I'm happy to answer any questions!
Q. What is a Professional Organizer?
A. In a nutshell, we have learned how to achieve a sense of order and tidiness over time and through life experiences. While it is true that anyone can organize, what sets a Professional Organizer apart from everyone else is that we have an eye for aesthetics, know what products will work in different spaces, have a true passion for keeping spaces neat and a strong desire to help others! We teach you the basics of simplifying, editing your belongings, in addition, learn not to accumulate unnecessary belongings. We also teach practical ways on how to address clutter, how to maintain an organized space and other tips and tricks. Remember, ultimately you are looking for someone with the personality and skill set you desire in who you are welcoming into your home, helping you with your most valued belongings.
Q. How long will a session take?
A. That really depends on your space, how many areas we are working on and how quickly items can be sorted, edited before we begin organizing. During the consultation we will discuss time averages based on the space(s) needing our attention.
Q. Do I need to clean before you arrive?
A. Absolutely not, we prefer you leave your space as it is, in it's natural state. This gives us an idea of what needs the most attention and how your space needs to function for you as we implement a plan and start organizing. We've seen it all and this is a no-judgement zone. Remember, we are hired to help you, not cause more work for you. If you're budget conscious we'd recommend you purge and go through everything before we come to save on time.
Q. What's included in a Service?
A. Our basic services are sorting and organizing, with a focus on creating a designated space for your belongings, with labeled storage containers and bins. Throughout the process, we will provide professional consultation, offering different strategies based on your needs and what has worked well for our clients. During our sessions, we'll focus on implementing systems that work well for you. Services such as shopping, returns, paper shredding, etc. are also offered, but may take additional time on a day separate from your session, and we offer those services via the à la carte Options.
Q. Do you charge for a consultation?
A. Yes. Like most professional services, a deposit for your date is held. This ensures that you have your specific date reserved, both of our schedules are valued. Your deposit is then applied to any of our services. If a consultation deposit isn't paid within 3 days of initial invoice your dates will not be held.
Q. What is your cancellation policy?
A. You have 48 hours to contact us to reschedule your scheduled consultation or session(s). To reschedule an appointment please note that appointments are on a first come, first serve basis and we currently book up to 6 - 8 weeks in advance. Scheduling more than one session at a time is recommended just in case more time is needed after the first session. If less than 48 hours notice is given your consultation deposit will be held.
