January is National “Get Organized Month” and it couldn’t come at a better time. After all of the holiday hosting and having the family home all the time, we’re motivated to clean up the cutter and go into the new year with a more organized space.

We’ve put together a list of local places to get a helping hand if you’re taking on a larger decluttering project, and places to donate and sell when you’re done.  Here’s to going into the new year with a more organized space!
