  • "Marlena is amazing with the organizing. She’s truly talented. We’ve worked together on different parts of my home and I’ve used her organizer systems for years making my life more organized. She and her team recently help me pack up my house to move to a new home and they unpacked at the new home, organizing things into the right place. Truly love her services."

    - Uwa U. March 2025

  • "From consultation to the scheduled day Marlena was kind, thoughtful and efficient. The consultation was thorough and felt relaxed. It can be vulnerable to let someone see a space you may be embarrassed about; Marlena meets you where you are at and allows space for you, while also helping fix what may not be working! I felt very comfortable for the entire day and Marlena and I worked together as a team to make HUGE progress. This has been well worth it, and I would not hesitate to use her services again."

    - Plant Mom February 2025

  • "We have worked with Marlena several times to clear out our 3 story home with basement before we move to an apartment. The amount of items we had collected in our lives, and that came to us from both sets of our parents was overwhelming. Both my husband and I found ourselves having trouble deciding what to keep and what to give away. I especially had difficulty with the emotional attachments I had for things, but she has a way of turning the loss around to thinking of it as a positive way of gifting to others, with a dash of humor. She was able to make going through classes of items, and rooms of items fun and fast. We really appreciated that she took away useable items to places where they will have a new home. This was a huge time-saver for us. I recommend her highly."

    - Cynthia S. January 2025

  • "I’m so grateful for Marlena. She was able to help me clear out a super cluttered space that had been looming over me for WAY too long in less than 4 hours, AND she helped me out in a huge way by taking items for donation off my hands and dropping them off at a local thrift story for me. She was also just a cool person to talk to while we worked through all my junk! I would recommend Philly Neat Freaks to anyone. If you’re considering hiring them to help you get control over your space, just do it. It’s worth it. You will feel so much better!!"

    - K.C. January 2025

  • "I hired Marlena to help me declutter my overwhelming amount of clothes & accumulated belongings in preparation for a new baby that we needed to make space for in our smaller row house. After working with her on one room and seeing how great it felt, I had Marlena (& Sarah) come back twice more to help me with other areas of my house before giving birth. The experience was wonderful and cleared my mind too which is an amazing feeling. Marlena offers the service of immediately taking all donations from your house at the end of the session, which is so worth it especially when you have a car-sized load of bags & boxes to drop off. I can’t wait to have Marlena & Sarah back to help me by working their magic in more spaces in my home in the new year!!"

  • “Philly Neat Freaks is the best! Marlena is incredibly kind, responsive, and full of energy! In just a short packing session we were able to get so much accomplished that would have taken triple the time solo. The unpacking process was unreal. In under 7 hours with an extra pair of hands, on Halloween no less, Philly Neat Freaks unpacked and organized our kitchen, basement, guest closet, two linen closets and made recommendations for our mudroom and bathroom storage concerns. Plus all of the boxes were folded and ready for disposal. It was truly amazing and the flow Marlena created will continue to serve us well for years to come. Do yourself and your home a favor and get in touch with Philly Neat Freaks. You will not regret it and we are looking forward to our next organizational session!”

    - Carinna S. November 2024

  • “Moving with a 15-month-old was nuts, though working with Marlena from Philly Neat Freaks is THE THING that kept me grounded and sane through it all! Before the move, Marlena helped us anchor in the goals of their unpacking/organizing support: Make the house fully functional by the day after the move, with a priority on the baby's room and kitchen. And dang, Marlena made it happen! They asked questions about my kitchen organizing preferences and made smart choices where I didn't have answers. They were so versatile in the support they provided – guiding me in moments when I had decision fatigue of what to focus on next, being hands-on help organizing our whole basement, offering product recommendations for storage solutions, and so much more. Marlena left and every single box (except the one with our art to hang) had been unpacked. I was amazed, grateful, and relieved. I cannot recommend Philly Neat Freaks highly enough!"

    -Emily W. October 2024

  • “I highly recommend working with Marlena if you have a space that feels cluttered or isn't operating functionally!! I worked with her to completely reorganize our basement and cannot believe how incredibly functional the space is now. From the initial consultation to our working session, Marlena was incredible to work with. During the session, she had so many amazing ideas for little things that we hadn't talked about during our consultation, and she truly didn't stop from the moment she walked in the house until everything was done. I will absolutely be contacting her again to organize another room in our house!!”

    - Lauren M. October 2024

  • "I cannot recommend Marlena enough! She was fantastic in organizing a room that has overwhelmed me for years. Extremely patient, encouraging, and ready to get the job done. Her skills are top notch. My only regret is not hiring her sooner! I look forward to working with her on more projects."

    - Carol Ha December 2024

  • “Marlena was fantastic. I spoke to her about helping me organize my main closet over two years ago. My question now is, why did I wait so long?! She handled everything (including taking all of my unwanted things and finding them homes). For the first time in my adult life, I returned from vacation and didn't dread unpacking. She's made it effortless for me to maintain and also be able to use everything in a functional way. Can't wait for round two.”

    -J.H. September 2024

  • “Philly Neat Freaks is so awesome! During my consultation and organizing sessions I felt listened to and we were able to put the perfect systems in place for my organizing style. I loved the donation service, I don’t have a car so it was great to have that option. I will 100% use them to help unpack if I move again. The rates are reasonable and the whole experience was amazing!”

    -Nicole September 2024

  • “Marlena (owner of Philly Neat Freaks) is the BEST! Marlena helped me and my husband (and 2 little kids!) dig out of debilitating chaos and clutter and find organization systems that work for us and are FUN to maintain! If you are hesitating, just book already - it is cheaper than therapy after all!”

    - Tamara R. September 2024

  • "Tiffany's side-by-side support in reviewing, tagging and organizing items in *every* cupboard, closet and corner of my space got me back to a place of clarity and helped me get moving on the actions I needed to take to finish clearing out. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Philly Neat Freaks on another project!”

    - Tim W. August 2024

  • "Marlena is a punk rock Marie Kondo who will fix your cabinets and your life! She helped me unpack and organize two years ago after I moved my (way too much stuff) into a significantly smaller apartment, and has been helping me declutter and pack for my upcoming move. (If you're considering using Philly Neat Freaks prior to a move, I STRONGLY suggest that you do a declutter session or two BEFORE a packing session; it will save you a lot of stress and time.)"

    -Mary O. July 2024 via Yelp

  • "Marlena was absolutely wonderful!!! From the consultation, through the execution, even through the early arrival of my son less than halfway through the organization I was supposed to help with, she was flexible and reliable. I came home from the hospital with a newborn, to a newly organized kitchen and basement and it was so refreshing. Also, since this review took me 7 months to write (baby life), I can attest to the easy maintainability of the organization! I cannot recommend Marlena enough, and I have, many times! THANK YOU AGAIN!"
