Hands-On Organizing
Our first meeting is a walk-through of your space. If there are other people living with you who will be affected by the organizing process, it would be helpful to include them in the visit. Together, we will clarify your vision and discover what’s working and what’s not working. We’ll look at whatever issues you want help with, such as:
clutter control
maximizing storage space
difficulty using the space because of physical limitations or structural organization
removal of items to be donated
moving to a new home/office with as little stress as possible
how to maintain an organized space
Come as you are – we ask that you not clean ahead of time the way you might for a guest. It’s actually better if we see how things flow naturally. Because we will see your space through different eyes, we may be able to identify some of the items you already own that can be repurposed.
Let’s make it happen! We’ll organize as a team and transform your space so that it works for you. Each session lasts about 2-3 hours, which is enough time to see progress, but not too much that you hit “decision overload.”
The number of sessions your project will take depends on the situation, but we can give you a ballpark estimate as we work together. Keep in mind that practice makes progress!
During a session, we’ll sort, purge, assign homes, and share organizing techniques with you so you can stay on top of your space after we leave.
Some organizing supplies are provided; others will be recommended on an as-needed basis.
We remove donations at the end of each session and provide you with a tax receipt upon request (when possible).
Less than 10% of our clients’ donations end up in the landfill.
We find homes for even the most obscure items, as long as they’re in usable condition. Our network of local charities, artists, and recycling programs means your unwanted items will have another life with someone who may enjoy them.
The number of Organizers and number of sessions vary depending on your needs.
Some organizing supplies are included; others may be recommended as needed and are the responsibility of the client.
Donation removal is included, if possible, when the items fit in the company vehicle(s) and the donation site is close by.
