Has it been a smooth road?
Like any business we have ups and downs, but we are fortunate to have had a base of amazing clients who have kept us busy organizing for 20+ years.

So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Chaos To Order story. Tell us more about the business.
We are known for having a team of exceptional organizers who specialize in everything from unpacking and organizing homes, by putting every item in its place, to organizing office papers, space planning and bringing digital chaos to order.

How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
I see this industry expanding as people are becoming more aware of the benefits of hiring a professional organizer. Fast paced lives lead to over-consumption and chaos. We help simplify life and bring in a fresh perspective on personal possession and lifestyle simplification.
