The Completed List

Starting on one side of the garage, we removed everything, designating areas of the yard and driveway for "yard stuff", "donate", others. We proceeded in like manner to the back of the garage and the shelves, making our way to the third side of the garage. She opened several cans of old, unusable paint so that they can dry and I can take them to the Montgomery Co. collection site for proper disposal and helped me discern which items could not be donated or recycled and had to be simply discarded in the trash. That left much needed space for reorganizing what we need and want to keep, She helped me wipe off the shelves and sweep the floor, also. She knew where to donate several items which I no longer needed or wanted, so she gathered them in her own car. It had taken me about two years to get to the point where I realized that I needed help outside of my family to get this job done, and the thought of doing it by myself became overwhelming, for it would have involved at least six hours, and I probably would not have completed the job; but Monique and I completed the cleanup and reorganization in just two and a half hours! She is a delight to work with, and I highly recommend her services.

Monique is charming and personable, very easy to spend time around, a good thing since organizing is so personal. She is super-organized, but more than that, teaches my family and me how to be organized as well. Everything has a place, and the place makes sense. She is expensive, but worth it. I've worked w other organizers, but Monique brings a level of intelligence which I haven't seen before. She is able to think through the details of my life, and make personalized organizing suggestions taking into account how I live, what's important to my life. As an example, family memories are important. But they are laying all over the house- photos, old letters, the kids baby pictures, my diploma, my favorite childhood book. Monique helped me gather everything, label, ( so that one day my children will understand why mom saved this...) and place it all in a memory box. She has changed my life- I hated the clutter but didn't know how to do it differently-and now I see a clear path to order.

Monique was totally professional. She sorted between file, recycle and shred. I felt that my information would be kept confidential. I plan on having her back to create a filing system for my important papers. She offered to take the shred to a local free shredder, but I preferred to have a mobile shredder. Monique made the appointment for the shredder to come to my home. Monique also took my donations to a local charity and mailed me the receipts. Monique is trust worthy. Although Monique is efficient, she focuses on the goal without pressure and judgement.

She did an excellent job.

Monique was great! She at our home for for hours and we got a lot accomplished! My husband and I recently moved to a new home and had already done most of the unpacking, but we still had several boxes that we hadn't attended to. In addition, I also had the contents of an 8'x10' storage unit brought to our new home. Monique helped unpack the boxes and go through the storage unit contents, separating the stuff I wanted to keep, donate and trash. At the end of the session, she carted off a huge carload of stuff for shredding, recycling, etc. Not only was she very efficient, but she was also really friendly and positive. Great experience overall!

She is wonderful. She is a huge help, she is not pushy.

What a great day! We have a blended family of 6 - unpacking the kitchen loaded with belongings from 2 households was no easy task. Monique was brilliant and efficient. There was not one wasted moment. The kitchen is perfectly organized - she took away items we decided to donate- everything was labeled - and even the trash was organized! The best part of all - it is the gift that keeps on giving. Everytime I am in the kitchen I get the benefits of Moniqie's outstanding service. To top it off, she is a wonderful person, extremely professional and fun to work with!!

My house was a disaster of things, clothes, paperwork, etc. Monique helped me work through the house one room at a time, one box at a time, on a schedule that was comfortable for me. It took me some time to get used to the process but once I saw how great things were looking I was totally on board. I'm much happier with my home and feel able to have friends over without explaining or apologizing for the mess. If I need things removed Ms. Samuel had the people to do the hauling. She also found places I was comfortable giving my things to as well as being able to consign or sell many of my clothes. I'm happy.

Absolutely perfect every time!
