You want the main event when it comes to organization, then you need to work with Chicago Organized Home (COH)! Nicole, Rachel and Jori finished a 2 day project to help our family get organized and what a job they did! Not only do they ask the right questions but they offer solutions to your messy home! This was the 2nd time we utilized their services and by far won't be the last! For the 2nd job, we added a 3rd family member so we needed some help organizing his closet, toys and other goods. Nicole came to do an evaluation then a few weeks later after buying the necessary items from the Container store, they came ready to work! The next project is for them to help us tidy up our garage. We look forward to seeing them in the spring! Tired of mess and disorganization? Then call COH today! read more

Would call the work Chicago Organized Home does, magic! I moved into a new home and was not quite sure how to leverage the large new space. Not only did they help me figure out best spaces for different types of storage but with minimal direction organized all closets and storage areas in the most beautiful way. Nicole is a delight to work with. Through just photos and texts, she understood and nailed my vision. The team is incredible. Hard working, professional, visionary. The project started small (one day) and has extended to them transforming my entire house. I have recommended them to my friends and will continue to work closely with them! Thanks COH for my gorgeous spaces. read more

A few years ago, I wrote a glowing review for this company and was excited to tell my friends about it. But I have to revise my review now and warn people not to get involved with this business. Not only did I find that as a client they started to raise their rates without notice to make more money off of me which was against the terms we originally agreed to (yes, Pam actually said this to me that they were raising my rates because they weren't making enough money), but when I requested that they provide me the receipts for my purchases (which they were supposedly holding and filing away as a service) I was told that they don't have a good filing system for receipts and couldn't provide them to me. I am absolutely floored by the lack of service and the lack of organization this company actually has behind the scenes. To have a name like Chicago Organized Home, I would expect that their back office would be organized but it is not. Take this advice from a former client, save your money and your time. Don't bother. read more

If you want a lot of over promising and under delivering contact these people. I'm not sure what the average age of clients is for this company, but I was helping my single aunt move out of her condo and unfortunately recommended this company based on reviews and location. Not only do they charge an arm and leg for every small detail but they don't let you chime in and add your own suggestions because they have a very regimented way of doing things that some may like but was not kosher with us. You have to respect others belongings and certain items have to be handled with extra special care and clearly a rushed job resulted in the breakage of a few sentimental items that in the end they didn't want to address or believe. read more

A year and a half ago, I left a positive review for this company, after they very competently ran an errand for us, in a way that was pleasant and professional. Imagine our surprise, 1.5 years later, when they suddenly charged our account out of the blue several hundred dollars. We politely telephoned (leaving a message on voicemail) and emailed (to two different email IDs), informing them of the error of this illegitimate charge, giving them the opportunity to correct the error. These messages, unfortunately, have gone unanswered. It's bad enough to charge someone several hundred dollars for no good reason. It's even worse to ignore a polite, legitimate query regarding such an illegitimate charge. So we have been obliged to contact our credit card company to instigate a charge-back, with all the associated hassle and wasting of time involved. The agreement we signed with this company expired months ago. Our credit card info should not have been retained. Our queries should not have gone unanswered. How do you expect consumers to entrust you with their credit card information if you abuse it? UPDATE: The owner of the business messages me today, to say that she has checked her records thoroughly and my review is a case of mistaken identity. "Nothing about your experience sounds familiar," she says. "I have been in business for 10 years and have not had any experience like this. I really pride myself on providing good service to my customers," she writes, asking me to consider removing my review. So I checked my email and located the chain of correspondence that documents this incident, identifying Pam by name, showing the exact amount of the refund she ultimately issued (after I threatened a charge-back). And I responded promptly to her message, offering to forward her the chain of correspondence, including her refund, complete with timestamp, to refresh her memory if she wishes. As I also stated, it's bad enough that she did what she did in 2016. To deny that it ever happened is even worse. It would have been much more appropriate to extend an apology. read more

