FAQ

Do I need to be present during organizing sessions?

Yes, some of the time. You will need to work with me to make decisions about decluttering. I will also need you to give feedback on your organizing preferences. Once we have decluttered and I have your input, I can work alone to finish a space. Projects vary, but on average I expect to work at least half of a project directly with a client.

 

How long does it take?

It depends on the size of the project and the amount of items to sort through. On average, during a 4 hour session, I can complete a hall closet, a kitchen pantry, or a large bedroom closet. A full kitchen, garage, or basement can often be completed in 10 hours. Organizing sessions are 3-4 hours long and large rooms are scheduled over multiple days.

 

What containers and products will be used in my project?

I will suggest products for you to purchase from local or online stores such as Amazon, Walmart, and Target. I can also use some of your existing containers and storage products.

 

Do you take and drop donations?

Yes! I remove donations from your home and drop locally at Salvation Army, Goodwill, Planet Aid, and, on occasion, my local Buy Nothing Facebook group. I can take donations of clothes, books, toys, and most household items. I cannot take furniture, oversized items, trash, recyclables, or hazardous materials.*

 

Is my mess going to shock you?

No! I’m in the business of organizing and I expect to walk into messy spaces. There is no need to be embarrassed. Together, we will conquer the clutter and chaos so you can enjoy your space!
