The 5 best professional organisers in Montreal who transform chaos into calm

My mom always said a messy space can lead to a messy mind. She wasn’t wrong. Every time I tidy up my space, it’s like my brain gets a little refresh button.

Of course, some homes are on a whole different level of chaos—so much that the people living there don’t even know where to start. Good thing there are pros who actually know how to deal with that.

In this article, our team looked for the best professional organisers in Montreal. We checked out what they actually do and how they do it.

Keep reading to find out who can help you finally get your space (and mind) back in order.

How much does a professional organiser cost in Montreal?

A professional organiser in Montreal typically charges by the hour or in blocks of time. Most pros work around CA $35 per hour at the low end, while established organisers often charge about CA $80–$85 per hour.

How we chose the best professional organisers in Montreal

Experience: We chose organisers with proven hands-on experience in organising homes, small apartments, or offices.
Services Offered: We focused on organisers who provide more than simple decluttering. Bonus points for those who also offer space planning, storage recommendations, and even packing and unpacking support.
Professionalism: We prioritised organisers who communicate clearly, arrive on time, and set realistic expectations from the start.
Pricing: We compared transparent pricing structures, whether hourly rates or set packages. Good value also meant fair pricing with clear deliverables and great results.

1. Positive Spaces/Espaces positifs

Positive Spaces is led by Sheindl Rothman. She’s a trained professional organiser with 26 years in social work. Her background seems to shape everything about how the business runs.

Several reviews reflect this. One client shared that they were working through papers and items left by beloved family members.

What stood out was that Sheindl understood that not everything needs to go. Some things carry memory and meaning, and it’s okay to keep the special items. We appreciate that empathy.

Clients we talked to described her as intelligent, competent, and non-judgmental. They really felt comfortable working around her.

Her scope is broad. Kitchens, pantries, and even storage-heavy spaces like attics, basements, and garages—if it collects stuff, she’ll tackle it. 

She also knows how to deal with creative spaces, which requires a slightly different mindset. It’s not about stripping everything back to minimalism. It’s about making the space functional without killing the creative flow.

Clients noted her eco-minded approach too. She makes an effort to recycle and redistribute items to organisations supporting people in need.

Just remember that there’s a $50 cancellation fee for appointments cancelled less than 24 hours in advance.

Pros

  • Strong emotional intelligence
  • Non-judgmental and supportive
  • Efficient and structured
  • Eco-conscious disposal 
  • Wide range of spaces covered

Cons

  • Late cancellation fee

She works right alongside with you, efficiently and with patience

“Sheindl is someone who brings intelligence, competence and boundless energy when she comes to work on your project. She is non-judgemental and ready to tackle just about anything that you view as a priority. At the same time, she offers practical advice and strategies, and works right alongside with you, efficiently and with patience.”

Shirley Sienna, Google review

With her guidance, the job was completed in just one session!

“What a great experience! I had a cluttered attic space that I’d been dreading dealing with for years. Sheindl to the rescue. I thought it would take multiple sessions to even make a dent. But with her guidance, the job was completed in just one session! The space is now clutter-free and easy to navigate.”

2. Soulful Simplicity Professional Organizing

Phone: +1 514-994-0716
Business hours:

  • Monday to Friday: 8 AM – 6 PM
  • Saturday: 8 AM – 4 PM
  • Sunday: Closed

Website

Soulful Simplicity covers a lot of ground: closets, kitchens, homes, and even business spaces. 

They offer bespoke organising, Platinum-level KonMari guidance, and feng shui consultations. Even virtual coaching for those who prefer a DIY approach with expert guidance is available.

From what we’ve learned, Soulful Simplicity prioritises systems that align with how a household actually functions. Clients mentioned that the team really understands the scope of the project, desired outcomes, and collects feedback along the way.

One family had tried decluttering before, but the systems never lasted beyond a weekend reset. Sachiko and her assistant helped organise their kitchen and bedroom in a way that felt calmer and more functional. 

