Jessica recently helped an elderly client who needed to move from her condo to be closer to her…read morefamily in WV. My client had decades worth of stuff, clutter and personal documents that Jessica painstakingly helped her go through so she could pare down. This process took several weeks since there were myriad of boxes full of papers and documents. We were finally able to help her move and we sold her condo quickly so she would have the proceeds to help her purchase another home. I couldn't have possibly taken on this project without Jessica's help. She was kind and patient with my client. I would recommend Jessica for anyone who needs to get rid of clutter, depersonalize and/or organize their space and personal affairs.

Testimonial for The Clutter Doctor!…read more In May 2020, in the early days of the pandemic, my mother died halfway across the country from me. I could not deal with the contents of her two houses in person as I always thought I would be able to. Jessica was amazingly not at all frightened by the photos I sent her and addressed all my initial concerns in a kind and straightforward way. So, I became Jessica's first virtual customer. For five months, Jessica helped me deal with the estate's trustee, the lawyer, an estranged sibling, two realtors, and two sets of movers. And, oh, yes, sorting through two large houses crammed with stuff, calmly showing me one item after another, and taking photos of everything from precious antiques to ridiculous junk. Jessica was careful, not judgmental, and easy to discuss things with --- she was always concerned to make the process easier for me even when this meant it was harder for her. Jessica really had to hunt for items in some scary areas in the houses and in countless boxes, drawers, cupboards, and closets. Jess even helped me deal with tiny nightmares like dividing up china among family members. Maybe this goes without saying, but Jessica is just so darned ORGANIZED, and good at juggling a number of things at same time. Throughout the project, Jessica gave me updates, answered all my questions quickly, and was great at confirming appointments and deadlines. I frequently admired her problem-solving skills and her double-checking of details. Jess also tackled some "above and beyond" new things for my project, like figuring out how we could share hundreds of photos using Google Photos and coping without phone service in one house and very spotty service in the other. I will always appreciate everything Jessica did for me and my family for so many months -- I truly don't think anyone else could have done this job with such patience, thoroughness, and good humor.

I have been working with Ideal Organizing Solutions (IOS) since 2015! This may be the 5th time…read moreI've had them back to help with "organizational maintenance" of our home to keep up with our ever-changing family needs. We hired IOS once again to help with downsizing of our bedrooms and upstairs living area. The professional staff arrived at my home on time. They listened to my "vision" and specific needs of our family. The IOS team and I worked collaboratively through out the day to move some outdated furniture and general decluttering of our bedrooms. We, once again, have very functional, attractive spaces on our second floor that my family will enjoy and feel comfortable in. Ideal Organizing Solutions has been helping our family for nearly 4 years and I plan to continue having them back to help us as our family and our needs change. Highly recommend. We will be hiring IOS again in the future.

Showed me around and scheduled Barb, the organizer, to come visit me and measure for bar options. This location is mainly a warehouse for their merchandise, but they have a few displays they can show you to give you an idea of their products finished look. I would have loved to see a "look book" that had pictures of actual finished similiar jobs completed by the staff at this location. I was very impressed by the receptionist's knowledge and professionalism. She handled an unexpected customer with kindness, gratitude, and the best customer service demeanor that I have seen in a long time. Bravo!

So I was referred to Cleaning Gurus by a very good friend and was super excited to work with them…read more The scheduling person was very responsive and timely. I had scheduled a deep clean, which is a 4 hour cleaning and was going to be $150 and intended to use them on a monthly bases. The day came and one cleaning professional showed up on time, at noon, and immediately went to work. They don't really talk to you about what you are looking for or what you want them to focus on. The first cleaning professional was very focused and getting stuff done. The second professional didn't show up until a little over 30 min later and she seemed very distracted by her phone. It was 2:30 and they were gone, the floors were wet but I didn't get to see what they mopped with or how. I was very confused because they definitely werent here for 4 hours and our house definitely wasn't deep cleaned. We started to look around and noticed if there is something under a couch or table or behind something they didn't pick it up. The cleaning professional in the kitchen, she was the distracted one, took all the stuff on my island and moved/piled it on a small side counter. Not organized in any sort of manner. I was going to let all that pass but then I noticed my sons knees, he's a crawler, had become a dirty brown color. I became very concerned because he crawls everywhere and I didn't want him getting sick if they floors were gross. It took numerous swifter pads to clean my floors and I don't have a very big home at all. I contacted them and let them know everything and they asked if I wanted them to send out a manager the next day to clean but I had already cleaned everything myself. You would think with the package confusion and less than satisfactory services they would offer a discount but non was given and they didn't honor their military discount either. I paid for the 2 hour service, a $90 service, but had to reclean my floors, pick up stuff from under stuff, and they didn't even touch my laundry room.

Josh and his partner were fabulous and accommodating to us still moving out while they got started! Yes, a nightmare sorta day ended with the clean up gurus, leaving my husband and I with the ah-ha moment and deep sigh of relief that we were craving. The crew even followed up the next day as lighting was poor and they wanted to ensure the windows were done to their satisfaction... talk about awesome! Every room and bathroom, nook and cranny was taken care of and I could not be any more pleased. Thank you clean up gurus!
