Meet Your Organizer, Melanie
I am Melanie Zell, the one-woman show of Early Bird Organizing. I have always been an organized individual. As a young girl, I would often take on organizing projects without being asked. This is my second career in life, and it is quite the opposite. I worked at home for 15 years, and was quite the introvert. I have come out of my shell over the years. I love the people I have met since starting my business in 2018.
It is my mission to make your life less stressful with decluttering, organizing, downsizing and packing/unpacking services. Most of my clients simply need a neutral, supportive person to help them stay focused and reassure them that it’s okay to let go of things. They often feel overwhelmed and don't know how/where to start. I understand that inviting someone into your home can feel uncomfortable, and I approach every situation without judgment.
Testimonials
"Melanie is amazing! She was so sweet and quick to come up with realistic and livable solutions for saving me space and time. I hired her to help with the laundry room but she ended up helping with parts of the kitchen too! Highly recommend."

We all deserve to feel at peace in our spaces!"

"We loved having Melanie come out to help us organize our house from top to bottom in preparation for our baby. She is so easy to work with, and her method for organizing works in any space. She was so helpful in gently encouraging me to let things go while reminding me if I’m not ready, it’s ok to keep anything, and we found “homes” for it all. Even my scariest room was not too much for her. We are so grateful to have found her!!
