Organizing From A to Z

Susan is great to work work with. She has excellent ideas for organizing, and helped me sort out what I wanted to keep in my cluttered craft room. She organized the rest in such a way that I can find stuff. Now I can craft again!

I have worked with Susan twice now and been so pleased with our work together. I know from our discussion together that she works with a range of clients with a range of needs. Some folks want full service which she can provide, but she also works with others (like myself) who are really looking to take on projects side-by-side with someone. I was always reluctant to work with an organizer because I wasn't in a place where I was really to take a leap into minimalism. I also didn't want to spend a fortune on organizational gear. Susan was the perfect person to meet me exactly where I am. She listened, asked questions about my preferences, and offered advice and suggestions to suit my lifestyle needs. On top of all that, Susan is an extremely hard-worker!! She wasted no time at all and we dove right in to get things done. And let me tell you, she doesn't slow down. We worked side-by-side. Her work style is so efficient that we got more done in one morning than I could have done myself in a month. By the end of the morning, I had an entirely functional garage space. My goals was to turn it in a game space for my three kids. Since our morning together, my garage went from an impacted space of junk to a kid-friendly ping-pong zone.

I had the best time working with Susan. She is great helping you organize, clear up and clean out your projects. I still have her in line for more projects.

Susan has been a blessing in my life. I consider myself very lucky to have crossed paths with her, thanks to Houzz.com. She has been a delight to work with, extremely professional, yet very personable and friendly. Letting someone into my bedroom is not that easy for me but having Susan was like having a trusted family member help me organize my closet which I have been unable to do. She changed the look of my bedroom with her neat organizational skills. She is very talented at her work and also has a beautiful motherly/sisterly energy which makes it very easy to trust her. I have a small closet space and didn't think anything could be done with that little space. However, to my pleasant surprise she changed the look of it and enhanced the aesthetics of my room and made it much easier to find my own clothes. The makeover of my closet and the chest of drawers has been a wonderful experience and has enhanced my own creativity due to the improved Feng-shui and a neat organized closet. Thank you Susan!!

We have recently employed Susan Gaines of the firm Organizing From A to Z to help us to pack, organize and move a life time of belongings from a 7000 square foot home to a 4000 square foot home. The overwhelming task brought terror to our bones. Susan calmed our fears immediately. She not only helped us with the things that we recognized but she also identified areas that we had not identified. She was never pushy, always making us feel like everything was our idea. There was never a task that she didn't approach with a sense of vigor and a positive attitude. She made organizing, packing and moving fun. Susan is the Mary Poppins of organizing! HIRE HER before she gets booked!

I had the best experience with Susan! She helped me get organized for a stressful move, and left my closet looking better than it's EVER looked. I will 100% be working with her again. If you want closet goals, you need to hire Susan.

Susan from Organizing from A to Z was super helpful with cleaning and organizing our garage! I would highly recommend her and will certainly use her services again in the future.

Susan is an organization professional. She helped me go through each file I had. We sorted books and reorganized my home office. It is now very operational and every paper has a place to go. I’m thrilled to know Ms Gaines and am looking forward to having her back to help organize my garage. She is delightful and does not make me feel embarrassed for my lack of organizing clutter. I am recommending her to everyone...

I consider myself a very organized person but I needed someone to help me organize my garage quickly and efficiently. Susan was the perfect person for the job. We think a lot alike and I appreciated all of her little touches (creating labels, taking things to Goodwill and sending me the receipts, putting items up for sale on local websites, etc.). She is not afraid to get her hands dirty which was helpful in our garage! I would definitely recommend her if you're itching to tackle a big organizing project.

I've worked with Organizing from A to Z on two different projects - my closet and kitchen pantry. Both projects were completed with ease, professionalism, on time and on budget. I have several more projects lined up and will definitely hire Susan when I'm ready to get started. She's patient, not too pushy (for those of us that may have a hard time letting go) and has great ideas for workspace improvement.

Susan helped me tremedously at getting rid of years of clutter (what to donate, what to sell and what to throw out). Susan also handled most of this and reorganised what remained. Setting up various rooms, organizing storage excetera. She also picked up bedding items and other needed things. Did some cleaning and gave me the moral help I needed in dealing with all of this. I highly value her opinion and honesty. I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with such issues.

After 30 years in my home, it is time for me to downsize and move closer to family. I was overwhelmed at the prospect of boxing up everything and organizing such a big move. Susan Gaines came and life became so much easier. I could not have completed this emotional undertaking without her expertise and knowledge. She organized, helped pack boxes, identified organizations that would take donations, and even took boxes of goods to the donation sites for me. After getting me ready for the move, she helped in staging the house and it is listed and ready for a new family. My genuine thanks to Susan for all her help and support.
