professional home organizing and decluttering services

burlington - hamilton - oakville

Having clutter and chaos in your physical environment can lead you to feel stressed, overwhelmed, self-critical, or even embarrassed. It robs you of time, money, focus, and emotional well-being. It doesn’t need to stay this way!

 

why do you want to get organized?

  • I just want my life to be simpler, less cluttered, and more beautiful.

  • It takes me forever to find things.

  • There are piles of things on my counters because nothing has a home.

  • My closets and storage room are filled with stuff. It feels too overwhelming.

  • I have no systems in place to manage all of the papers that come into my home.

  • We moved into our new home a while ago and there are still unpacked boxes and bins. I don’t feel at home.

  • I’ve accumulated so much in my home over the years. I know I need to declutter but don’t know where to start. I don’t want this task left to my kids when I’m gone.


At One Space at a Time, we understand that there are different reasons why you’re seeking support with getting organized. Limited time, not knowing where to start, health concerns, lack of organizational skills, and difficulty getting or staying motivated are some common reasons that lead people to hire a professional organizer. We provide the support you are looking for so that you can experience the benefits of living a life with less clutter, more organization, and greater overall well-being.

Client Testimonials

  • “Move over Marie Kondo! Corrie brings efficiency, simplicity and energy to tackle clutter and dysfunction. We were overwhelmed by stuff after some health issues then 2 babies close together. Corrie swooped in and alleviated our overwhelm after the first session. It's not just about dealing with what you have now, she teaches you the way to less clutter and mess for life! She is thoughtful and charismatic along the way which made the process smooth as well as productive. The results will last!”

    — busy mom, Hamilton

  • ”She’s my not-so-secret weapon! I engaged Corrie to help organize my home office, and we got through years’ worth of clutter in just a few sessions. With the new systems and habits Corrie helped me build, I’m serving more clients, more efficiently, without the overwhelm. I highly recommend Corrie...to anyone lucky enough to live in the area she serves!”

    — Entrepreneur, Hamilton

  • “After launching our business during Covid, moving house, having two kids and just generally living busy lives, we realized the office did not get the attention it deserved. My husband works in there full time and it somehow became the dumping ground for things without a home and a place to put things when guests came over. Enter Corrie! She took the time to understand and listen to both of our needs and get a feel for what we wanted out of the space at the end. The best part about Corrie and why I would absolutely recommend her is that she left no stone unturned. If we had tried to tackle this ourselves we without a doubt would have created "sort for later" folders and boxes. We're 6 weeks past our final session with her where we put it all together and the desk is clear, the receipts are in the right place and I just moved all of my son's handmade cards from his birthday from the fridge to his own folder, while making coffee! That is how easy she has made it for us to put things in the right place.”

    —busy parents, Hamilton

  • “Corrie was absolutely amazing to work with! She spent the time clearly going over how the process would work and what to expect. She was able to get a lot done while I was at work and the parts we did together were fun. She helped me overcome the feeling of being overwhelmed by my stuff and now my basement feels like a space I can enjoy. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and I will definitely hire her again for my next project.”

    — busy mom, Hamilton

  • “I was lucky to find Corrie and One Space at a Time when I wanted to make changes to my living environment. From the start, Corrie understood my goals and needs as an independent senior, and throughout the process she guided me (and did the physical work) with great respect to my style and habits. Thanks to her help and recommendations, I now enjoy a leaner, safer and easier-to-maintain apartment, leaving me more time and energy to enjoy my favourite activities, hobbies and socializing with friends - a dream finally come true. I only wish I had contacted her sooner.”

    — aging in place, Hamilton

  • “Working with Corrie was SO helpful!
    As a mom with active young kids and a business to run, I was getting overwhelmed by the amount of stuff my kids had, and how cluttered our home was getting. I primarily hired Corrie to help me with the kids toys, but she also taught me about HOW to organize different spaces in my house and how to get the rest of the family involved in the process. Our house is no where near perfect (and never will be) but it feels less chaotic now and it has made me feel more calm about my house and also motivates me to keep organizing different areas little by little.
    Corrie is worth every penny! 🥰🩷
    100% HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

    — busy mom and business owner, Hamilton

  • “I cannot recommend Corrie enough. She is kind, not judgemental and she educates you on how to maintain an organized space in a way that works for you. I really struggled with some areas and would judge myself for being messy. It turns out that with a bit of help from Corrie, I wasn't messy but just needed a system that worked for me. It also felt good that all the things being cleared out were being recycled or donated. I would hire Corrie's services again in a heartbeat.”

    — young adult, Burlington

  • "We were looking for an organized way to store all the kids arts/crafts that made it easy for them to grab and put away on their own, and also made it look nice for when we hosted company in the dining room. Corrie was amazing in her ability to suggest many options that would work and help us decide which one would work best for us using different furniture that we already had.

    On the organizing day she was SO efficient and fast at sorting things and had a whole step by step process to getting everything to it's new home. It was amazing! We would definitely use her again for any project big or small that may come up. It is worth every penny and we're so happy with the results."
