FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS……..Below are our most frequently asked questions. Please let us know if you have any others.
What will we do during the first ORGANIZING session?
I jump right in and we get started…...
What other supplies should I have on hand?
Please have bags available to gather recycling and waste. A rag for dusting is great too! If there are lots of items to store in the basement, we recommend clear storage bins.
My place is a hot mess, I'm going to clean up a bit before you come, ok?
Nope. Don't do it. We need to see how your space in all it's...glory...to be able to make the best recommendations on how to fix it.
This sounds awful, I'm just going to go to the gym while you work.
And that's ok. I can work by myself or I will work with you and teach you how to maintain the system and organization that I have created specifically for YOU.
I don’t have time to take all this stuff to Goodwill, will you take it?
If it fits in my Chevy Tahoe, I'll take all for you during our working session together. This is part of the service I provide. I love keeping this planet green and giving your no longer loved items to someone in need. I will also set up and coordinate donation pick ups for you for larger items such as desks, couches, etc.
What do we do with your no longer wanted, loved, liked, used "stuff" ?
We DONATE all clients no longer needed, wanted, loved “stuff” to families and community members in need. Men and Womens Veterans shelters in Ballston Spa and the Capital Region. Families that have suffered great loss due to fire. Homeless Shelters. The Saratoga Back Stretch and agencies that reach out to us for need.
Some of my items are worth money, but I don’t have time to sell them, can you help?
Consignment, E Bay, Craigslist are all options. Thred Up and The Real Real are also great options. We can help you with that as well. Other options are also available and can all be discussed during our Organizing session.
What if you throw away the coasters from my Great Aunt Maggie’s wedding?
We do not throw anything away without your permission. Period.
I really REALLY don’t want to get rid of anything, can we still get organized?
We do not require you to donate, recycle or throw away anything - We do however require you to be honest with yourself and the space you have available – both mentally and physically - for dealing with stuff.
Ok. Got it. What else should I do during our session??
Have fun! No really. You are taking the first step towards taking control of your space and your life. Let go of the old baggage and guilt. Enjoy it. Be proud! Let's make this journey fun!
Soo....I suffer from ADHD and or OCD. Can you help me?
Yes we can! Specializing in working with clients that suffer from head trauma, such as car accidents and military veterans, as well as assisting clients with patients and skillful teaching techniques who suffer from OCD and ADHD. We have fun and get it done.
So how and when do I pay you?
Payment is collected at the end of each days session via check, Venmo or cash.
Phew…we’re done. Now what?
Treat yourself well following the session. You may feel exhausted and cranky. That’s normal, you just did a lot of work and it can be emotional. Grab a glass of wine or take a bubble bath - whatever you need to do to unwind!
So what's next?
Organizing is like exercising. It's a daily habit and you have to put in the time. You're worth it...make the commitment to yourself to continue on staying Organized. It may take several session to complet the job. Each client and each job is different.