I can't say enough good things about Pam Sherman and Chicago Anytime Assistants, but I'll try. I am relatively new to Chicago and I don't have a car. The other day I had a very bad spill on the ice and I realized that I had I had to go to the doctor and I needed someone to help me around the house. Garbage was piling up and I couldn't really clean up the place, or even get my mail, because I had sprained & broken part of my ankle. I called Pam and before she came over she sent me a follow up email. Pam came over and was incredibly friendly, put me at ease and the house looked great. Then she took me to the hospital, took me to get x-rays and then came back later to pick me up from the ER at about 7pm, even though she had plans. She was more than just a personal assistant: she was a great human being. I was a wreck and I needed some support and she was unfailingly upbeat, brought me candy and made me feel like I had nothing to worry about. I would definitely hire her again and I recommend her company to anyone who wants a very professional, fabulous personal assistant. read more

Pam is awesome. She helped coordinate our move to a new apartment when I was 7 months pregnant. She handled finding and scheduling the movers, packing up our stuff, and then helping us to unpack and get our new place more organized than we'd ever have been able to figure out on our own. She even sent us flowers on move day! We've used her service for many other needs ranging from car repairs to helping us sell some old stuff on Craigslist (she got us way more dollars than we ever hoped) and even finding us someone to help set up our crib. She and her service are always professional, prompt and super friendly and competent. What can I say, Chicago Anytime Assistants is the best. read more

Pam took care of my birds and mail when I went on vacation. She must have been great, because our birds barely missed us, since they got every type of food they get when we are home. She even ran the dishwasher for me! A nice touch was the email summary of the multi-day service that I had waiting. I would recommend Pam and CAA to anyone who wants a more peaceful vacation! read more

I ran across an advertisement for Chicago Anytime Assistants and thought, wow, what a great and affordable way to buy myself some extra free time without committing to a full-time assistant! Pam and her assistants have been excellent so far in making recommendations for my random needs and it is obvious they are on top of every detail. I've been a client since the beginning and the service has been consistently excellent. I always feel like i have someone to fall back on when I am in a bind for time or even ideas. I highly recommend using Pam and Chicago Anytime Assistants. read more

This service is a total game changer. We used them to move into our new house, and they coordinated everything from beginning to end: reserving the elevators in our former high-rise, booking the movers, doing all the packing, unpacking and set-up in the new house. It probably would have taken us weeks to do on our own, but our move happened on a Thursday and we were all set up in our new house the very next day! Lock, stock and barrel all taken care of for us: clothes unpacked and hanging in the closets / folded up in our chests, kitchen fully organized, new furniture assembled, TV set up, even the old cable boxes returned to the cable company, etc. It was my second time using them, both moves went great, and I would definitely recommend them / will certainly be using them again in the future. The time you save with them is just unreal - once you move with them you'll never go back to moving on your own. read more

Pam did an excellent job on some hospitality baskets our company provided to some out of town guests we put up in corporate condominiums. Pam responded to me almost immediately and handled my 'rush' job with no issues. She delivered everything within 48 hours, did a lovely presentation and accomplished everything within the time-budget she alotted. I can't wait to use Chicago Anytime Assistants for personal tasks. Great work Pam and thank again! read more

CAA rocks! To get me to take the time to write an e-mail to my friends and family about a business i like means that I REALLY LIKE the company. Here is an excerpt from that e-mail and my desire to spread the good word about CAA: " I know I'm usually e-mailing about "green stuff", but in this case I wanted to introduce you to a great new company I just discovered: Chicago Anytime Assistants. Let me say first that I have no vested interest in this company, and they are not paying me to send this e-mail. I was just so impressed with their services, I wanted to pass it along. I was introduced to the owner, Pam Sherman, when I needed some office typing done for Ecoscene, and they did a terrific job, on budget and in time (how often can you say that)!! . The do a host of other stuff too from "errands" to laundry to personal shopping. Check out there website and the basic info below. If you have any questions let me know or contact Pam directly, she is great." Aimee read more

