker" to my husband ! At the start he was very weary of having someone come in and help us go through sensitive material in our office . After plowing through and organizing file after file we've never looked back. We just recently moved and Amber's smart ideas in the kitchen have already made my life easier. She helped my husband figure out the best way to utilize our garage space too !

We hired Amber's Organizing to help us move into a new home after a cross-country relocation and 9 months in temporary housing. Our house was a disaster after the mover's left ... but two days of professional organizing made it like we had been there for months. It's easy to find everything, and even our basement is completely organized! These folks are reasonably priced, super professional and a joy to work with.

Amber is amazing! She asks the right questions to clear the clutter once and for all! She helped me purge and reorganize my kitchen and a couple of closets - all within a few hours. These were areas I had been decluttering slowly for weeks! She also helped me rethink how to organize other areas of my home. I'm no longer overwhelmed with all that has to get done! She got me started, now I'm building on her momentum. I already booked another session with her next month to finish what I cannot get done on my own in the next few weeks. Amber is a godsend!!!

Amber and her team are amazing. Got my new place organized in no time and left me with great tips on how to keep it going! My drawers have never looked the way they look now. Thank you Amber and Erica!

Tracey did an amazing job helping me with organizing my daughters art table. We filled THREE bags of “junk” and she even pulled out her label maker so everything can go neatly into the correct bin at clean up time. I’ve already referred your services to friends! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I hired Amber to help me get my garage under control and organized. I couldn't have been more pleased with the process and I was shocked how quickly she worked. We got far more done in 2 hours than I had been able to do in several weekends prior. I especially appreciated the efficiency, since I had limited time available. When she was done my garage looked great and I had a clear plan for keeping things in order going forward. I highly recommend her company and will use them again when I'm ready to tackle my next home project.
