A Professional Organizer, is an individual who provides personal assistance, consulting, coaching, and resources to help others get organized. They possess the skills and experience to help people regain control over their environment or time.
It is hard to say exactly without discussing your space, needs, challenges and goals. Single, in-person organizing sessions start at $200 for the first 3 hours. If you feel like you can handle it but just need some guidance, a plan a plan and a couch, there are also virtual and do-it-yourself plans available. Check out out our "Services" page for more information.
As much as I would love to say a kitchen will take x amount of time or a closet with take y amount of time and a garage will take z amount of time, there are just too many variables to do so. This is why it is essential I analyze the space. Even then, I can only provide an estimate based on experience and what I currently see and understand about the space. You are in complete control of your level of involvement and your pace. Sometimes adjustments may be needed because tackling some spaces may be more difficult and emotionally draining than others.
To be very honest, this has never happened. If I believe a space will take between 3 and four sessions to achieve your goals, we will likely only schedule for 3 sessions and reevaluate later. If we have a little bit of time left over, we always find other spaces to improve!
If you order a package, your rate at which your package is, will be valid for 6 months after we complete your scheduled sessions.
I take an all inclusive approach to your organizing sessions. Prior to working together, I will give you "homework" to prepare your space or get recommended storage supplies. I will bring any trash bags or materials needed to remove unwanted items and I will haul off any trash and donations.
The short answer is YES!
Although the process is relatively the same with each client, an assessment allows me the opportinity to see the spaces and your unique posessions first hand, take measurements, better understand your challenges and your goals, and see what IS working for you so we may come up with a plan that is unique to you and your home that will have a more lasting effect.
This is the time for us to discuss your needs and to make sure that I can properly assist you in your needs, prior to investing and to make sure I am the best match for you!
Everything that you do not wish to keep will be removed from your property. I will ask you if there is a charity you prefer for your donations, if not I usually drop off at the nearest local charity and return a receipt to you for tax purposes.
