Turning Leaf Organizing, LLC.

Description of Work: I contacted Rachel Fazio because I had an enormous task in front of me, with a short period of time to complete it. My house was a disaster of accumulated clutter over about a 6 year period. I was in accident and was facing surgery and needed to clear my home in a very short time frame. With very little notice Rachel and her team took on the job and were able to accomplish a huge amount of work. These women were professional, completely non-judgemental, empathetic, and a real pleasure to work with. The service they provide is not some a sales pitch for a closet system and some plastic boxes. It has more to do with helping you change your environment to something you enjoy living in and not something you are embarrassed about. Rachel and her team made the sessions so that I was able make decisions quickly about what keep, give away or throw away. We were able to get my home in great shape in very short period of time. I also noticed that the team was very sensitive to the feelings of the individual they were working with. An example would be when we opened a bag I had in closet with something my father had given me and wasn't ready to let it go. There was no pressure to make a decision so it was easier to decide if holding on was the right thing at this time. We successfully navigated our way through my house and made remarkable progress in just a few days. Afterward, I felt completely engergized because of the huge feeling of relief of not living under clutter. I plan to continue working with Rachel to develop the skills to be able to live in a small space in a more organized manner. This is making my recovery better and, it is making my overall wellbeing better. She is well worth your time an investment Services included: Sorting Packing Moving items to either trash, recycling, giveaway or put away. Advice on how to make decisions and changes

Description of Work: Work was performed and completed to my specific directions: Cluttered rooms and garage area were organzied by sorting through, catergorizing and then either containing (in boxes and bins) the items that I was keeping, or managing items to be discarded, recycled or donated. Recyclable items were bagged and transported to a recycle site. Items to be discarded were bagged and taken to a local dump. Things that were being donated were delivered to a loacal charity. Finally the boxes and bins were moved to various rooms in the house (or in garage) per my direction.Prior to work beginning, owner Rachel Fazio came to my house to do an initial evaluation. Later that same day I received by email a document outlining our conversation, a time-line for accomplishing the project and a cost estimate.At the completion of the project Rachel provided me with a detailed list of all items that were donated and separate copies of receipts for the dump and the recycle center.
