Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a professional organizer?

A professional organizer is someone who assists clients with organizing their homes and personal spaces and helps improve their productivity. Organizing can include physical space, or time.

2. Do I need a professional organizer?

If you are having challenges keeping track of your items, feeling overwhelmed, finding that clutter is getting in the way of your everyday life, or are having a difficult time making and/or sticking to appointments, it could be helpful to hire a professional organizer. It is important to speak to various professional organizers to get an idea of how they work and make sure it's a good fit.

3. How much do you charge?

Because organizing is an ongoing and long-term process, organizing services are charged in packages starting at 6 hours, at $100/hr. We can work for 12 hours, 18 hours, or another set of hours that works for you. I offer to drive unwanted items to donation sites for an additional fee. My services also include unpacking services, which are charged at 2 hours minimum. Every so often I will offer discounted rates so make sure to connect via my social media accounts for these notifications!

4. Will you tell me what to get rid of?

Absolutely not! You make the decisions about your belongings- I am there to support you and ask guiding questions when you are unsure.

5. Do I have to be there for our sessions?

At least for the first couple of sessions, it is important that we work together. This allows me to get to know you, your lifestyle, your personality, and your organizing style. After a few sessions, if you find you become overwhelmed by the decision-making process, or if you have other things to take care of, I offer to declutter and organize while you are away. I will always, however, check in with you at the end of the session to ensure I receive your approval for the items I put aside to donate.

6. I want to get started! What should I do?

Great! Reach out for more information and to schedule a complementary consultation that would enable us to determine if we are a good fit.
