Estate Services

If you’ve recently lost a loved one or are moving them to a care facility, you may feel overwhelmed by the process of cleaning out their home. We know it’s a difficult and emotional task, and sometimes you don’t know where or how to begin.

We start with a free consultation and then customize our services to meet your specific needs. There are two typical ways we approach helping with estates:

  • Providing hands-on help alongside family members to sort items and make decisions about what to keep and what to donate, sell, or discard.
  • Working on our own to organize and inventory items for families who live outside the area or who aren’t personally ready to go through the home. We’ll sort things into categories, take photos, and catalog them into a spreadsheet so all family members can see everything and help make decisions.
  • Compassionate support during a difficult time.
  • Hands-on help to go through items.
  • Tips on honoring the memory of items you keep.
  • Consultation on next steps, whether an auction, sale, or disposal of items.

“We believe in education, working together, and sustainability, to achieve your goals.”

CONSULTATIONS ARE ALWAYS FREE!

Organizing Hoarders

Step By Step

I can say with 100% confidence that Laura really understands this process and all the pieces of it. She made our family’s clean out as smooth as possible and knew exactly when to step in and when to stand back. I would HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone regardless of the size or value of the estate/task.

Time To Schedule

Laura truly has a passion to help turn those who have a little, or a lot, of chaos into something they can manage again! I am impressed with how easy it was with her help to make our business scheduling and tracking flow… to the point of becoming paperless! So glad I took the first step in making the call for a quick and easy consult- The rest is history!!

Impressed Paleo Couple

My husband and I recently implemented the Paleo diet into our lifestyle.  As we prepped our meals together, we often found ourselves in each other’s way while reaching for kitchen tools.  We requested Managed Chaos’ help in organizing our kitchen.  When she came to our house for the initial consultation, she gave us some fresh ideas on arranging the counter spaces, but told us we didn’t need her help!   We incorporated her tips when we rearranged the counter spaces and LOVE it!   The heavy stand mixer has a new home on the counter (no more heavy lifting!).   Various cooking tools are more readily available to us as we prepare our meals.  Managed Chaos’ objective perspective gave us a fresh new plan that we could implement ourselves.

Inspired and Motivated

Laura is kind and non-judgmental. She turns my focus from personal shame about the current state of disorganization to how to buckle down and plow through the task before us. She is positive and cheerful, which keeps me motivated. She has great common sense ideas I haven’t previously thought of on how to organize, store or do something better. We always end our sessions with a relieving sense of accomplishment. The before and after pictures really show the difference she makes!

Lost and Found

Laura, owner and operator of Managed Chaos, found several things I thought had been lost and gone forever, for which I am grateful. She also went through pictures, important papers, drawers, and gave lots of organizational tips. My husband and I can’t ask just anyone to go through those important papers.

Visually Impaired

Laura came to our house to organize closets and label yarn among other things. I have known Laura for almost 23 years, and not only is she a great organizer but also a great friend. I am also visually impaired. Therefore, I trust her to let me know what clothes are out of style and value her honesty and know she will not take advantage.

Thankful Couple

I highly recommend Laura for any organizational job, and we will have her back in the future for more organizing. She is a great help to all and very dependable, always on time.
