Not sure you’re ready to hire an organizer? Not sure how it works? That’s totally understandable. Here are a few common questions and answers to get you started.
How do I know you will be a good fit?
It is so important to feel like your organizer is the right fit for you! Decluttering can be a very emotional thing. You want to make sure that you have someone to guide you who you are completely comfortable with. I offer free consultations over the phone. We discuss what areas you want to work on, and your organizational goals.
If after our call you feel like you would like to move forward, I charge $25 to come out to the home. We further discuss the space, and go into a little more detail about you and your project. If you decide to schedule a session, the $25 fee from the home visit is rolled into payment for your first session.
Depending on the size of your project, the home visit may not be necessary. If you just have a closet to tackle, we may be able to accomplish everything we need to over the phone. At that point if you are ready, we can schedule a first visit.
How do you charge for your services?
For in-home services I charge in 2-hour increments. There are discounts for purchasing sessions longer than 2 hours. Larger packages can be broken into multiple sessions, but payment for the full package is due at the first session.
Payment is due at the time of service. I accept cash, Venmo, Google Pay, Apple Pay and credit card. Check out my packages and services here!
Do you do all the work?
I am there to help you achieve your organizational goals. I will never be the one to decide when something goes. The client must ultimately make the decisions on what is most important and useful in their home. I am there to help guide the process and offer tips and suggestions. Together we will create a plan that will best work for you. My goal is for you to learn how to stay organized, so “doing” is essential.
Do I have to get rid of everything?
No! My goal is to work with you to get rid of the belongings that no longer serve you, or bring you joy. I will be there to challenge you to really evaluate what you need and love…but the decision is always yours.
Do I need to clean up before you come?
Please don’t! In order for me to see how you are using a space, and evaluate the trouble spots, I need to see your space as it is. I promise that I approach each project with zero judgement, and a true desire to help you reach all your organizational goals.
Do I need to purchase anything beforehand?
Nope! Chances are you have most of what we will need already. We can get creative and find solutions for your problems with items you already own. I can make suggestions for items, if needed, and can also do the shopping if you prefer. I would be paid only for my time. There is no upcharge for anything I purchase for you. You will never be pushed to purchase anything.
How do I know it will stick?
Whether you have tried to get organized in the past, or this is your first attempt, I will work with you to create a plan tailored to the way you live your life. We will evaluate your problem areas and identify bad habits. We will then discuss your goals to find solutions that will work best for you. When we come up with a plan that truly work for you, it should require little effort to keep it up. If you ever begin to feel like something isn’t working, or feel out of control again, I got you. You can always call or email with questions or concerns. If you would prefer, we can schedule another visit, to make modifications. Your continued success is my number one goal!