If I could give 10 stars, I would! Pam, Brittany and Erika helped me prepare and then execute an amazing engagement proposal in Chicago Union Station. From the start, they were professional and organized. I never worried one moment that things wouldn't go as planned. I trusted them with one of the most important moments in my life, and they exceeded my expectations at every turn. They coordinated with the site manager at Union Station, set up the private balcony with decor, took photos/video of the proposal, and then made a slide show. The best money I've ever spent on impeccable service. Thank you ladies from the bottom of my heart. We will never forget the moment you created :) read more

Chicago Anytime Assistants Are My Indispensible Helpers! I'm delighted to review Chicago Anytime Assistants (CAA) as I've had nothing but exceptional experiences with Pam Sherman and her team of "we can do anything" assistants. There is no job too big or too small for Chicago Anytime Assistants. Honestly, I could write a book about all the tasks they have completed for me with excellence. Here is a brief summary of some of the key phrases and experiences I've had with CAA: Resourceful: Many times I've called CAA to figure out a solution to a task that I had no idea where to begin. For example, re-selling my wedding dress. I asked CAA to figure this out for me. They did their research, found a prospective buyer in my area and negotiated the sale. Listens Intelligently: On multiple occasions I've called CAA to explain my needs. They listen; take good notes and playback my job adding their own efficiency to complete the task. For Instance, when I decided to put my house on the market I needed to de-clutter, purge and box up items for storage. CAA helped me go through every closet, every drawer and every cabinet to complete this task. They even took items to the Salvation Army! What's more, they gave me great advice along the way to keep the project moving. Trust: I would entrust CAA with anything of mine, even my most prized possessions -- family heirlooms and antique furniture. They have handled my things with great care and treat everything as they would their own. Organization: I've worked with CAA to merge all my blackberry contacts, with my personal excel mailing list, to my Apple products. They did this with ease. This was a huge sigh of relief, as I had no idea where to begin. Jobs of All Sizes: When I broke my foot and was on crutches, I needed help with items that I simply could not do myself. They picked out a birthday present for my five year-old niece, purchased my new iPhone and had it activated/synched with my computer and picked up a birthday cake from a local bakery for my husband. They made me a hero aunt and wife! I would succinctly summarize my multiple experiences with CAA as follows: They articulate what I need, determine the best possible way to get it done and improve my tasks with efficiency and quality service. That's why they are my indispensible helpers! read more

.. Catching up on some long overdue reviews. It's been a couple of years since I used CAA, but Pam and her staff were great. Definitely helped my wife and I out big time during a very busy period of our lives and saved our butts more than a few times. Very reliable and super high-quality work! read more

I had posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a personal assistant - and lord, the responses I got! But one stood out far ahead of the rest, and that was Pam's, on behalf of Chicago Anytime Assistants. As a tax professional, I was faced with the daunting task of moving, on top of keeping up with my regular life. Knowing that the two together would cripple me, I was looking for some help with organizing the move, not to mention packing all of my nonsense. Pam took over coordinating the entire move - including scheduling time for one of her staff to come pack up my entire apartment, transferring utilities, hiring the movers, coordinating for elevator time at my current building, and handling all the in-between details that I was forgetting. She even thought about lunch on move day - something I never would have remembered until much later that night when I was beyond starving! Pam and her staff were extremely professional, and very detail-oriented. An overwhelming task for me seemed to be a breeze for them, and I still can't believe how smoothly everything went. I would not hesitate to use them again for absolutely anything, having seen how well CAA handled a daunting task like a move. read more

Pam, Why didn't I do this sooner! I am sorry that I procrastinated for a year. Thanks for your patience in following up. Hanna was absolutely incredible. She is quick, efficient, organized and just a sweet person. She literally made the most of every second she was here. I appreciated that she needed very little direction as I'm sure she told you, I'm working on very little sleep with a very colicky baby. I also felt like she was very trustworthy which allowed me to tend to the baby while she worked. The basement is fantastic, I can actually see the floor and she organized a mess of files I've been staring at for a year. Yes I do have other projects. I'd like to do 3 closets and a photo organization within the next couple of weeks. A little farther off is prep to put this house on the market, hopefully in the next few months. Then later unpacking in the new house (which I haven't found yet). Kudos to you for hiring such a hard working and honest person! Sincerely, L read more

