" As I scrolled down to find the place to include my remarks about Jane, I kept smiling in agreement with the wonderful testimonials that I read. I am pleased to add my thoughts. Jane was referred to me by my real estate agent who had seen the magic that she had performed for many others through her diligence, flexibility and creativity. Together we readied my home for sale in an 18 day time frame with Jane gently guiding me in this momentous task. The house sold in one day! I have continued to call on Jane in my new venue and her guidance through those tasks which are daunting to one who is alone has made for a smooth transition. The network that Jane has developed for donating or selling items that are no longer needed by me has assured that these belongings become someone else's treasures. Beyond the skills that Jane shares in the unique situations she encounters, she is a wonderful person who brings care, respect and a solid work ethic to each home. I am pleased to recommend her and I consider her to be a Friend."

"Jane was amazing! We were preparing to sell our home of 20 years and I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of stuff I needed to go through and make presentable. Jane did such a great job it almost made me want to stay! Obviously, the buyers thought so too as the house sold in a day. I only wish I could fly her to our new home so that she could help me set it up. You are lucky to have her in the triangle; I highly recommend her services!"

"Very grateful for Jane and her crew, who made a major purging project and reorganizing effort so manageable. In preparation for our home renovations, Jane came in and helped sort, wrap, pack, box, and store items. She brought packing materials, took carloads of goods to donation centers, photographed, listed and sold items on Facebook Marketplace, found people to move heavy furniture in and out of our home, and generally was a wonderful help and a positive force during a very hectic time. I highly recommend Jane!"

"Clearing out the house my husband and I have lived in for more than 30 years in Raleigh was a daunting task. Enter the “Wonderful Jane.” After talking on the phone and having a walk through our house, she gave us an estimate of the time/cost for our job which turned out to be right on target.
Working side by side on a schedule that worked for both of us, we cleaned out every closet, cabinet, drawer, boxes and furniture stored in the attic and in the basement in 8 days over a 3 week period.
I had no idea what to do with what we were getting rid of. But Jane did! At the end of each day she gathered up things we were getting rid of and took them to their appointed destinations. Her network of people and organizations who could use, take in, or buy/sell our household items was extremely valuable. She brought packing goods that she re-cycled from other jobs, so I didn’t have to scrounge boxes from every dumpster in Raleigh! What a relief!
Jane is kind. She gently moved me forward while respecting my attachments to certain pieces. I never felt rushed or pressured and she often suggested ways to re-purpose something she could tell I was fond of, but never used. But most of all, Jane was fun! Who could have imagined that clearing out our house would be a joy? Jane made it so, and I am glad to recommend her highly."

"We recently made a local Chapel Hill move and we are so very grateful for all the help we received from Jane and Rachel, every step of the way. Early in the process, Jane helped with downsizing, decluttering, and donating or selling key items on our behalf. Later came help with packing and further purging and donations. Both Jane and Rachel helped us on moving day itself and in subsequent days, to get us unpacked, set up, and organized. They helped us accomplish so much more than we could possibly have done on our own, and most importantly, our goals were attained within a very efficient timetable and without us becoming exhausted. Having their help and suggestions has been a true blessing for us. It has been a total pleasure working with them and also very interesting learning experience at the same time. We really couldn’t have done this move without them. Many thanks."

"I met Jane Williams Meyer when she came to help with closet organizing. Her work is exceptional. We worked side by side for a couple of hours. From there she separated and organized in a way that is still working. She took clothes to be donated and all was perfect. We will definitely use again."
*Molly K. ~ Raleigh, NC
“We’re very grateful to Jane for her role in our company’s success. She is well-known and well-respected around the state, and we know we can trust her to represent us effectively and professionally in all aspects of our event management business. Best of all, she makes the process engaging and fun.”

