Orderly Konduct, LLC Organizing & Design

Not only is this a reputable company, but Nina Donnelly and her team are efficient, on time, respectful, and highly professional. They are worth every single penny! The team helped me sort through our stuff with no judgement. Then, Donnelly *listened* when I had ideas and then improved on them. She took our plain room and made it look like a magazine! I would highly recommend this company to my family and friends. In fact, we like this company so much we hope to have them come back soon and help us tackle our bedroom and office.

1) Nina is highly effective and focussed.  She has been organizing for years and was fine with my numerous questions.  
Releasing family papers and items can be overwhelming, so having a professional work along with me made the process much easier and faster than on my own, particularly as my dad has passed and my mom has dementia and is frail and unable to assist.
2) the prepwork suggestion was very useful and I was able to release several boxes of recycling and shredding before our session
3) her time estimate was accurate;  I mis understood something she'd emailed to me so we had to use time to go purchase some items.
4) the changes in the two areas are amazing -- I am using her suggestions to continue releasing things we don't need and have filled another recycling bin full of papers.

If you have been thinking about hiring a professional organizer and have been doing your research, look no further! Nina Donnelly is the one that you want and you will be so glad that you hired her!

Love how everything turned out. Cant wait to have Nina come back and work on our personal space.

She is very efficient and gets to work right away!  We would start in one room, get rid of unnecessary clutter and box what I intend to keep.  I've used other organizers in the past but she is at the top of the list!  She is very thoughtful and generous. I wouldn't use any other organizers but her.

She stuck to her word with price, the time she was going to be there, etc. She organized the kitchen to where it looks better, operates more efficiently, and is user friendly. I highly recommend her.

Nina is an amazing organizer. She's creative, intuitive, intelligent, and wonderful! I have hired organizers through the years, but Nina was the only one I would say really understood us from the get-go - even when it was difficult for us to explain what we needed.
We are on the road a lot, so we don't have much time to come back and declutter or go through closets. With her assistance, we can now park 2 cars in our garage!

The cost of service is likely wrong, but it was in that range.  She never showed and sent me a handful of snarky/b****** texts.  I said, "Check your attitude at the door." and then she said maybe we're not a good fit.  Meanwhile, the maid service I hired did an outstanding job that should have been separate.  Her loss.  DO NOT HIRE.

