Professional Organizers in Plainsboro, New Jersey (Middlesex County)

Let’s be real: nobody has time for “perfect.” Your house doesn’t need to look like a magazine spread – it just needs to work for you. Hi, I’m Marina Mahnken, a Professional Organizer based in Monmouth County, NJ, and the one you call when you’re ready to stop the madness. I help real people (like you) reclaim their homes with no judgment, no perfectionism, and absolutely no overpriced bins. I help real people with real homes to declutter, set up simple systems, and I teach you how to maintain it so your hard work doesn’t unravel in two weeks. This isn’t about perfection – it’s about making your home a little easier to live in.
Why Work With Me?
• No Judgment. Seriously. I’ve seen it all. I’m not here to shame your “chairdrobe” or snack stash.
• I’m not trying to turn your home into an Instagram museum: This is a people business, not a “buy more stuff to get organized” business.
• As a Professional Member of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals (NAPO), I have earned multiple specialist certificates in Residential Organizing, Workplace Productivity, Life Transitions, and Team Productivity. I also hold a Foundations Certificate of Study in Chronic Disorganization from The Institute for Challenging Disorganization, ensuring my approach is grounded in expert knowledge, empathy, and respect for my clients’ individual needs.
• I don’t push expensive products: You probably have everything you need already. I work with what you have (bins, baskets, boxes) and only suggest new purchases if absolutely necessary. My focus is on solutions that make sense in the real world – not selling a fantasy.
My goal is to break down big tasks into manageable steps and teach you the skills to keep your space organized long after our sessions.

Is disorganization running your life, or those of your loved ones? Poor organization habits start in childhood - this can lead to underperforming in grade school, becoming overwhelmed in college, and being unable to handle the curveballs that life throws as an adult. My goal is to not only lead you to a clutter-free space, but to provide you with the organizational skills needed to save time, reduce stress, and live to your full potential!

Here are some tough facts to swallow:
- The average person will spend an ENTIRE YEAR searching for lost or misplaced items throughout the course of their lives.
- Nearly 9 out of 10 students say that better organizational skills would help them get better grades, but half of all children and teens do not have a system to keep track of their assignments, contacts, or appointments.
- 47% of college students say that high school did not "teach them the organizational skills required to do well in college."

I work with dozens of children every week as a certified NJ School Psychologist, with disorders such as ADHD, Learning Disabilities, Anxiety, Depression, and Autism. With each and every one of these disorders, I have recognized that organization plays a major role in one’s ability to function typically. As a Professional Home Organizer and NAPO member, I hope to use my background and experiences to help you develop a clutter-free space, and some mental clarity.

My services include:
- Home Organization (Virtual or In-Person)
- Bedroom & Closet, Including kids’ rooms
- Bathroom
- Kitchen
- Home Office
- Living Room
- Play Room
- Dining Room
- Garage
- Basement

Hoarding is the acquisition of large quantities of worthless junk items combined with the inability to discard them. This behavior may be associated with various psychiatric problems, but it is most commonly found in those with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). An estimated 700,000 to 1.4 million people in the USA are estimated to have compulsive hoarding syndrome (according to the International OCD Foundation).

MM Organizing specializes in de-cluttering, packing and unpacking, planning and assistance in down-sizing, and real estate staging. I’m Marta Mercadante, the owner of MM Organizing LLC and I know you’re going to love your organized home.

In my 35 years as a healthcare professional I learned the importance of compassion and attention to detail. I am extremely experienced in working with the elderly and can provide the compassionate assistance and planning that take much of the stress out of major life changes.

De-cluttering

Organizing is a huge energy drain. Everyone is so busy with their families and their jobs. There just is not enough energy left to spend your weekends or evenings rummaging through the closets when you could be playing with your children or enjoying a movie with your significant other. Your time is too precious in your day job to expect to have anything left over for an evening of sorting old clothes.

The most important element of de-cluttering is the ability to detach from the possessions that are impeding the happiness you deserve. We’ll work together to achieve your vision for your home. Live in a clutter free environment that we’ll show you how to maintain with ease.

Packing/Unpacking

Hiring a professional organizer to assist with your moves is extremely cost-effective. Your possessions are packed with care and organized to make the unpacking process much easier, faster, and tidier. Get your life back in order as quickly as possible. We’ll unpack right into your cabinets and closets leaving you time to enjoy your new home. Don’t get stuck with boxes stacked in every room. Make your move as seamless as possible.

Real Estate Staging

Our real estate staging service will prepare that blank canvas for the next owner’s dreams. Staging dramatically improves your ROI. Don’t let your home sit on the market waiting for the right buyer. Make your home the right buy for all the prospective buyers.

Organizing Ethos

Doing this type of work fulfills my innate desire for harmony and symmetry. When I was training nurses in the hospital, I always felt that a properly organized workspace led to happy, productive employees that could operate at maximum efficiency. Achieving that order required constant diligence and attention to detail. Clutter has a way of sneaking up on you, only to suddenly find yourself surrounded. Consistent attention to maintaining harmony is much easier than digging out of chaos.

I have found the same to be true with personal organizing for the home. If you’d like to discuss your organizing needs in more detail contact me at or email me at A harmonious, functional space enhances our lives. The same way that a beautiful piece of art enhances our appreciation of life.... See More
