FAQ
We’re a full service professional organizing business for both homes and businesses. We offer both decluttering-only (no product) sessions and full organizing sessions where we will sort, declutter, source product, organize and label. We can also work with you and/or your Interior Designer to consult before a new build or remodel. If you’re moving, we can help you declutter to stage and pack up your home. On move day we can coordinate movers and unpack/organize your belongings in your new home.

We work in 5 hour sessions, typically from 9am-2pm, Monday-Friday. The total amount of time for each project will depend and vary based on your space and pace at which you work. We will provide you with an estimate after your free consultation.
Every space is different, so after doing a free virtual consultation, we’ll send you a detailed written estimate that includes both our services and an estimate for products. Our hourly rate is $90/hour per organizer. We typically work from 9am-2pm (5 hours) and have a minimum of 2 organizers on each job.
For a single space, expect to spend at least $1500. Product-heavy areas (like kitchens) will be more.
You are paying us for our many years of expertise. We know what will work. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that the systems we set up will be right the first time. We save you time and energy, not to mention all those nights and weekends you would have spent decluttering, shopping for products, setting up systems, and labeling.
Even if you or your partner is skeptical, we will win you over! (We always do!) It’s hard to understand the impact organization can make on your day-to-day life. Once you experience organization first hand, you’ll want systems in every room of your home!
For the majority of our clients the answer is a resounding YES! You are able to maintain it easily because we have so thoroughly thought through your needs and have built for you realistic systems that will fit your lifestyle. Some of our busiest clients or those with ADHD do need our help to maintain their new systems, and we offer options for maintenance sessions at discounted rates. You can let us know if you are interested in these after your initial session.
Each additional organizer is $90/hour. Depending on the size of your project, we will let you know if we recommend additional organizers. You will make progress faster with more organizers.
No, we do offer decluttering-only sessions. It’s a good opportunity to purge, without a focus on containment and is a great option to take advantage of before a move or when you’re just feeling like you have too much stuff. We’ll send two organizers for five hours to help you work through the clutter. Sometimes, we can use things you already have for containment, but typically we do prefer to get products for you because we know what will work and what will last.
Nope…we do it ALL for you! During your consultation we’ll take measurements and use our Style Guide to learn more about your tastes and budget. We’ll then come up with a plan, order products, and bring them with us to your session. We don’t upcharge, but we do charge a fee for the time it takes to plan and source. Rest assured, we have a lot of experience and know which products will look great and work best for you and your space!
If it’s a small amount, we’ll take it with us when we leave. (We have regular donation pick-ups scheduled at our facility.) For larger amounts, we’ll schedule a free pick up for you at your home for the following day.
No, but we can connect you with local resale shops, estate sale companies, and antiques appraisers.

We accept cash, check, and credit card. A 2.9% fee will be added to the invoice for payments made via credit card. We require a 50% deposit before the session. (Deposits for Membership clients may be handled differently.)
You Googled “Professional Organizer Near Me” and found our site, or maybe you came to us via social media or at the recommendation of a friend. You’ve read through our services and these FAQs and you’re ready to get started. What’s next? The contact form! Once you submit the form, we’ll be in touch to schedule your consultation. After the consultation, we’ll provide you with an estimate and a contract, then book your first session. The hardest part is asking for help, but we’re here when you’re ready!
We can help you figure it out during your consult. A good rule of thumb – save for us the spaces where you feel the most overwhelmed (you don’t even want to walk in the room). Give us the hard stuff. You can also sign up for a Membership to spread out the investment if you’d like us to organize at least 3-4 spaces in your home. Membership typically opens up in the fall, but keep an eye on our socials!
Generally 3-4 weeks is a good time frame, so we have plenty of time for a consult, planning, and ordering products. Occasionally we can accommodate a quicker turn around time. Decluttering-only and maintenance sessions require very little lead time and can often be booked the same week, if we have appointments available.
It depends on what we’re organizing. If it’s paperwork, we definitely need you there the entire time. For other spaces, we sort for the first hour or two, then we need your help decluttering (editing). After that, it’s nice if you are available if we have questions, but you are able to work or do other things. We’ll call you back into the space when we’re done for a tour. For repeat customers, we can often ask questions via phone call or Facetime.
