Extremely helpful, hard working, and fast moving. Couldn’t have gotten ready for our move without them. Hire them if you want to get organized!

These ladies were so respectful during our very productive sessions. I performed a basic sort of each box in my garage to remove what I wanted, then asked the ladies to sort for donation, recycling, or garbage. They loaded all garbage/recycling/shred/donations in their van, so I was left with sweeping up the floor. Will call on them again for future projects.

Amazing! Magnificent! Extremely Professional! A thoughtful, caring person who saved my life! I have had the opportunity to work with Ellen from August to October. She has guided me throughout the entire process of down-sizing my home not only for a sale, but the horrible task from moving to one room from a two bedroom 2-car garage with over 100 years of family heirlooms and life treasures. She helped not only me, but my sister as well. I highly recommend Ellen.

I can’t say enough good things about the folks who helped me out today. I live in a two-bedroom apartment and I’m moving in two weeks. I originally contracted with Renewal Organizing for four hours (two people) to help me with my craft room, removing and packing the pictures on my wall, and, if there was time, the kitchen. That may not sound like much, but the craft room is a entire bedroom stuffed full of years and years worth of craft accumulation. And, as for pictures……well, let’s just say I don’t like bare walls……at all!! The day before they were supposed to come, I started panicking, called Ellen, and asked if needed, could they stay longer. She pulled a rabbit out of a hat……sent three people, rather than two, for the first four hours. Then when it was obvious that it would take longer, and two of the folks needed to head for a family get together, Ellen and her husband, Bernie, came out and worked another 4 1/2 hours!!! They finished everything!! And on top of everything else, they were so friendly and personable……I’m a talker…. I really enjoyed chatting with all of them! If you have packing and/or organizing needs, do yourself a favor and hire these folks!! I would give them 10 stars, if I could.

With a strong tendency to collect and stack things like books, paper, and office supplies, my office space had gotten out of hand after 3 years of taking classes in support of a mid-life change of career direction. With the next stage of schooling soon starting, I needed help to clear out & reset! I feel so fortunate to have found Ellen & Kathi who are reassuring and positive forces of practical productivity! We made progress at a pace that got stuff done (and moved out & onward) yet didn’t cause me to curl up in a ball. My office is now set up to help me succeed. For sure, I’ll be calling upon Ellen & Kathi during a future break for help in tackling other areas of stuff-gone-amuck. Highly recommended!
