3 Ways Decluttering Works Magic in Your Life

Letting go of your belongings can be emotionally challenging!

But when you understand how decluttering can positively impact yourself and others, letting go becomes so much easier!

We have been working closely with our friends at the Women In Need Society (WINS) for the past year as our primary donation partner.

Their incredible team and dedicated volunteers have made what we do possible. After each decluttering project, we usually have a garage full of previously-loved items that need a new home.

WINS goes above and beyond to ensure that nearly every item creates a positive impact for someone in need! Revenue generated from selling donated items directly funds their incredible programs that uplift women and their families in Calgary ever single day.

We’re so grateful to be working with such a spectacular team!

WINS, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

With gratitude & magic,

Van & Lan

We recently worked with Vanessa and Landon for our move from Calgary to Southern California. Without a doubt we could never have made it without them. They worked so well with us, took a lot of stress out of the situation and basically took care of everything with their organizational abilities from decluttering, helping with the packing, labeling and scheduling charity pickups etc.They were very professional, always with a cheerful attitude, even having some good laughs over the decluttering process. We would definitely recommend Organization Magic. Thank you Van & Lan! Myrna, Michael & Freddy

Vanessa and Landon have helped my family with organization in such incredible ways. Tackling things we had put off due to mental blocks or lack of time to work through it alone. They handle their work with compassion and understand the reasons people keep things and might have difficulty letting them go. They take a genuine interest in getting to know their clients to best work with them. I felt like all their organization solutions came from a place of care for us. A particularly difficult task was going through and choosing what to keep of things that belonged to my mum, who has passed away. Having their guidance was incredible in working through her things. I am very grateful to have worked with them and am very happy with the systems they came up with to organize our home!

Owner's reply
Aw Anna, we're truly honored to have the opportunity to support you all through this process! We're so grateful to you for leading your younger siblings through the process with such patience, grace and compassion. You have been a shining light to work with! You're a Leader in the making, and your spirit continues to inspire us! ✨✨✨

It was unbelievable how well Organization Magic transformed my space. They did a consultation and then brought all the containers, bins, hangers, etc. as part of the service. The decluttering was collaborative and exceptional. The reveal is the best part, seeing everything so clean and organized. Highly recommend as a gift for yourself or your spouse.

Owner's reply
Wow, thank you, Russell! The reveal never gets old for us either. So happy we could make this happen for you. Clients like you make our work so fulfilling! Its's YOU and your decision making power that creates the real impact! Well done 🙌

The Organization Magic Team were at my house last week. They worked so efficiently and were so supportive throughout the entire process. We had met a while ago (2024) to have them come in to do the work but there was always something that didn’t fit our schedules. Now it’s 2025 and earlier this year I broke my right foot which definitely interfered with my life. This summer I had some renovations done just in time for the arrival of my Grandson who came to visit for the month of August, then I took him back home and visited my daughter for a few weeks in the UK. Following that there was a week-long business trip to the US. As you can imagine things piled up. And I was on a mission to get things finished in the garden as well. Surprise! My gardening work lead to an unfortunate mishap with a ladder. Three broken ribs later and much pain. I’m so happy Vanessa and Landon were here for me to help. The spaces look great and more so, the spaces function as they are supposed to. The work the team has done in 4 days is something that would have taken me the rest of the year to do and certainly saved a lot of ‘relationship’ issues. My husband is totally thrilled with the outcome. As a Type A personality I need to remember there are great people out there to support me. I don’t have to do it on my own. The Organization Magic Team is who you can rely on to get the job done. Thanks Landon and Vanessa for your excellent support and leadership in getting this job accomplished.

Owner's reply
Ann, we’re so grateful for the opportunity to support you through such an inspiring home organization transformation!! Your commitment to the process, even after such a demanding year, is truly remarkable. Because of your openness and determination, so many spaces in your home have been completely transformed in less than a week — each one now supporting the beautiful, busy life you live. It was a joy to see your vision come together and to help you reclaim balance and flow in your home. We’re thrilled that both you and Charles (and Pepper!) are loving the results. Thank you for trusting us to be part of your journey, for allowing us to help with so many important, sentimental items and for posting this generous review to remind others that it’s okay to let professionals help lighten the load. With gratitude & magic, Van & Lan ✨

Vanessa and Landon are wonderful communicators and take their time to map out a plan that works for everyone. They showed up with enthusiasm and carefully curate a long-term solution for organization, convenience and aesthetics. They also helped us to declutter at a faster pace allowing us to feel lighter afterwards. They took care of transportation of donations to a good causes which also make the process feel even more rewarding as we help those less fortunate. We highly recommend using Organization Magic to your home.

Owner's reply
Amanda & Craig, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! ✨ We can’t believe how much we accomplished together! Your dedication to the process made all the difference. It was such a joy to collaborate with you both! We love knowing that the decluttering left you feeling lighter and that your gently used items are now helping others in need - that’s the real magic of this work. Thank you again for trusting us with your home and for your kind recommendation. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to create lasting organization, convenience and beauty in your space! With gratitude, Van & Lan 🌿
