Description of Work: They helped to sort and organize my tools and workspace.

Description of Work: We worked on organizing our basement and it was great. Both were very professional and hardworking.

Description of Work: I have put off this review because I don't like giving negative reviews. But they keep asking so here it is. Two people came and moved things around in my home. I physically needed the help at the time, but didn't realize or misunderstood the costs after the initial special. It was way over priced. The helper person moved things while the owner worked with me making decisions.They moved many items to the rooms they belong and some boxes downstairs for later. I had just moved home and my back was out, so it was nice to have a clear path in main living areas. Although, I understood their reasoning regarding putting things in the rooms they belong, then working on organizing each room later, I didn't realize they would place items in the doorways of those rooms.I expected they would have gone further inside before sitting things on the floors. One thing I know about organizing and time management is that you don't move the same items again and again. Since I was paying by the hour and my back was out it seemed a purpose full maneuver. I felt I was being forced to pay to have them back. I didn't because of the cost and thus had to suffer through the pain to move items they had placed in the doorways to get into my rooms. They would have done the same thing had I had them back. I would have paid them to move the same stuff again.This realization left me cold to the idea of having them back even if I saved the money to do so. I think it was irresponsible to leave things so unsafe. I think they didn't expect me to use the rooms since they thought they would be back. I thought they were generally nice and didn't mean any harm. However the owner is definitely about making money. I did not experience her as kind as some have reported. The kindness was only when she would be talking to me about paying for their services. I believe their type of service is needed, but not at Arizona prices. I would be cautious about how I use them. Be specific to areas, have a plan and stick with it. Most of what they teach is available online. Getting organized is not complicated if you break it down in segments and be willing to let go of some things. Take pictures of those things you want to remember, but have no room for anymore. Learn to live with an imperfect home as well. Life is too short.

Description of Work: Helped my son organize room. Did nice job, just not exactly what i elected as service.

Description of Work: While I really didn't want to write a review (not looking forward to a "you shouldn't have had a disability and needed our services" type response), I feel it is important that other women, finding themselves in a similar situation and needing help, be aware that they really may not getting caliber help for the Deal that they would expect. | |Based on the Angie's List input, I thought I was working with a reputable firm, not a "clearing house".(?) (Pun not intended.) By the way, when they arrived, these gals had no identification linking them to Perfectly Placed Organization and Design. No ID. Nothing. Just first names. So I just had to trust these gals. They did a decent job. | |Apparently my work was outsourced to 2 independent women who, before they left, told me that I should contact "what was the name of that company?" "oh, yeah, Perfectly Placed" for some additional help in my home. Then Zip - they were in their car and driving off. Then just WHO WERE THEY? What was their relationship with Perfectly Placed? Subcontractors? | |My Main Concern was that the 2 gals did not LQQK at papers they were throwing away and they did not ask questions about papers - every piece of paper was pitched. | |My town uses blue bags for recycling. After they left, I checked the blue bags for papers (to be recycled) and was shocked to find important business letters and legal documents had been stuffed in them. | |I would expect that "professional organizers" would have felt important papers were important and would have set them aside. That simple. |This should be obvious for people chose organizing as their trade. | |For that reason, I cannot give a higher grade today (though I really wanted to). | |(As Vince Lombardi would say to his Green Bay Packers at practice the day after a loss, "Gentlemen, this is a football.") | |Back to the basics, please. Thank you. | |My advice to someone using their service, have penciled down some expectations to give some guidance. (I never would have guessed this would be needed, but we can all learn here and have better experiences.) |

Description of Work: Reorganized my kitchen cabinets and helped me get rid of a lot of the extra clutter. My kitchen flow has greatly improved -- I wish I would have done this a long time ago. It truly has made my life easier and time in the kitchen more effective and enjoyable. Everything has its proper place and I can find exactly what I need when I need it!

Description of Work: My husband and the Perfectly Placed girls purged and organized the garage/workshop. They had a very logical and thorough approach and really went through every detail! Everyone was very pleasant and punctual and ... organized!

Description of Work: Organized basement. Great job!

Description of Work: I got the 3-hr package and wasn't sure what to expect, having not worked with any organizers before. Susan came and I liked that she talked with me about my needs before we began doing anything. I felt like she really tried to understand what I needed and work with what I have. She taught me some skills in addition to helping me organize our kitchen pantry, which was a disaster. She set up a system that works and easy to maintain. Love the results and I highly recommend this company to anyone, especially if you're like me and don't know where to start!

Description of Work: Organized our basement. What they did was fine but it took way too long and way too exoensive

Description of Work: Helped to organize office

Description of Work: As an organizer Susan knew just how to help me. I was lost in a sea of papers that I did not know how to organize and they just kept piling up. On her first visit she asked me some questions about what I wanted to achieve. She gave me a system of what to file and what to throw away. |She even helped me go through stuff and as I did that, she was busy clearing off spaces that had been cluttered. I highly recommend her services. She is professional and very understanding of situations like mine.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for $99 for 3 hours of Professional Home Organization Services!

Description of Work: Declutter, cleaned up and organized one-car oversized detached garage space to accommodate yard and garden equipment, bicycles and sports gear, outdoor house and holiday decor, storage for some household furnishings, and ample room left to park vehicle!!! They did a great job! Used their time effectively and efficiently. They listened, were very knowledgeable and incorporated my suggestions, too. Easy to work with and they did an excellent job.

Description of Work: I bought a Big Deal for $189 for 6 hours of Professional Home and/or Garage Organization Services.

Description of Work: We used a 6 hour special available through Angie's List. I expected that the six hours would be two 3 hour sessions with time for me to do some "homework" in-between. Rather it was two ladies for three hours. This worked okay but was more difficult for me to work with them collaboratively since they were in different rooms. I probably also overestimated how much we would get done, so between these 2 issues it was a bit anti-climactic. The ladies were nice, responsive & respectful; so when I save up the money I may use her again, but would probably prefer just one lady at a time with assignments between sessions.

Description of Work: Susan and Melissa have helped us in our effort to downsize and move. I was worried about "judgement" put those concerns to rest, they do not judge. They have been hands on as well as helping me set resonable goals that I have been able to achieve. We have contracted additional time with them and I think that is the highest recommendation I can give for their services.

Description of Work: It went just fine. Trouble is...I need her again. |I used the most time just to get started and to understand the process. | |Overall, I am very pleased.