"Jane and I go back many decades to our days in Junior High School. It’s my absolute honor and pleasure to recommend Jane Williams Meyer and Kit & Caboodle, LLC for all your needs.
My mother's unexpected death left my brother and I with almost a century of our family's trinkets, treasures, paperwork, books, furniture, etc to sort. A daunting time consuming task to attempt while in shock, grieving and living out of state.
One phone call to Jane provided my brother and I with the direction and guidance we so desperately needed. Jane had a plan of action, freed her schedule, brought over dinner, held my hands, and provided a shoulder to cry on. With Jane's assistance, every pocket, every page in every book, every container and cabinet was inspected and emptied. All important paperwork, photos, certificates and sentimental keepsakes were found and saved. Jane packed these important items in my suitcases and sent me back home to my family in Denver. Jane then dedicated her time and energy to clearing out the rest of my mother’s home. She invited antique dealers to purchase what they wanted and what was left she listed online, donated and/or disposed of. Her team even emptied, demolished and cleared an old storage shed in the back yard! The house was cleared promptly and readied for rental.
Jane is honest, dependable, and incredibly hard-working. I was so touched when she took the time to save and mail me my mom’s 6 postage stamps found in papers I had left behind. My family could have never have gotten so much accomplished without her in such a time of shock and need. Kit & Caboodle, LLC has my highest of recommendations!"

"Jane Meyer is GREAT. She first helped me three years ago when I was having my husband’s office staff at my house for a holiday party and I was NOT ready. Even though I called at the last minute, she and a crew blew in and helped organize, de-junk and even decorate for the party in a flash. She just seemed to know what to do. She has since helped me with other projects, including organizing and arranging our bookshelves. When I have a big project, such as cleaning out the basement or garage, I always want Jane to help. She is practical, organized, fast AND fun to work with! I am happy to recommend Jane for anything."
*Margaret H. ~ Chapel Hill, NC
"Jane has assisted me with decorating my home for the past three Christmases, and she has been an absolute lifesaver! With her help, I have been able to do in a day and a half what usually takes me a whole week. Her help has been absolutely invaluable! Jane is professional, hard-working, and shows great attention to detail. What’s more, she has great taste. I have to add that she is the nicest person ever, and I have a blast working with her. I really cannot say enough about Kit & Caboodle. Calling them was the best decision I could have made. It reduces tons of stress for me each year at Christmastime. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!"

"I had the chance to work with Jane in helping a genteel, older lady prepare her house for downsizing and moving out of state. Before Jane came on the scene, the client was panicked, overwhelmed and weepy about the daunting task of moving out of the home she had lived in for decades. One of the first things I noticed was the care and patience Jane demonstrated in guiding the client to make difficult choices about her precious belongings and the memories they represented. Jane’s strong organizational, packing and selling skills are obvious, but Jane’s ability to help the client preserve her calmness and dignity during a major life transition was what made all the difference!"
*Amy M. ~ Chapel Hill, NC
"Jane really saved the day for me when I had to declutter my home of 30 years before putting it on the market. She organized, packed, listed items for sale. Her work saved my stressed out self!"
*Karen G. ~ Chapel Hill, NC
"Moving day went very smoothly with the help of Jane. My kitchen was in place when she left! That never happened on any prior moving day. I then had Jane return to help get the garage in order and items ready to sell and give away. Jane was my “go to” when I needed names of buyers, etc. When Jane left my furniture was where it needed to be. Having a helper certainly relieved the stress of moving day away."
*Rita C. ~ Fearrington Village, NC
"Moving from a 6 bedroom house, filled with sentimental keepsakes, collections, and art. Also an attic space stuffed to the gills with things saved from the lives of 4 kids, was not an easy task, and definitely would’ve done me in if not for Jane and Mary, of G2G, and their amazing crew, getting us ready for moving day. They also made the move in at the new house manageable, unpacking, organizing, and getting things set so we could get a good nights sleep right away. Truly, working with them created an atmosphere of let’s get this done, let’s make it fun. They helped with everything: room staging, providing packing supplies, sorting, selling, dumping, taking things to storage, you name it, they did it. Even counseling - there were a few times I needed to be talked down from the ledge!! Could not have managed without them. Worth every penny. Highest of recommendations."