After stressing for weeks, if not months, on how I was going to relocate my storage unit contents from Chicago to Dallas without my involvement, Pam and Chicago Anytime Assistants cane to the rescue. With one phone call Pam was on it. Within 24 hours my storage unit was vacated, loaded on a POD and on its way to my Dallas location. Not only was the process easy and seamless, Chicago Anytime Assistants saved me hundreds of dollars that I was quoted by doing it myself. Not many companies can save you time, money, and make it EASY! I would highly recommend that anyone needing to clear off their to-do list with those important but time sucking projects give Pam and her team a call. read more

Pam and her team are pros, period. They're highly professional AND friendly and efficient and we're so lucky to have this resource in this area! read more

Changed. My. Life. I've always felt overwhelmed and irresponsible because of the home/organizational things I needed to do and never actually got around to doing, but I didn't realize how badly it felt until I caved and got Chicago Anytime Assistants to help me out. They are professional and friendly in perfect balance, very fair in their pricing (task rabbit is wayyyy more pricey), never tried to overcharge, and also got everything done that needed to be done, and they were great about offering me a few solutions (not too many to overwhelm me) for each task and then letting me choose. Honestly, what a huge relief, my life is getting in order thanks to them. Pamela, Elizabeth, Hannah and Kate are all wonderful. I know it may seem like "oh I'm going to get to this, I don't need to pay anyone," I went on like that for years. But for me, I finally accepted I could not do everything, and thanks to their help I feel so much relief. I'm going to use them from now on. It's not a huge risk to just give it a try once, so I'd say just try it. read more

Chicago Organized Home - The After. I WISH I could show you before.  They got the bins, labeled them. Now I'm flooded with relief every time I look in the closet. - Movers Near Me - Chicago,, Illinois

I needed a full-time personal assistant/housemanager. When I spoke to Pam, she very thoughtfully said that her services are more geared to using someone periodically or less than full-time. She did help me to think outside of the box and helped me to design the position, post the position, as well as screen the candidates. She was so helpful in the process and I really enjoyed working with her. I would absolutely recommend her to help through any project and process! read more

We dealt with Pam and from the first time talking to her, we knew we were set. She helped us ship some food to CA and made the whole process simple and easy. I would not hesitate to use her services again and have already recommended to all of my friends. Thank you very much, Pam. read more

Pam is truly awesome, and has been a real lifesaver for me! A few months ago, I moved my father with Alzheimer's from Chicago to the DC area. As an only child, I had the responsibility of dealing with his house in Chicago. But also as an only child, I had the responsbility of keeping my dad feeling safe and oriented in his new home. So I couldn't afford to spend lots of time organizing my dad's old house. Pam had a staff member go through the piles of paper strewn around the house, organizing them per my specifications. I received frequent email updates on the progress of the job, she found a shredding service to dispose of old financial documents, and sent me the most crucial documents through the mail. At my next visit to the house, I was able to quickly sort through remaining material, and leave Pam with instructions for mailing or disposal of materials, instead of taking precious time to move things myself. We met the day of my departure, and I received an e-mail that the boxes to be mailed were on their way before I even got on the plane myself! Pam is the model of efficiency. She not only gets things done quickly, but she also considers what is the best and most cost-effective way to get things done. She is meticulous in keeping the lines of communication going and detailing the work done. She is also an extremely nice and very caring person who truly seems to enjoy helping people. Pam was a lifesaver for me, and I would absolutely recommend her services for anyone who needs help. read more

