Hiring Dina Newman is giving yourself the best present. She has the unique ability to truly make order out of chaos. She is also very kind and patient. Our closets were a mess and now they are incredibly organized. It makes life so much better.
Description of Work: Dina organized all closets in the home. Took all out, helped go through all the clothing and home items, separated what was needed, what we would donate and then placed all back and reorganized the closets.

Excellent! I was dreading organizing my kitchen, especially cluttered pantry with its giant mess of spices and all of our pots and pans. We also need a completely new solution for our pots and pans to accommodate some mobility and health issues in the household. Dina got it all done in about four hours including relocating all of our spices to a much better and easier to access location. She also spent time afterwards and forwarded me links with options for hanging pot racks and bedroom furniture options and I took all of her advice. She follow up quickly and often and was very very helpful and very skilled.
Description of Work: Assisted with Kitchen reorganization, consulted on bedroom and living room organizations, followed up with further suggestions.

It went really well! I was taken aback at first by her 3 hour minimum and the wait took about more than a few days to schedule. Once I met her and realized how quickly she could understand my needs and make suggestions that I liked, I immediately felt I found the perfect helper. She was completely on-board with helping me draft a strategy and letting me reach out to her when I needed her help, which is great. Truly an organizational and lifestyle consultant. She even called me a few times since just to see if there was anything else she could help me with.
Description of Work: I worked with Lisa Marie and she spent time to understand my goals and patterns, then helped me come up with a strategy for organizing and maintaining my house (including plans for storage, maintenance, and build-out) that I continue to draw from almost 1 year later.

Dina was an Angel on my shoulder. I do not live in California and was blessed to have discovered such a wealth of knowledge and a person of such high integrity. She guided me through all phases of clearing my mother?s home and cheered my on through out the entire process. Her referrals, her encouragement, her honesty and integrity allowed me to complete a very difficult task with grace, honor and sense of accomplishment. Thank you Dina!!!
Description of Work: Dina came in to evaluate the needs for clearing my mother's home. After seeing the house, listening carefully to the needs of my mother and myself, she offered MANY different options, explained the details of each option and allowed the decisions to be ours. She called or emailed me almost daily and each of those contacts were made EXACTLY at the right time. Clearly she had a sense of what was needed and when it was needed.

They took things that they questioned me about and I specifically told them not to take. They took a beautiful glass bowl that my mother's mother gave me as well. They stole two of my coach purses also. I made it clear that they were not too unpack anything but she unpacked my whole kitchen and had my bedroom on the wrong floor. I really just wanted her to line the kitchen cabinets at the new home, which she did not even complete.
Description of Work: They were supposed to be an organizing provider, an organizer organizes things, they don't dispose of things. They were supposed to organize my things for the move (not throw away things).

Dear [removed member name] After working with you for 4 months and getting such great results I am shocked and disappointed that this is the kind of review that you would write. Unfortunately, this could not be further from the truth. As you may or may not recall, you hired me to assist you with downsizing, packing and unpacking and that's what we did. I have the agreement that you both signed which confirms our agreement. Due to your medical condition, MS, you were frequently confused and had memory issues. This is why we NEVER remove anything from anyone's house without their authority and permission which, we did. Any and all items removed from your house was done so with your authorization. You were always there and worked with us. We not only have this agreement in writing with regard to such donations, we have witnesses as we always work in teams. At the end of the four months, we, 8 moving men and 4 organizers, worked diligently to pack and unpack your home. We also understand that after working so hard for so long (8 hours for 4 days) that you have tried to reverse the entire charge for the movers. We worked for months trying to help you and we all, at the last minute, accommodated your change of plans. We, twelve of us, drove to Henderson, Nevada to help you unpack to your physical limitations and stayed until the job was done. We worked ten hours each day for 5 straight days to move you and when we were done, your new home looked like you'd been there forever. We are all amazed that after all of us worked so hard for you that you would do this to the moving company and my company. SHAME ON YOU! Regretfully, Dina Newman

I am selling them on Amazon but apparently review are really important and I would love to hear from my clients as to how they?re using them, etc. I first met Dina Newman several years ago when she organized my studio apartment in Santa Monica. It was my first time living alone, and Dina came up with the most amazing storage-saving ideas! She has the coolest gadget called a "stock-it-pocket", which we used over my bathroom door to neatly arrange all of my bathroom items. You can even buy more through Amazon whenever you need them. Every time I have had someone over since Dina's session with me, that person has, without fail, commented on how much they love the lay-out of my place! I have never been happier in a living situation before, and that is 100% due to Dina Newman and her organization of my apartment! Recently, I had to move from Los Angeles back to my hometown of Manhattan. Lucky for me, I had Dina to help me once again! Dina and her team packed up every single piece of my LA life and got it all shipped to New York for me. She TOTALLY took all the stress out of moving! Dina handled all of the donations to Goodwill/Salvation Army, and she coordinated all deliveries with the moving company! I honestly don't know what I would do without Dina and her company. She is always reliable. When Dina makes you a promise, she delivers, every time. She and her colleagues are also just super fun to work with! Moving is one of the things we all hate to do, but Dina actually made it easy. Literally easy. In the blink of an eye, I turned around and my entire apartment was already taped up in boxes ready to be shipped! Incredible. She gave me the time I needed to have some last-minute fun with my friends in LA, rather than spending it cooped up in my place, packing and stacking boxes. I can never thank her enough for that :)
Description of Work: Organized my entire apartment & moved all of its contents across the country for me Handled all aspects of the moving process (donations, provided tape/boxes, etc.)

Organizing Concepts and Designs was fantastic to work with. They were always on time and treated my items as if they were their own. When you have someone in your home going through your personal items, you want someone you can trust...and Dina and her team were kind and made me feel confident that I had made the right choice.
Description of Work: I was putting my house on the market and I hired Organizing Concepts & Designs to help me get ready. I really couldn't have done it without Dina and her team. She went through everything in my home where I have lived for 16 years and created piles for donation, keep and trash. She recommended wonderful providers that included a haul away service, window washers, and handyman. All were top notch! Dina rearranged furniture, moved artwork, packed boxes and made my home look fantastic. Her recommendations on trashing some items was hard to take, but I went along and now wonder why I saved some things I did. She made getting ready for a sale easy, fun (at times) and simple to maintain. When I am ready to move into my new place, my first call will be to Organizing Concepts and Designs for packing, unpacking and organization in my new home.

I am a type "A" personaIity! I started the process by wanting to "quickly organize my house". What I learned was that it was a "journey". My home didn't get cluttered overnight and it didn't get organized overnight...It is a process and a lifestyle but very much worthwhile! My life is so much easier now that it is organized and I am more successful in my business and personal life! Thank you Dina for all you've taught me!
Description of Work: Dina helped me to organize my entire home and in turn my life! We first walked through each area of my living space and came up with a purpose for that particular room. It was a very cathartic experience and I still use many of the tools Dina taught me on a daily basis! It was worth every penny! Dina is a true gem and very talented!! I think of her as a "personal trainer" for decluttering!!!!
