Peace of Mind Organizing

Imagine: A stress-free move.

Moving from one house to another can be one of the most stressful things you do. But it doesn’t have to be that way. When Peace of Mind Organizing manages your move, you can let go of worries.

We can help you:

• declutter (and donate!)
• pack
• streamline moving day
• unpack and organize your belongings

With our help, you can free yourself of excess before the move. Then we make your new house a home. You can work with a team of expert unpackers and organizers to unpack and settle in to your home. Or, If you want, you can even go on vacation and return to your new home completely unpacked and ready for you to live in.

Sound like a fantasy? It can be a reality.

“Bringing in an Operation: Relocation team was some of the best money I have ever spent! Every day in my kitchen, I am so grateful to have such well organized homes for everything. My kitchen, bathroom and office were completely functional within several days of unpacking; it relieved a lot of the stress of moving! It would have taken me weeks to accomplish the same goal and I wouldn’t have done it as well. I now really enjoy putting things away.”

—Marita Perlak, Chesterfield, Missouri

Here’s how it works.

We begin with a meeting to go over the project and discuss your special circumstances and concerns. We’ll create a timeline and a plan so that your move will happen within your timeframe, with a minimum of stress. If your move is local, we’ll meet at both homes if possible, so that we can figure out just where things will go. We can take photos and use floorplans to create a seamless move.

We can give you advice on making moving day easy for you, including what to take with you in the car (versus on the truck) and how to keep your pets safe and comfortable during the move.

For decluttering, we bring in the tools of our trade: bins, post-it notes, label makers. We sort your items so you can easily decide what to keep and what to part with. We take away your donations right then and there so they’re out of the way. Once this editing phase is completed, you’re left with only the stuff you use and love. And it’s organized and ready for packing.

If you’d like, we can help you interview and select movers. And we can get your utilities transferred and take care of other details so the new house is ready for you on moving day. We can even fill out your change-of-address forms for you.

We can supervise the packers that the mover provides, ensuring that the boxes are packed logically, labels actually match the contents and the boxes are marked for the appropriate room in the new home. (We may even be able to do the packing for you.) 


On move day, OPERATION: RELOCATION team members can be on site at both ends of a local move, working with the movers for a smooth transition of your belongings. (If yours is a long-distance move, we can stick with you until the trucks are loaded and your house is empty—and we can help you find organizing help at the destination as well.)

We can recommend furniture placement, if you desire, and ensure that the movers place the furniture correctly.

Once the boxes have arrived in your new home, a team of talented professional organizers will unpack and organize your belongings according to the plan we created. You’ll see your belongings settled into your new home, ready to be lived in and loved. And it can happen before all the packed boxes have a chance to stress you out.

When we’re finished, your home is unpacked and organized, using organizing products we bring along so that your belongings fit into your new space nicely. We can even place your home decor items. We use organizing principles to figure out where to put things so your things won’t be hidden from you.

We can also coordinate with other service providers, like picture hangers, electronics installers and handymen. They can even perform their services during the unpacking sessions, if feasible.

In a matter of just a few sessions, your house full of boxes will become your home.

You can be there every step of the way. Or, after the decluttering is finished (because, of course, only you can decide what to keep and what to let go of), you can step way from the process, if you’d prefer. We’ll take it from there, executing the move fully and as planned.

“I hired an Operation: Relocation team to unpack and organize my new house. I loved the people and the whole experience was faster and less stressful than I expected. I wish I’d hired them to supervise the packing: The worst part of our move was the packing by the moving company. So many disparate things were boxed together, and mislabeled. This took a lot more time to get things in the correct rooms. Operation: Relocation was definitely worth the investment!”

—Penny Walli, Wildwood, Missouri

“Hi Janine. As I unpack today, I am even more grateful for the thoughtful packing of your team. Amy did my bedroom and it has been very clear and easy to unpack.”

—Nan Smith, St. Louis County, Missouri
