It Starts With Learning About Your Closet
Every closet and every client is different, so the first step is learning more about your project.
When you contact My Professional Organizer, either by calling us at (504) 238-4100 or filling out our online contact form, we’ll schedule a phone consultation to learn more about your closet and your goals.
During the consultation, we’ll discuss questions like:
- Are you looking for help decluttering and organizing your closet, or just organizing it?
- Do you want help unpacking and organizing your closet from a recent move?
- Do you want help organizing and packing up your closet before a move?
- What’s currently not working in your closet?
- What would you like your closet to look and function like?
- Are you interested in organizing products?
- Which closets would you like help with?
We’ll also have you send us photos of your closet so we can better understand the space and recommend the right amount of time, provide pricing, and explain exactly how we can help.

We Can Help You Declutter Your Closet
Some clients hire us because they need help deciding what to keep and what to let go of.
If you’d like help decluttering, we’ll first help you go through your belongings and decide what you’d like to keep, donate, or throw away before we begin organizing.
Decluttering helps create more space, makes organizing easier, and allows you to keep the items you truly use and enjoy.
Of course, decluttering is always optional.
Some clients have already decluttered before we arrive or simply don’t need help with that part of the process. In those cases, we’ll jump right into organizing.
We Organize and Create Custom Closet Systems Based on Your Needs
Once we’re ready to organize, we’ll create organization systems that fit your closet and how you actually use it.
Every closet is different, so we customize every project based on the client.
Depending on your closet, we may:
- Fold clothing
- Sort and categorize belongings
- Organize clothing by category or season
- Create designated homes for items
- Wipe down shelves before organizing
- Label storage containers when appropriate
- Organize drawers, shelves, and hanging clothing
- Recommend organizing products if they’ll improve the space
Whether we’re organizing a walk-in closet, reach-in closet, linen closet, hallway closet, or storage closet, our goal is to create a space that’s both beautiful and functional.
We Can Also Remove Your Donations
If we’ve helped you declutter your closet, we can also assist with taking your donations to a local donation center.
Even if you’ve already decluttered before we arrive, we’re often happy to take your donations with us as long as we know at the beginning of the organizing session.
It’s one less thing you have to worry about.
We Can Help You Organize and Pack Up Your Closet Before a Move
If you’re moving or having your closet renovated, we can help pack everything up before the work begins.
One of the advantages of hiring a professional organizer is that we pack your belongings in an organized and intentional way. If your closet is currently cluttered or disorganized, we can help fold clothing, sort shoes, organize accessories, and categorize your belongings before packing them into boxes.
Packing this way makes unpacking much easier later, whether our team returns to unpack and organize your new closet or you choose to unpack everything yourself. Instead of opening boxes filled with miscellaneous items, you’ll have organized categories that make settling into your new or renovated closet much faster and less stressful.
Can you help before a closet renovation or custom closet installation?
Yes. If you’re moving or having your closet renovated, we can help pack everything up before the work begins.
We also frequently help clients prepare for a custom closet installation. If you’re having a walk-in closet, reach-in closet, or other custom closet system built, we’ll organize and pack up your clothing, shoes, accessories, and other belongings so the closet design company has a clear space to complete the installation.
