Disposal Resources

 

“Tiffany is incredible and definitely not afraid of the ‘dirty work’. She helped me tackle our garage & attic; the attic had not been touched in years! Yet, we were able to get it organized in one day. Tiffany was excellent in helping to pull everything out, sort through everything & decide what to toss, donate, keep and then put things all back perfectly.”

My Business Has Been Re-Organized…

As many of you know, I have stepped away from my organizing business and am referring all my business to Mary Jo Contello of Organized by MJ. I’ve known Mary Jo since 2016, we are both members of NAPO, and I’ve worked with her on multiple organizing projects. She’s a great organizer, and I know you will be in good hands.
