Testimonials

Since we live in upstate New York, we dreaded the task of moving my wife’s sister to an assisted-living apartment that was smaller than the home she had lived in for 10 years. After seeing the new apartment, you returned to her home and did the work that we were too tired and stressed to do. You knew what would fit and tagged and packed everything. More than that, you oversaw the move and made the apartment look like home. My wife’s sister is pleased as well — and that was crucial. As a final note, in a difficult time, you helped us personally, and we are grateful beyond measure.

My eyes welled up with tears when I walked into my mom’s apartment. I can’t even express how thrilled I am!!! The placement of furniture and pictures is just perfect. My mother’s apartment looks like her home. Thank you for taking a difficult task and making it tremendously easier. The support that you offered my mom, as well as all of us, is deeply appreciated. I highly doubt that you would ever need a reference but if you do, please feel free to provide my information. You are a magician and we are all so grateful!!!

It has been several months since you organized my kitchen. I still get almost daily pleasure from how well things are organized. Nothing in the house gives me as much pleasure as my well organized kitchen. You did such a good job that I never felt a need to modify your work. It was a perfect job. I am amazed at how well you were able to understand what to keep and what to throw out, even though you never met me before. I remain very impressed by how fine a job you did in just over an hour. I have rarely spent money on anything that had equal value as your organizational services. Thanks, Jean.

I’ve turned to Jean Lombard and ClutterFree over and over since I moved to CT less than two years ago. First she helped unpack boxes and organize their contents upon our arrival to the area; then she managed moving everything back out of our new house for renovation work – she moved half of our belongings to storage and the other half to our rental house. And finally, she moved my family back into our house post-renovation. All this without breaking a sweat! Or a lamp! : ) Jean was incredibly intuitive, thoughtful and hardworking during this process. Not only did she lift an incredible burden off my plate, she did it with grace and creative consideration…even managing to accommodate my children’s nap schedules by having their cribs’ dismantling delayed and their reinstallation expedited. In addition to being incredibly well organized and detail oriented (she labels EVERYTHING and has an impeccable memory for furniture placement!), she works quickly, efficiently, and is trust-worthy and discreet.

If it were not for Jean’s skills, I would have been unable to move on time. Jean has exceptional organizational skills as well as excellent inspirational skills. I am recommending her to all my friends who are planning a move. I am also recommending her to all real estate agents.

I just moved two months ago and, without the great help that I received from Jean, I honestly don’t think I could have been able to get to my new house on schedule.

Jean organized and planned everything and thought of every detail even to the smallest. I would recommend ClutterFree to anyone who needs really professional help.

Michael and I were in need of some help reclaiming our “Drag Room” back to a guest room / office. Many years of charity work and a non-stop schedule, had turned our extra room and basement into an absolute mess. We had tried several times to start but couldn’t get over the amount of work to be done.
We were at a party and John was talking about how Jean was such a great help getting him moved into his new house. We mentioned we were in dire need of some help and he said Jean was instrumental in making the house feel like a home.
We called Jean and scheduled our first meeting. She came over and we discussed our ideas for what we thought needed to be done. With some embarrassment, we showed her the rooms and she did not flinch and was confident our dreams could become a reality.
Once we got down to business Jean was amazing! She was impartial and helped us make many, many difficult decisions. Not once did she judge, instead asking us how we really felt about things, reminding us that memories will always be with us even though the physical item may not. There were many times we couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel but Jean kept us focused and reminded us that sometimes things need to get worse before they get better!
Another reason why Jean is such a big help is that not only does she help you go through your “stuff” and organize it, but she also takes all your donations to Goodwill (or the charity of your choice) for you! She is also very patient and lets you work at your pace. As a result of working with her, we have a very different perspective. When we are out shopping we no longer just buy things, we think about if it’s really needed or what it will replace. This is a major change in how we used to think.
We put our faith in Jean and her vision and the results were amazing! We gained back the use of two rooms and her solutions have made our lives so much easier. There is still work to be done and Jean will be a part of that.
We would without hesitation recommend Jean. Her professionalism, great personality, and skills make her a pleasure to work with.

What an incredible difference you made in moving my 95-year old Dad. You lowered the stress level with not just your organizational skills but also meeting the challange of space and time management. You made decision making (take or leave) easy and quick. Most importantly, you genuinely care for those moving. I can’t thank you enough. Keep up the good work. Others will appreciate it.