More importantly, the systems were still being used because they actually made sense in their daily life.

The feng shui element is also a key factor. We’ve heard that some homes felt more serene after working with Soulful Simplicity. 

That said, their rates are on the higher side. Most clients felt like it was worth it, though.

Pros

  • Wide range of services
  • Platinum KonMari certification
  • Fen shui consultations
  • Bespoke and thoughtful planning
  • In-person and virtual options
  • Sustainable results

Cons

  • Higher rates

Her approach is thoughtful, gentle, and effective

“Sachiko was an absolute delight to work with! I am a highly sensitive person and often get overwhelmed by decision-making and organizing tasks, but she made the entire process feel calm, clear, and easy. My home feels so much more organized now -especially the kitchen – and, best of all, it’s easy to keep it that way. Her approach is thoughtful, gentle, and effective. I am truly grateful for her help and already looking forward to working with her again next year on more projects!”

Prachi Joshi, Google review

They paid attention to every detail and made the process seamless

“Sachiko and her assistant Emma were nothing short of incredible. They helped us unpack after a big move into our new home – a family of four plus our dog – and we truly could not have done it without them. Punctual, professional, hardworking and efficient, with everything customized to our needs. They paid attention to every detail and made the process seamless. Would recommend without hesitation!”

3. On Point Organizing

On Point Organizing doesn’t just give advice or checklists. They actually work alongside clients, making the process hands-on and practical. 

They handle full-home and office reorganising to closets, move prep, downsizing, and general decluttering. 

A big part of what makes them stand out is Malorie’s expertise. She’s a Chronic Disorganisation Specialist, so she’s trained to help clients dealing with more complicated clutter.

She has a great attention to detail, and she tailors systems to people’s routines and abilities. One person even highlighted her work reorganising a medication cart, making it both safe and easy to use.

Their process also combines planning, decision-making, and decluttering into one smooth workflow. We think this works best for families downsizing or those moving into smaller homes.

Some clients also praised their team for managing chaos and maintaining energy throughout full-day sessions. It made the process fun for kids.

The team also makes sure items are recycled or disposed of responsibly.

However, their model focuses on half-day or full-day sessions, so they may not be suitable for those who prefer short, occasional tidying.

Pros

  • Hands-on approach
  • Expertise in complex clutter
  • Full workflow integration
  • Attention to detail
  • Energetic and positive
  • Sustainable

Cons

  • Not for quick fixes

Punctual, full of creative ideas and she has a terrific eye for staging

“When my husband and I sadly decided it was time to put our home of 49 years on the market we originally thought that we could tackle decluttering it ourselves. This was a very bad idea. Malorie to the rescue! She is a wonderful worker, punctual, full of creative ideas and she has a terrific eye for staging. She adjusted gracefully to the fact that only one of us was able to help her, as I had a broken arm. Malorie is able to make her suggestions with tact and consideration. We couldn’t have listed our home at the appropriate time without her. We look forward to her assistance when we actually move in the Fall. We really cannot recommend her highly enough.”

Adam S, Google review

Anyone who wants to get organized and keep organized owes it to themselves to give her a call

“Malorie helped me at the office and home. She has patience, care and helped me go through all the items taking up space and put in systems according to the way I think and my comfort level. Anyone who wants to get organized and keep organized owes it to themselves to give her a call. Delightful!!!”

4. The Passionate Organizer

Address: 12001 Salaberry Blvd, Dollard-Des Ormeaux

Phone: +1 514-347-3606
Business hours:

  • Monday to Friday: 10 AM – 8 PM
  • Saturday to Sunday: 10 AM – 4 PM

Website

The Passionate Organizer, run by Cara Persram, offers hands-on and thoughtful organising. 

Since she works solo, the process can take some time, but every step is carefully considered and client-focused.