My daughter was about to move into a new apartment at school. Problem: she was halfway around the world, and I was 800 miles away in another city. She needed to buy some furniture and have it moved in prior to her arrival. The store wouldn't deliver unless I came in personally to make the purchase, and then I'd need someone to be there to accept the delivery. It seemed like the only solution was to fly to Chicago, rent a car and do it myself. Not wanting to spend an extra $1,000 or so, I did some searching on the internet, and found Chicago Anytime Assistants. The reviews I read about this company seemed too good to be true, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to call. Boy did I get lucky! I spoke with Pam, who seemed bright, efficient and very willing to handle the assignment. Her fee was very reasonable, and I felt confident that I could avoid having to fly to Chicago to take care of it. It's a long story, but in completing the assignment, Pam ran into numerous obstacles - none of them her fault - that caused this project to take 3 times as long as she had anticipated. She dealt with each problem intelligently, kept in touch with me by phone and email every step of the way, and promptly scanned and emailed receipts. As it turns out, the job required organizational skills, diplomatic skills, and a willingness to go way above and beyond the scope of the original project. Pam did them all quickly and exceptionally well. She may just be the most competent person I've ever encountered. Believe me when I tell you that if I had tried to do this myself, it would have been a time consuming and costly disaster. I feel very fortunate to have found Pam and Chicago Anytime Assistants. In fact, I would say that the name of her company really understates what she does. Pam simply solves all of your problems. I would use her services again in a heartbeat, and recommend her without the slightest reservation. read more

Professional from start to finish, it does not get any better than this group. I had important, date sensitive paperwork that had to be picked up in person in Chicago and I am in NY. Enter: Chicago Anytime Assistants. Mission accomplished in two days time. Fantastic! read more

Chicago Organized Home is the best!!! My basement was beyond horrible... an area you would try to avoid at all cost!!! I had been wanting to get organized for years but was never quite sure how to tackle this beast of a project as I knew it would be a major undertaking. I am beyond thrilled and so extremely happy with the work that Shellie, Nicole and Elizabeth did... they are the BEST!!! From the moment they arrived until the time they left... they were so professional, friendly, efficient and thorough... I can't say enough positive things about all three of them!. It's so wonderful to be able to actually walk around in my basement again... not having to step over piles, boxes & bins overflowing with years of acquired clutter. Having worked for Nordstrom in their corporate headquarters, I know all too well how important it is to have employees with strong customer service skills. The staff exceeded my expectations... they are absolutely wonderful! My entire experience with Chicago Organized Home was terrific! I'm looking forward to having them back to tackle a few other rooms I've been wanting to organize :). read more

I have used the services of Chicago Anytime Assistants for the past two years and have nothing but great things to say about this company! Pam and her staff are incredibly detail-oriented, efficient and creative. From routine errands and car maintenance to gift shopping and travel arrangements, each one of my requests is handled in a professional and timely manner. CAA definitely makes me feel more productive and organized - and less stressed! Since meeting Pam, I rarely find myself racing around at the last minute to get everything done. I'm so thankful I found Chicago Anytime Assistants, and I highly recommend their services. read more

I seriously cannot say enough good things about Pam, Shellie, Nicole and the rest of the team. They have no joke been lifesavers. We are moving states and have had multiple small tasks (my husband is an Entrepreneur) that we need help with. The help with everything and anything. They are so quick to respond to emails, no matter what time of day. They have helped us set up storage units, reserve PODs, set up movers, sell furniture, UPS runs, the list goes on and on. This service is definitely worth every penny. read more

I used Chicago Organized Home to help with some genealogy research which had to be done in person at the Chicago Public Library. Since I live out of state, it was not practical for me to travel to Chicago to do the research myself. I explained what I needed and the data I was looking for and Chicago Organized Home had it for me in only a couple of days. I appreciated their professionalism, communication and promptness. I will definitely contact them again should I need any other types of services in the Chicago area. read more

Pam and team are amazing! They helped us move our entire life in less than a week. They thought of everything, helped me purge and found a spot for everything we have. I can't imagine moving without Chicago Organized Home. I wish I could hire them for a month straight~ great service, amazing team and not a detail missed! read more

