Organizing Services

Modern kitchen with white cabinetry, large marble island with gray stools, stainless steel refrigerator, dual chandeliers, and hardwood flooring.

Balancing all you do in a day—family, work, friends, etc.—is challenging, especially when life events overlap. And when they do, clutter tends to pile up, daily tasks get to be too much to handle, and spaces no longer function well.

As a wife, stepmom, business owner, volunteer, and friend, I know how easy it is to put other priorities before organizing. As a professional organizer, I’ll help you take back control, free up time, boost productivity, and create calming spaces by organizing your home.

Whether you need help with decluttering, editing, organizing, unpacking, or styling your home…from Madison, WI to Dubuque, IA…I’m here for you.

More Happy Clients

  • "We hired Carrie to come in and help reorganize my parents house as we were in the process of converting it to our summer home. There were several layers to the project. Organizing, deciding what to keep what to let go of, consolidating and reworking the kitchen layout, all the closets, storage area and cabinets. We did a FaceTime walk through, Carrie developed a plan and executed it flawlessly in the timeframe the plan called for. We would highly recommend The Marshall Method to anyone. Carrie’s thoughtful approach helped turn a difficult process into positive experience."

  • "My kitchen has never looked better! Carrie did an amazing job at making my kitchen more organized and efficient. She’s super friendly, professional and timely. Carrie listened to my needs and made great suggestions to create a system that has made it easier for me to maintain. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone!"

  • "If you’re looking for someone to help you with interior design, Carrie Marshall is that person. It’s hard to find someone in this area to help with interior decorating, so I was very grateful I came across Carrie. I have a difficult time picking paint colors, and it was primarily why I asked her to give me some suggestions. I also needed advice on furniture placement, window coverings, light fixtures, etc., and she helped me in those areas as well. What I like about Carrie is that she listened to me, came to understand my likes and dislikes, and incorporated them into her plans for my house. She didn’t insist on doing things her way but gently steered me in the right direction when she thought some of my ideas wouldn’t work. She was always right! I also appreciate that she worked according to my time frame and scheduled appointment times that worked for me. I know Carrie does home organization in her business as well, so if that’s your area of need she can help there, too. Rest assured she is discreet and confidential, a true professional."

  • "When I opened my business, I quickly realized how unorganized and inefficient my work space was. Carrie listened intently to how I was currently utilizing the space and what my future goals were so that she could come up with a plan that truly worked for my needs. Her organizational plan was so creative and detailed. We are currently working in the newly organized/reconstructed space and many people have commented on how large and neat it feels. In addition, I'm able to work more efficiently when items/tools have a designated place that make sense to each function. Thank you Carrie!"
