Order is Key

Creating the Space You Need

Organizing is a process—one that moves you from blockage to freedom. It requires accountability, responsibility and the willingness to change. Reevaluating the items you have ensures you keep only the things you truly need and want. I work efficiently and expediently to empower you in reaching your organizing goals as well as with a sense of humor to make the experience enjoyable.

Our Services

Home & Office Organizing

Our homes are often busy places with kids, pets and adults using the same areas for multiple purposes and as a result, items often pile up at the front door/entry, on kitchen counters, dining room tables and desks, and in corners of rooms and on stairways. By eliminating the unnecessary, establishing new homes for each item and developing new habits and behaviors, clutter disappears.

Home offices require efficient use of space as well as effective paper/mail management systems so important documents, mail and correspondence are stored for easy retrieval and usage. I help set up easy to use filing systems for organized papers you need and use.

Packing/Unpacking Help

Moving is one of life’s most stressful events, from managing the packing process to ensuring everything makes it to its new home in one piece. One of the most commonly overlooked components is sorting out what’s not needed so you take only what you want. I help you cull out things you don’t need and move only the essentials.

Unpacking has it’s own stress of getting everything out of boxes and into a designated space AND in an organized way. I specialize in getting your new home organized from the beginning so you can begin using various rooms right away.

Space Planning Specialist

Using our spaces effectively whether its a utility drawer, a closet or an entire room requires a keen eye and knowledge of the right tools and infrastructure to ensure that area work to its utmost. I help you maximize key areas to increase functionality, storage and aesthetics.

Hauling Services

My goal is to redirect as much material from the landfill as possible by recycling and donating items to facilities and locations that can responsibly reuse or recycle. For a flat rate, depending on how many stops and the amount I remove, I will gladly take away unwanted things to the best possible locations.

-Kelly Cuadra, Event Specialist
Living in a large ranch style home, I have found it challenging to keep order with a two year old and a variety of sports gear of my husband’s. I hesitated to hire an organizer and realized I couldn’t manage these things on my own. I heard of Steve’s work from a friend and had him assess the space and what I needed. I immediately felt at ease and knew he was there to work with me and to help me find solutions for what I needed. Steve is a great listener and created space for all of my husband’s equipment and expanded my space in the garage as well. He came up with fun and creative solutions for my son’s toys and things in color coded bins that helps him put his items away when he’s done with them. Steve’s artistic flair helped enhance my home’s functionality and beauty.

I needed to purchase a variety of containers in which to sort various belongings. Steve is budget savvy and knew the stores and online sellers so I could get the best deals and work within my budget. I am so thrilled to have my home have greater usability and function as well as a unique flair for what could have been a boring and utilitarian outcome.

No matter the size of any given task, Steve’s creative space organization will enhance the quality of your home or business and give you an environment that will help you to THRIVE!

-Shana Draggoo, Roots Floral, Wedding Coordinator/Floral Design
Steve’s bright, competent and hard working capabilities have helped me run an event and floral division of Northern California’s largest prop and tenting company. I can give him the specifics for any event and, with his skill, speed and creative agility, I know that he will deliver what I need as promised to the client. He works great with other employees and has such a positive and upbeat demeanor, it is a pleasure being around him.

Steve has helped me and my assistant with keeping the event’s organized and arriving to their destination on time and in perfect condition. He facilitates keeping the work space clean, organized and managing the tools we use so they are easily located for other’s use.

He recently helped me in my home. I gave birth a year ago and have been busy raising my daughter and working. As a working mother, I find it challenging to keep order in my home where space is at a premium. With the barrage of baby gifts and clothing I received, they had become piled high in the living room along with assorted magazines on my coffee table and a large stack of mail that I didn’t want to deal with. Steve eagerly pulled all the mail out and we began sorting, purging and filing. I was thrilled to see my entry table surface again and to have important bills and documents I could easily and quickly locate. We purged the magazines and sorted all the baby’s clothing into clear bins marked by ages up to 4T! These went to the garage and I had a great part of my living room back. My dining table had become a catchall for clothing and purses and these things were sorted and put where they belonged and I had yet another clear surface to enjoy and use.

Steve has a natural finesse and ability to assess an organizing dilemma and arrive at great, workable solutions. I was initially embarrassed to have him see the state my house was in. Yet, with a gracious and non judgmental attitude, I quickly gave in to his organizing skills and am so glad I did.