This yelp review is long overdue, but no less enthusiastic! I have never used a personal assistant service before so thanks for yelp reviews helping me find Chicago Anytime Assistants and Pam Sherman. From our first conversation, I knew this was going to be a great experience. Pam and I spoke on the phone and arranged a time to meet to discuss my task. Pam came prepared with a detailed description about her business, how she works with clients, billing, and the types of services they provide. As a personal assistant 'newbie' I found all of that very helpful. We discussed my task and she documented everything throughout the conversation. When she got back to the office she followed up with a written summary of what we agreed to. Throughout the time we worked together, I always received a detailed description of the tasks performed and any related costs within hours of our tasks being completed. We'll definitely use them again....My husband and I keep joking that we're looking for things to send them to do! read more

I simply can't say enough positive things about this remarkable organization. They are AMAZING. I was drowning under both routine weekly tasks as well as a backlog of larger items that I needed to catch up on. They have changed my life. There are two things that are remarkable: 1) that they consistently find ways to surprise and delight and 2) the resourcefulness with which they solve problems. They're great at handling routine needs like changing light bulbs, getting things mailed, restocking the fridge and supplies, etc. I'd trust them with anything. But here's the diversity of projects they have handled FLAWLESSLY for me: sold a car -- including getting multiple quotes from dealers, getting a power of attorney, and executing all paperwork; secured all city stickers, etc. as I changed several vehicles; found a junk dealer to haul away materials on short notice; had a repairman determine our oven could not be fixed ... then provided me with five oven options, ordered my selection, arranged to be here for install and -- when the oven company wouldn't take the old one because a dead mouse was behind it -- both cleaned the dead mouse AND got that junk dealer to come take the oven. They had outlets installed by the bed, found someone to caulk the shower (and suggested we replace some parts while at it), figured out and ordered a cord that was missing from a printer, and a thousand other things. Amazing. Just amazing. Changed my life. read more

I've been a loyal client of Chicago Anytime Assistants for over a year. Pam and her staff and professional, thoughtful, and trustworthy. Pam goes the extra mile to make sure that her clients are satisfied. We've had them help us with both weekly tasks such as laundry and grocery shopping, and one-off tasks such as trip planning and coordinating a move. Pam has made our lives so much easier, and I don't know how we would have survived our busiest times without her. I have been singing her praises to my friends, and I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking help! read more

Pam was absolutely fantastic! She is extremely professional and efficient and got me a great deal on movers. She booked my move in and move out dates and elevator times as well as the movers themselves. I will definitely use her again! read more

Pam is absolutely awesome! I called from Ft Lauderdale to have her pick up pies, the day before Thanksgiving no less, and deliver to my son's dorm at U Chicago. She waited an hour, and it was only 19 degrees out. I love my son, but I would have hesitated - but Pam did it in a heartbeat. I wish I could convince her Florida is the better place to live - she wouldn't have time for other clients! read more

Amazing service that I cannot wait to make use of again. A friend gave me 5 hours of CAA time for my birthday. I hesitated calling as I could just see myself wasting the time. Then I decided to move. I called and Pam convinced me that use of the services for the moving process would be best use of the time. I supplemented the hours by purchasing more time. I took Pam at her word that CAA specialized in unpacking and organizing. Understatement! Everything was easy to arrange and they were flexible when my movers were running late. In 3 hours, 3 young ladies unpacked 99.9% of my boxes + a couple of suitcases, broke down the boxes, set up the kitchen, made two beds, and put my clothes, coats and shoes in the closets. I am still in awe that the next day, though I still had some post-move-in disarray but no boxes. They even took the boxes down to my building's dumpster. I have some hours left and can't wait to use those and more! read more

Pamela came into our home, gave me some fantastic ideas on how to organize and think about redoing some closets. She listened to what my family's needs were and did not try to oversell a bigger-than-needed solution. The finished product is fantastic- thank you Pam and Chicago Organized Home! read more

