Fresh Start Transitions, LLC

Description of Work: Very professional and instructive. Offered to take objects to sell in her store, especially my ski boots! Haven't used her more completely yet, but will when we get into the move stage. Also offers service in the Hilton Head area which is great for us.

Description of Work: She worked with me to reorganize a disastrously messy and unorganized "craft and sewing" room. Renee worked hard and at the end of three hours I was amazed at the progress we had made. When we were finished SHE took out the trash, and took the recycling and donation with her - a huge help!

Description of Work: I bought a big deal for 4 Hours of Home Organizing with a 1 Hour In-Home Consultation.

Description of Work: I engaged Fresh Start to help me with organization in my laundry room and master bedroom closet-- which were both in an overwhelming state of disarray. After the consultation with Adele, I realized that my laundry room was actually an easy fix with a change in set up and products. I was able to make those changes prior to the actual service date with a bit of effort -- which allowed me to focus fully on the closet on the actual service date. I felt like a got an easy two for one!

Description of Work: Adele came for 1 hour the week prior to our actual organizing session to do a walk-through and get a sense of what I wanted to accomplish. She gave me great advice about how to stage my home in preparation for showing and selling it (her prior experience as a realtor and stager were exceptionally helpful). One week later, Adele returned and we worked for over 4 hours to purge and organize one room. It is now show-ready!

Description of Work: I just moved in from out state. After movers left me with a LOT of boxes, I didn't know where to start. The two ladies that came to house did a great job. Could not be more please !

Description of Work: SERVICE-ORGANIZING CLOSETS. WOW!! Adele Mahan of freshstarttransitions.com came to my home in May 2012, at my request, to straighten and organize my oversized, walk-in closet. I expected an ordinary clean up service of primarily shuffling items around and discarding unused and out of date clothing. But what I got was MUCH, MUCH MORE. First, Adele totally cleaned out the entire closet, piling items in different categories; 1. Keepers, 2. Decide Later, 3. Throw Aways (to charities), 4. Offers to friends and family. She let me make the decisions throughout the entire process. Then she put the closet back together, organizing all items with "like items". Then, she hung transparent shoe bags with all my scarves sorted into seperate slots so I could see them and match them to outfits. Next, she provided plastic boxes for my jewelry, all individually labeled - Gold, Silver, Pearls, etc.. And finally, but not lastly, she gathered all the leftover clothes, shoes, etc., packed them in boxes and personally delivered them to "Goodwill", decide laters to the attic, and just left over junk to garbage disposals. When she left, my closet was immaculate, carpet had been vacuumed and the surrounding room was spotless. All this for only $500 and a cheerful attitude that made the whole project actually "fun" for me. AMAZING.

Description of Work: My parents were downsizing from a large house to retirement community and needed help with unpacking and putting everything away once the movers brought it to the new house. My parents are in the their late 70's and early 80's and could not manage all the unpacking that had to be done. This service was a real blessing!
