Organizing Services FAQ’s

You’ll be most involved when you share your goals, needs, and storage preferences in the consult and when we guide you through pre-sorted categories when decluttering (usually in a few 15-minute increments during a project).

We’ll take care of things like finding and ordering the right organizing products, deciding if the items you let go of should be donations, trash, or consigned, and dropping off donations.

Once the project is complete, we’ll walk you through your newly-organized space to review the systems with you!

You may be surprised how much easier it is once you have a system, labels, and less items in your space. When everything fits, has a purpose, and is in the most optimal spot, it’s much easier to maintain. We’ll consider storage products that are adaptable. Maintenance sessions are also available to accommodate your changing needs.

Containing items is an important step in the organizing process. They allow everything to have a home and KEEP things at your fingertips.

The cost allotted for storage products is typically about 30% of the project cost. However, every space is unique. I will work within your desired budget.

All in all, this is an investment that can prevent future waste and cost.

I value the trust it requires for you to allow me into your space. We all have that junk drawer, closet, or space at one time or another.

We’re not there to judge, we’re there to use our personal strengths to support you.

If you will be adding custom shelving or need an extensive amount of installation products, I can make referrals from my network of closet designers and facilitate the process.

Nothing will be thrown away without your permission. We will work together to store sentimental items appropriately and help you make decisions about things you are ready to let go of. We will always remember the goals and intentions you have for your space. I’m a minimalist with a sentimental soul, so I can help you strike that balance.