Chicago Anytime Assistants is a godsend. My fiance and I have used Pam and her staff for a few years now, mostly for dry cleaning, groceries, packages, errands etc. Once Pam actually helped me with a birthday gift by putting balloons all over my fiance's apartment while we were both at work. I have nothing but good things to say about this company and the assistants who work there. They are incredibly dependable and reasonably priced. It's such a stress reliever when you assign them to help you with something because you know with 100% confidence that it's going to be executed flawlessly. In addition to all the one-off jobs that CAA has done for us over the last few years, my already high opinion of them was recently elevated to a whole new status after our apartment flooded a couple months ago. Tons of our personal belongings got ruined and we were forced to move out immediately, resulting in a fairly stressful situation. Since we both work full-time, this would have been virtually impossible to do without CAA. Mary and a couple other assistants packed ALL of our stuff, took almost all of our clothes to dry cleaning, coordinated and oversaw the movers, and lined up a temporary storage unit. Once we found a new apartment, she once again oversaw the entire process from moving out of the storage unit into our new apartment and then unpacked the entire kitchen, organized clothes in the closet and generally got us moved in. CAA was literally a life-saver, and I can't recommend them enough. Thanks to Pam, Mary and the other great assistants. read more

I should have written this review sometime in 2011, when I first met Pam. At the time, I had moved to a condo some months before, and after still living out of boxes, it was time to call in a professional. Let me put it this way: I thought I needed a Pam, but I didn't know how much. Initially, I thought Pam (and her trusty team) would come in and take stuff out of boxes and put them where I said they should go. Eventually, however, I also discovered I didn't have time to tell them where to put stuff. Not a problem for Pam! They took stuff out of boxes, put them in logical places (i.e., the right places) labeled stuff with the label maker I had purchased but never used, set up a "donate" box so I could pull stuff out that should have never made the move in the first place, went to the store and purchased additional containers . . . you get the picture. This, my friends, was done in less than one week flat, for a very reasonable price. It was better than anything I could have pulled off even with time at my disposal. The work was so good that I was able to stay organized for many months--until my next move (more on that in a sec.). In the meantime, Pam helped me run all sorts of errands--flowers for friends, gift selection, etc. All was well, until we bought a house a year ago. I thought I'd be able to replicate what Pam had done in the old place, without Pam. I was wrong. I called Pam and she again came to the rescue. This time, I had even less time, more stuff, and more space. They went through the old drill, unpacked and organized stuff, etc. Ultimately, Pam was the one to have copies of my house keys made, and I trusted her and her team to let themselves in and out. I also needed a new cleaning service. Pam interviewed and selected the best and I was able to hire them after one meeting. In sum, Pam has saved me countless hours--and money. As in my example, you don't need to use this service everyday, but it is a nice one to have on speed dial. I highly recommend this company. read more

I really cannot say enough about how great my experience was with Chicago Organized Home. I recently moved and sought out help with packing, relocating, unpacking, and organizational services. Every step of the process was above and beyond what I could imagine. This was a one stop shop. They booked my movers, shopped for all of the necessary materials, and asked all of the right questions to determine exactly what I needed. The professional staff came to my new place and my old place and walked through exactly what I needed and wanted. After one day of packing, I could not believe just how much they were able to accomplish. They worked so efficiently and deliberately. There is no way I could have handled packing up our family on top of my busy work schedule. When they came to unpack at the new house, the magic really began. They organized my kitchen so perfectly... I am loving cooking in it. Our new house has a large finished attic that was wide open. The team brainstormed a plan for how to transform the room into a multipurpose playspace for my kids. They knew exactly what types of products would work in the space. They even went to IKEA, purchased, delivered, and assembled it all... and then put everything away. It was a miracle. I could NEVER have made that happen and especially in the quick time frame that they did it. Everyone I encountered with this business what amazing and professional. They listened to me and my needs and made perfect suggestions. We could not be happier with the outcome. This was money well spent! read more