Nina was extraordinarily patient and professional in her approach to our home.  She helped to weed through and get rid of countless loads of donations and items to auction.  The most important values she helped teach me was what to keep and what to not keep...   She helped me reclaim my home and make it our home again instead of a collection of items I really didn't like and really didn't want-- but felt I had to keep.  She didn't just offer an extraordinary sense for organization-- she helped me to utilize my resources and save immensely on reconfiguring and making my home in to a place I could call my own again.  She also created a greater sense of purpose and value by minimizing clutter and maximizing function according to our family's needs.  Our project took roughly 3-4 months due to its' magnitude-- but the time was well spent with her continual support and motivation.   There are still some rooms I am working on due again to the magnitude of the project (Sadly we were one dead cat under a chair away from having the amount of thing some hoarders have-- minus the actual trash and fecal matter!)  
Bottom line is Nina has saved me far more than she cost!   The time and money spent on things we didn't need is unbelievable-- Nina doesn't just help you to organize your house-- she helps you get your life back!!  With many of the things I am so absolutely happy I got rid of to auction I was able to redo many of the rooms to reflect the person and purpose of each room.  In addition, she gave very valuable organization methods and ideas that have been priceless!!!  My first days of being able to have people walk through the house without closing every door in front of them or make excuses has helped me regain the desire to have more people to our house.  
These Do's and Don'ts are really geared to help while working with Nina and to help those who might be overwhelmed at this point and want real solutions!   
Don't mistake my list of do's and don't as applying to your needs if you have a smaller project such as a closet etc.,. I know she has had ample clients who hire her to just organize their closets-- and she does a really great job!!!  They even would hire her to just work on them by herself if it was a particularly small project...  She has a portfolio of really great examples....  Very well worth the investment in hiring her for all size jobs!!!  If she helped with ours-- no doubt she can help with yours!!!
Do-- Start moving--get more information--it does not hurt to find out what it would cost for you...
don't sit around waiting for it to happen-- if you are annoyed by all the things that need to be done and feel like you will never get it under control-- you need to take action and get your life back!!!   Whether you hire Nina or not-- if your reading this review you know you need help!  That starts with you!  I do hands down recommend Nina- but you have to decide what works best for you...  Do your research and I believe you won't disagree but again-- it is up to you...
Do's-- if it is overwhelming--get help!!!  I preferred Nina to the other's I looked at because she is professional and on task and good at helping to maintain focus on the task that needs to be done.  She is not wishy washy-- she is action not just words or promises....  She never showed up late or cancelled without ample and professional notice which really kept me from losing stride....  The only time she had to cancel was extremely understandable and was handled with great respect for me and my time...  You will not have a day that you are wasting your time waiting...  
Do's -- Let Nina lead-- keep an open mind to new ideas and methods
Don't--get in your own way by holding too fast to the ideals that haven't helped you fix the problem before you looked for assistance or help-- If it didn't work so far it wont work now....
Do's- Schedule your times with Nina so that her talents are utilized in the best way possible-- her job is to help you organize your belongings-- not move them for you...  So you may schedule 2 days on and 2 days off if you have a really large project-- let her direct the large sorts and have someone to come in the following day to help with more detailed sorting and move things out....
Do's-- If when she leaves there are certain things that need to be done before your next appointment-- make those things a priority or you wasting your time and money.  Nina is geared to helping you in a way to save money--not waste money!  She is not going to try and drag out things just to earn more hours-- the amount of time it takes for you to complete your journey is going to be paced by your contribution....  With Nina as with any other help-- the more your work the faster it will be completed.
Don't expect someone else to do it all for you-- you have to be ready to really change the way your thinking and doing things if the way you are doing it is simply not working...  You have to not only want the change but be willing to make the change in your mind.  I say this again because once you have made the journey that I have made-- you will be able to reclaim so much you are losing to the stress of dealing with all the crap-- frustration caused by and time lost to continually looking for items in your home-- you end up losing time that you could be using to spend doing the things you really want or need to get done...   
Do's get the whole family on board-- if clutter is taking over your time and resources-- it is not bringing the happiness and quality of life you and your family deserves...  The sacrifices of stuff you might think you need will in the end be great gains in other areas.   If the family is not on board and you have to decide that you are going to take your home back by yourself- remember it is your home!  You own it not your kids!!! 
Do's-- if you have a ton of stuff-- a storage unit delivered might be useful to put things for garage sale/auction/or items you would like to decorate with later...  HAVE BOTH BIG AND SMALL EMPTY CONTAINERS to help sort if you have a ton of stuff
Don't think you have to spend a fortune on redecorating-- so many things can be refinished or repurposed and is just in the wrong place right now-- get creative!!!   Sometime lower cost items can still look high dollar-- so don't limit your scope while redecorating!
If you are reading this far-- remember at this point if you are series-- the consequence of inaction is going to far out way your actions-- you can do it and you are worth doing it for-- not matter what your next step is-- have a game plan-- set goals-- take baby steps if need be-- but do something!!!    :-)  Good luck and remember- you don't have to be a person or family that makes everyone feel better about theirs in your mind!!!   Make the journey home to you-- you command your ship with your actions or inaction's!!!  
I hope this helps those who are reading it both in telling about Nina's immense worth and how she can help-- but also to motivate you to empower yourself!!!  Please understand that had I not hired Nina-- I wouldn't be able to write this today...  I might have found someone to help or I might be still trying to work my way through it all...  Either way I have no regrets and am in such a great place because of Nina's help I am truly happy with my decision to hire her...  For me I know I couldn't have done it with out her help...  Not because I am incapable or feeble minded-- but because at some point enough is enough-- and we all need assistance at some point.  I was beyond that point due to a profound sense of pride in being able to do it all my self-- but I lost so much time that could have been used in more enjoyable and valuable ways trying to prove my abilities as one person...  But no one pers

I inherited a four bedroom home with 2 storage units plus another storage unit off-site. Nina was punctual and came with a plan each day that we worked together. She was fast and efficient and made the most of each minute. We zipped through several filled to capacity rooms and storage units and pared them down to very minimal items. Nina was motivated but very patient with me as well. With her help, I feel like we accomplished months worth of work in only a few days. I honestly could not have done this task without her. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with her again in the near future.

Nina evaluated the space where we create our custom cakes as well as our personal cooking space to determine needs for organization. She took the time to thoroughly understand our work process for the bakery, our personal needs in terms of the space, how to reorganize to satisfy personal preferences and working style. The entire process was awesome! Nina was able to help me transform a chaotic workspace into one that is calm and attractive. Everything has its own place and there is no more searching for the many small tools required for a cake decorator.
As we worked through the process, Nina included me in the decisions and the work giving me an amazing sense of empowerment to continue with the process in my art studio. Our small bakery looks wonderful, feels peaceful and makes we want to get in there and do some fantastic cake designs! Thank you Nina!
