How to Prepare for a Move With an Organizer

Moving is one of life’s most stressful transitions, but it can also be a powerful opportunity for a fresh start. Working with a professional organizer before a move reduces overwhelm, minimizes what you move, and sets you up for success in your new home.

When should I hire an organizer before a move?
Ideally, an organizer should be brought in several weeks before packing begins. This allows time to declutter and plan intentionally.

Organizers help clients sort, purge, and categorize belongings so only what truly serves your life is moved.

Does organizing before a move save money?

Can organizers help with packing and unpacking?
Many organizers provide full-service move support, including packing, unpacking, and setting up systems in the new home.

How does organizing help after the move?
Organizers create functional systems immediately, helping families settle in faster and avoid clutter from day one.

Is move organizing helpful for large homes or families?
