FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

First, I’ll come to you home and meet with you. We’ll carefully evaluate your needs and talk about a strategy that will work best for you. We can expedite the work - or spread it out over time. We’ll customize the plan to suit your schedule. The initial consultation will include an in-depth discussion the best approach to help you achieve your goals.

Absolutely! I’ll be working right by your side as you decide what to keep and what to remove. I’ll also need your input on your preferences for what items should be placed in specific closets and cabinet. Once we have a plan, and a location for everything, I can work solo and you can go about your normal routine.

Yes! We’ll need to work together to separate, donations, junk, and items that you wish to keep but that should be removed from the house. I’ll recommend a storage unit and local movers, if needed.

Possibly. If you are moving, we may need to remove a number of items in preparation for staging, and those items can be placed in storage until you move into your new home.

Yes. I’ll share contact details with you and your can arrange pick-up and payment directly with the haulers.

I will take your donation items to the Salvation Army or other donor sites and will obtain donation documents for you for tax purposes. If you have a large number of items to donate, we can arrange for the donor organization or a local mover to pick up your items.

I’m happy to purchase your organizational supplies as needed. You can reimburse me for the cost (there is no mark-up). Depending on the scope of work, you may need several storage bins in various sizes, as well as labels, bubble wrap, markers, hangers, etc.

Yes, I have several contractors that I recommend to clients. Once we determine your needs, I’ll ask the contractor(s) to meet us at your home to review your request and give you an estimate. You will work directly with the contractors for any work you wish to have done. Each contractor works independently. (I do not charge any fees for these referrals, nor do I accept any liability for their work).

Yes! I can help with decluttering and staging for sale. If there are items that need to be sold, I can arrange for an Estate Sale/Tag Sale. Once the house is clear of sold items, I can recommend contractors for whatever deep cleaning and/or repairs that may be needed. It’s best to keep some furnishings in the house for final staging, prior to listing the house for sale. I may recommend adding a few home decor items.

I try to be available over a wide range of hours, to accommodate the client’s needs. That includes days, weekends and evenings.

I can return anytime to help you declutter and get things re-organized. Remember to call me before things get to far out of control.
