Beyond Organized

Hi, I’m Bonnie, Owner of Beyond Organized MO. I’m a single mother of a soon to be 8-year-old son. He’s the best thing to ever happen to my life, and at the same time, the first to mess with my household cleanliness! After several years in the marketing and advertising industry, I asked myself, “If I were to own my own business, what would it be?!” All I have known is sales and marketing. One day, it finally came to me. In thinking about my other strengths, outside of work, one thing I knew I was good at is organizing and being OCD! This passion, and one might even call an ailment, was what prompted me to take a Leap of Faith into the Organizing industry. After several online courses, I learned a thing or two. Ultimately, I learned that this is the path God was guiding me towards.

Beyond Organized offers home, personal, and office organizing. We take care of that “something” that is hanging over your head. Maybe you have a messy basement or spare room, are moving and need to downsize and clear out the clutter, or need a system for managing bills/paperwork, etc. We will evaluate the problem areas of your home, take photos, discuss your habits, tendencies, and lifestyle to come up with solutions to help you stay organized. We operate on ZERO judgment. If we can help to make your life any easier by organizing a space, or even just helping to put a system into place for your current life tasks, contact us now!

something about

melissa, our co-founder

Hi, I’m Melissa, Co-Founder of Beyond Organized MO. I’m a mother of two boys, a 5-year old and a 9-year old.  I actually have three if you consider my husband! LOL! I also have a beautiful 17-year old step-daughter.  If I am not taking care of them, I am cleaning up after them! I’m originally a city girl, being from St. Louis, now living in the country where my husband farms several hundreds of acres. I am a naturalist, especially when it comes to cleaning and being environmentally safe by preserving, restoring, maintaining, and protecting your home.  Both Bonnie and I work hard, and are not afraid to dig in and get our hands dirty. I’m thrilled to be in a position to help others’ homes, the same as I do ours. And if you have pets, please tell them I have treats!!  ♥️ 🐶 😺

Why hire a professional organizer?

Beyond Organized is here to help you in this time-starved world we live in. One of the biggest advantages to hiring a professional organizer is that you will have someone to keep you accountable to make decluttering and organizing a priority. It’s easy to shrug off decluttering, and not make it a priority, when it is on your own “To Do” list. It is much harder to ignore when you are paying someone to help you. Same as my mother always taught me, when you put your money towards a goal, you tend to value it much more. The money you are spending to have someone come alongside you, will help you to move forward with the project much more quickly than you would have done on your own. If you are a motivated person, but feeling overwhelmed and don’t have the time to get the job done, hiring a professional organizer can be a game changer. We are here to make time for what is important, so you can focus on living your life and doing the things you love.

If you are a motivated person, but feeling overwhelmed and don’t have the time to get the job done, hiring a professional organizer can be a game changer. Beyond Organized will help you to break down that overwhelming project into bite-sized pieces. By creating organized systems in your home or office, you will save money by eliminating duplicate purchases, avoid time spent looking for things, save time by consolidating trips, and avoid emergency home and auto repairs by keeping up with maintenance. You will no longer miss payments (incurring additional fees!) Even more significant than the money you save by working with a professional organizer, you will reduce mind clutter to make time for what is important and can focus on living your life and doing the things you love.

It will depend on the size of the room and the amount of “stuff” we are dealing with. After our complimentary consultation, we will be able to give you a rough estimate on how long it will take.

If you have difficulty making decisions on what to keep and what to get rid of, Beyond Organized will help you to make the decluttering process much easier. We can’t make all your decisions for you, but we can ask you good questions to help you figure it out. Our outsider’s perspective can be very helpful throughout the process.

We will try our best to use products that you already have around your home. If we need more storage containers, we can help you to purchase exactly what you need.

We will donate to local charities here in Columbia, MO. If you have a charity of preference, please just let us know.
