Decluttering & Organizing

A calm, organized home reduces stress, boosts mood, and increases energy. Whether you're tackling lingering clutter or navigating a significant change, we'll help you create a space that works for your needs. We help clients who are:

  • Preparing to put their home on the market

  • Downsizing and deciding what to keep for their next chapter

  • Going through a divorce or other major life change

  • Setting up after a renovation or moving into a new home

  • Sending kids off to college or expecting a baby

  • Simply feeling overwhelmed by accumulated clutter

Neat brings a designer's eye to every project. With a background in graphic design and UX, we don't just manage clutter, we create spaces that feel intentional and beautiful. We leave you with rooms that are both highly functional and visually calming.

The Neat approach
We begin by getting to know you and understanding your goals and challenges, so we can create systems that feel intuitive. During organizing sessions, we work alongside you to make thoughtful decisions about your belongings. We provide gentle, supportive guidance to ensure you feel comfortable with every decision. Most clients describe the experience as cathartic and finish with a genuine sense of accomplishment. Sessions can range from a few hours to a full day to multiple days, depending on your project's scope.
