Our goal is to create a home for our client that’s organized, functional, easy to maintain and beautiful.

THE ORDERLY SORT TEAM

Getting organized is a process, and it can be overwhelming knowing where to start or even trying to figure out when you’re going to squeeze the time into your overflowing schedule. That’s where our custom organizational plans create vision and action steps so our client and the team know where to start and how to best reach the goals she has.

We understand how it is to be incredibly busy with kids, a husband, and work and need several extra sets of hands to get the work done. Our all-inclusive organizing services free our client up to be able to do other important tasks while we carry out the work. And when we leave your home we’ll haul away a load of trash, donations and/or recycling with us. That’s one thing that our clients tell us they love… that it can be done and the excess gone that day! And there’s no extra charge for a haul away load.

We hear clients say all the time that they could organize someone else’s house, but when it comes to their own they get completely overwhelmed. We get it. It’s helpful to have a fresh pair of eyes to bring new vision to a space, and have everything organized in a way that’ll work well for you and your family.

We won’t just simply organize your belongs and hope you can carry on with it. We’ll take the time to understand how you live and function in your home and we’ll create systems that will be easy for you and your family to maintain long after we’re done. And if you need our assistance throughout the year we can come for refresher/tidy-up sessions.

It brings us joy to declutter, organize and create systems for our clients. We’re so blessed to offer this service that we enjoy doing and that helps others along the way.

Testimonials

“Penny is amazing! Penny is worth every penny. She is full of energy and enthusiasm. We just moved into a new home and we had 100 boxes that needed to be opened. While we were completely overwhelmed, she and her team marched in with a smile and got us through the cloud of boxes in 3 days! My husband and I feel like a king and queen living in our beautiful home with everything organized and categorized so perfectly. Need help in finding the perfect places for your fine art? She can help with that too! She will also teach you how to properly fold. Our master closet, which is a huge room unto itself, looks like a department store, including every drawer! It is so much fun getting dressed in the morning as everything is color coded and in categories. I feel like I am simply shopping in my closet every morning! Our huge walk in pantry layout is incredible! Spices laid out in tiers and alphabetical order with cookbooks lined up by color. She is amazing!” - M.T. of Wake Forest

“We hired Penny to help declutter & organize our office and office closet. In the time frame we had, we were also able to go through the kitchen pantry and a few cabinets too! With my husband and I both working full-time and young kids at home, we accomplished way more in five hours than me and my husband could do alone in several months. Penny is very hardworking and non-stop the entire time she is there. It was certainly well worth the cost as she nearly performed miracles in our home in just a few hours! She was very easy to work with and nonjudgmental as our home was pretty chaotic. We are very pleased and will likely be reaching out to her again soon to tackle other parts of our home!” - D.S. of Raleigh

“I am so happy I finally called Penny to help me clear the clutter from the surfaces of my kitchen/dining/family room! I contacted Penny with the problem that all of my horizontal surfaces had too much stuff on them, making it hard to find space to eat at the table or island or to do a craft with my son or to just not see all the junk. Penny knew that meant I needed decluttering and organizing help. I thought my cupboards were pretty well organized, but Penny found and made space to move things off my surfaces and into hidden spaces (cupboards, baskets, etc.). Penny worked efficiently and quickly and didn’t waste a single minute of her allotted time. She helped me so much to identify duplicate items, items I didn’t need to keep, to rearrange and save space, and I am so happy that I can see and use my flat surfaces again. I will definitely call her for help in my bedroom spaces in the future. Thank you, Penny!” - S.B. of Raleigh

“My garage was overwhelming and it was frustrating to find tools, do projects, and be in the space. Penny came in and started working right away, and didn't need much direction from me. There was no judgement or pressure. When she needed my opinion for a specific placement, she was open and generous. It was easy and therapeutic working with her and her son, and it feels SO NICE to walk into my garage (just THAT is amazing!) and want to hang out in there and do my projects. I can find tools and I'm not three steps behind at the get go due to the simple frustration I used to feel from the space. I love this woman for giving me that space and freedom from the burden of clutter.” - M.C.W. of Wake Forest

“Penny is amazing! I am a pretty organized person but wanted someone to help make our master closet and pantry look like my favorite Pinterest photos. Penny exceeded all expectations!! She went above and beyond in everything she did! Penny is fantastic to work with and made me feel like we had been friends for years! She took the stress out of the entire process. She found all of the items (baskets, hangers, jewelry organization, fancy labels, pantry pieces, etc). She measures everything and took lots of pics and sent over several suggestions for us to pick from. She picked everything up from various stores, made returns and took away all donations and discarded items. She even brought me a Starbucks! She was punctual, organized and trustworthy. Anyone would be lucky to have her assist them. I will definitely be using her again in the future and recommend her to everyone I know! Penny you are the best!! Thank you!” - — S.T. OF WAKE FOREST, NC

“Penny Oakes is the BEST! She helped me clean out and organize my garage from years of clutter and junk! She’s so energetic and she doesn’t waste ANY time! She loads up the trash and everything you want to give away as she cleans and organizes, then hauls it all away with her when she’s done! I’m no longer afraid to open my garage door and I definitely plan to hire her again for other areas of the house!” - S.W. OF WAKE FOREST, NC
