Yelp Review
Hoarding runs in my family. I also live down the street from the mall, so instead of doing laundry, some weekends I just buy new clothes to go out in. I’ve also lived in the same apartment for 10 years, so no opportunity to purge when moving house. I have literally filled up every storage space then covered the floors with clothes and junk.
I have 4 closets between my two bedrooms and yet still there is not enough room for all my clothes and other nonsense.
Enter Organizing Boston.
After installing new Elfa closet systems and explaining to me why I don’ t need every t-shirt I wore in college or 2 dressers full of socks (yes, not kidding. 8 sock drawers!) We filtered out the giant pile of clothes for donations in one of the photos (over $550 value on Goodwill est. for my taxes!) and now every item of clothing, shoe, and even my hats have dedicated space. I even have EXTRA space.
We didn’t need the new closet systems, but man it makes a HUGE difference. Highly recommended!!!
I wouldn’t/haven’t ever done it on my own. It’s well worth the modest investment to have Organizing Boston help you. They really make sense and talk you out of random crap that has been lying around for years. It truly is an investment in your own well being.
In just 3 weeks, my habits have changed dramatically regarding what I do with my stuff when I’m done with it. I could go from -cleaning lady just left- to tornado hit in about 10 minutes, before. Mostly because if I put something away, it meant shoving it in a random free space or leaving it near the closet. That is not really possible anymore and that feels good. I can’t make a mess, so I don’t have to pick up after myself. Win Win.
My cleaning lady of 7 years came by on Monday and I showed her everything. She was so proud of me. I admitted to having help, but she still gave me a hug and said how great it will be to have space to put things away.
Thanks Organizing Boston! I’m definitely feeling good about my living space for 2013.
(I can’t figure out how to post photos, but I’m sure O.B. will post them on the website. I’m a before/after poster child!)