She’s very collaborative, and that’s exactly what we love about her. Cara works alongside clients during sessions. She explains decisions, offers guidance, and teaches habits that can be carried forward long after the project ends.

After listening to client feedback, we found out that she shines when it comes to spaces that feel overwhelming. 

She has helped clients tackle years’ worth of family documents, photos, and keepsakes. We find her a great option, looking for a decluttering expert or even seniors downsizing services in Montreal.

We also liked that she tidies and clears surfaces along the way, so the space starts feeling better immediately. 

She’s also happy to recommend containers and drawer organisers based on the clients’ budgets.

Pros

  • Very hands-on
  • Teaches habits for long-term organisation
  • Skilled at decluttering sentimental spaces
  • Room-by-room system
  • Tidies as she works
  • Product recommendations

Cons

  • Solo operation can make projects slower

Certainly recommend Cara for any of your organizational needs

“I hired Cara to help me declutter my house of 30 years of family stuff to ready it to go on the market for sale. She dug right on and kept me on task. I liked being able to save a bit by purchasing a package as I required her services for several days. I’m very happy with how much she was able to accomplish along with her storage recommendations. Certainly recommend Cara for any of your organizational needs.”

Wendy Lee Paquette, Google review

Working with Cara was a wonderful experience!
“Working with Cara was a wonderful experience! She helped me immensely in transforming multiple spaces, in ways I wouldn’t have been able to on my own. She is very thorough, knowledgeable, and efficient with the whole process, while also being very caring and supportive around difficult decisions. It was great to have someone to help me to finally get these spaces organized. I highly recommend working with her!”

5. HANG IN THERE

Phone: +1 438-822-8746
Business hours:

  • Monday to Friday: 9 AM – 5 PM
  • Saturday to Sunday: Closed

Website

Hang In There is an ideal option for those looking for home organisation services in Montreal. They’re experts in turning chaotic spaces into something functional, calm, and stylish.

We noticed that their results aren’t just neat. They’re also beautiful and polished. They know how to blend practical organisation with interior styling.

Clients said the team has a great eye for creating order and flow. We also loved that they often make the most of what’s already in a home rather than starting from scratch.

What really sets them apart is their creativity and resourcefulness. No matter how complicated a space is, they find smart solutions to make everything feel organised and intentional.

Their services include decluttering, custom organising systems, and product sourcing. They even have specialised tasks like unpacking after moves, downsizing, or preparing a home for holidays or Airbnb. 

The main area for improvement is pricing transparency. Some clients have noted that clearer upfront costs would help in comparing services and planning budgets. 

Pros

  • Creates organised and stylish spaces
  • Experts in tricky layouts
  • Full-service offerings
  • Smooth and supportive process
  • Ideal for busy professionals

Cons

  • Lack of pricing transparency

They transformed total chaos into a beautifully organized, spotless space

“My biggest regret was waiting so long to use Hang in There’s services. Things got so out of hand that I couldn’t even step into my closet. I had put it off because the task felt overwhelming, and I was uneasy about letting others sort through my belongings. But Veronique and her team completely put me at ease. Their eye for organization and aesthetics, combined with their professionalism, respect, and discretion, was truly remarkable. They transformed total chaos into a beautifully organized, spotless space. If you’re considering this kind of service, don’t delay like I did—there’s nothing like the feeling of having everything in its rightful place.”

Sylvie T, Google review

Each transformation was beautiful and thoughtful

“I have had the privilege and pleasure of having Veronique and her team in my house on 3 separate occasions. Once to reorganize my kitchen and overstock pantry, once for my laundry room, and most recently to reorder my daughter’s bedroom. Each transformation was beautiful, and thoughtful. When I thought nothing could be done, they found creative and practical solutions. They are organizing “magicians!”  In addition to the design being aesthetically  pleasing, they implement systems that you can upkeep and maintain yourself. The team is reliable, dynamic and a true pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend enough! I’m already booking my next project! Thank you so much!”
