Merge, Deduplicate & Organize Cloud Drives
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
Years of documents now live in both my Dropbox and Google Drive, and the chaos is slowing me down. I need every duplicate removed, the two services synced, and a clear folder hierarchy—each top-level folder named after the project it belongs to.
You’ll start by comparing the contents of both accounts, identify exact or near-exact duplicates, and delete or merge them safely. Once the drives are clean, create a unified structure that mirrors across Dropbox and Google Drive, filing every document under its correct project folder. Rename files only when it improves clarity, then sync the final structure so both platforms match one-for-one.
Deliverables
• Two perfectly matched drives, free of duplicates, organised by project name
• A concise log (spreadsheet or text) of items deleted, merged, or renamed, noting any uncertainties
• A quick walkthrough video or screenshots that illustrate the finished layout
Acceptance criteria
– No duplicate documents remain in either service
– All files reside within their proper project folders, with nothing loose at the root level
– Dropbox and Google Drive reflect identical, up-to-date content
When you respond, include examples of past work where you cleaned or archived cloud storage. Feel free to mention the tools or scripts you rely on—rclone, Dropbox Smart Sync, Google Drive API, Duplicate Cleaner, or anything similar—so I know you already have a proven approach. I’ll provide read/write access via shared links and temporary credentials secured by 2FA as soon as we agree on the workflow. Looking forward to a tidy, searchable workspace!
