Disorganized Collection and no time

[Kevin]

A few months ago, there was discussion here about an episode of American Pickers. Some guy was trying to sell 1950s cards. I didn't see the episode, but the general consensus on net54 was: "Holy Hannah, the way that collection is organized [or disorganized] is giving me anxiety."

I am collecting T206, C46, 1950 Bowman baseball and football and have more than enough 1955 Bowmans to say I'm collecting that set as well. The issue, these cards are NOT organized in ANY fashion. They once were. I left them at my parents' house in 1994 and brought them there after I made purchases. I set up shop at my home in 2014, settled down, but never felt comfortable bringing them to my house.

I now have a completely disorganized mess. Retirement is 4.5 years away (March 2030). My son's baseball life with travel and practice takes up a lot of weekend time. I also have a second evening job.

I think I'd pay someone to help me organize this. I'm not sure where to start. And what exactly do I do with Preacher Roe or Ralph Kiner cards that don't fit into my collection? lol
