"Clear the Clutter for GOOD!"

Ever heard of Dashboard Cookies?

It's HOT! Getting into a super hot car is even worse. On an 80 degree day, for example, a car parked in shade could still be 100 degrees. There is even a website about how to make "Dashboard Cookies!"

Stop Paying to Store It!

A storage unit may solve a temporary problem—but many people end up paying for the same items month after month, year after year.

💰 $250/month × 36 months = $9,000

Life happens. Divorce. Downsizing. Moving. Estate cleanouts. Fire or flood restoration. Remodeling. Business inventory. Sometimes storage feels like the only option.

You don’t need a bigger home or another storage unit.

You need professional, custom solutions for the keeps that matter.

I help clients eliminate storage units, create organized storage in the home they already have, and build systems that work long-term.

❤️ Keep what matters. Release the rest.

Hazardous Waste: Each County has a Hazardous Waste Facility with set days/times for in-person drop off.

Put out free items ($50 or less resale value, big/baulky items) on the curb that are reusable/good condition. Take to thrift store what isn't taken after 1-2 days.

Additionally, you can post on OfferUp, Next Door, Facebook Buy Nothing Groups, FB Marketplace to attract local pickups so you don’t pay for hauling and your neighbors benefit directly. 

I always put on the free curb alert ads: “FREE! On curb at [address]! No holds. First come, first serve. Not checking messages. Will delete ad when all gone.”

Sick of Clutter Eating Up Your Space?

Entire Home Organizing for Alameda and Contra Costa County residents—designed for clients who are ready to fully reset their home, not just tidy a few areas.

Bay Area Professional Organizer specializes in full-home transformations using a clear, structured process that walks you step-by-step through sorting, decision-making, and creating systems that are easy to maintain long-term. This is a hands-on, guided service where I work with you directly to keep momentum strong, reduce overwhelm, and ensure steady progress toward completion.

Every project is approached as a complete reset—not piecemeal sessions—so your home functions as a whole and the results actually last.

⸻

Homes

Full-home organizing creates clarity across every space—kitchen, closets, bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, and more—so your home supports your daily life instead of working against it. I guide you through decisions efficiently and create simple, functional systems that are easy to maintain long after the project is complete.

⸻

Offices

Office organizing improves workflow, focus, and productivity through streamlined systems for both physical and digital spaces. Services include paperwork and filing systems, email and computer file organization, financial category organization, contact database setup, and workspace layout—so your office runs smoothly and supports how you work.

⸻

Storage

Storage spaces are fully integrated into the organizing process—not ignored or postponed. Garages, storage units, and overflow areas are sorted, reduced, and reorganized so everything has a clear place within your home. The goal is to eliminate unnecessary storage costs, reduce excess, and bring everything back into a functional, accessible system.

⸻

Best suited for clients who:

* Are ready to be actively involved in the process

* Want a clear plan and full-home results

* Value a structured, professional approach

* Are ready to complete the process—not start and stop

⸻

“Declutter to Destress!”

I design personalized, maintainable systems tailored to your lifestyle—supporting consistent decision-making and preventing backsliding so your home stays organized long after the work is done.

Organize vs Renovations/Selling

Was watching the Love It or List It tv show, and their main focus is usually on storage space/too cramped and cluttered. Um, hire a Professional Organizer before you spend $50-$90k on a remodel or moving altogether. An organizer can help you de-clutter, re-arrange rooms in a way you probably didn't even think of before, create more privacy and personal sanctuary, and prevent the kids' toys from taking over every single part of the home.

Wardrobe Make-Over!

Yesterday, I did a 12 hr session for a client who is moving on the 18th and hadn't started purging or packing yet. We did 100% of clothes (2 closets, 1 dresser, all laundry, 2 suitcases, floor piles), all shoes, jewelry, her nightstand/bookshelf/floor. She had to purge half her wardrobe because her new place only has one closet--accomplished!

Next: office, bathroom, several doom pile boxes.

Time to do your office!

Recent job was a client refresh for a home office purge so we can maintain our existing organizational system. Client had unearthed a few more boxes of papers and office supplies to go through. She had to unexpectedly deal with her mom's sudden passing, and was super relieved with how easily accessible all the important papers were so she could deal with the estate issues. She can also now run her business with ease! And taxes are all pretty and neat in files. She ALSO highlighted how easy it's been to maintain the house and routines in grief fog/depression thanks to us setting up systems, before her mom passed away. 

Helping clients is what drives me. Myriad of ripple effects from purging and getting professionally organized!

Kitchen Scrubbies 101

1. Did you know that you can throw your dish scrubbers in the dishwasher? Hand wash and microwave works, too. Regularly do this to kill germs/bacteria. 
   2. I personally recommend the Scrub Daddy scrubber and the new upside-down Dawn Squeeze Bottle for easy hand-washing.
   3. Throw away all those nasty scrubbers.
   4. Find a holder that ACTUALLY works for your space for all the actively-using scrubbers. Choose a model that drains well, airs out well, doesn't cause mold. I turned a pretty red vase into a scrubber caddy for one client's sink. 
   5. Store active scrubbers by kitchen sink; store excess under the kitchen sink.

How to Tackle Book Clutter

Tidy Up Tip: Spruce up your bookshelf with unique, cool, funny, eye-catching bookends. 

Ex: https://a.co/d/a2MIlgl 

📚How to Purge Your Books: 

1) Overwhelmed on where to start? Go top to bottom of your bookshelf, left to right, one book at a time, just like reading a book. ;-) 

2) Look at one book at a time, about 2-5 seconds per book, decide: "keep/dont keep," make it your mantra. Had it forever and still never read it? Don't keep. Sentimental? Keep. Already read it and not gonna re-read it? Don't keep. Outdated tech/medical/travel--recycle. Molded/Damaged? Let it go.

3) Drop book donations at your local school, library, senior center, rehab center, community center, Free Lil Library, thrift store. Have a bunch of boxes of donate? Task Rabbit app and Lugg app are same-day on-demand haulers.
