Are you okay with cigarette smoke in the home or garage?

Unfortunately, I am extremely sensitive to cigarette smoke and cannot work in a home that has had cigarette smoke inside or inside an attached garage. 

How much is a consultation?

My consultations are free and are done virtually! You will need to be at your home for the consultation so I can see the space you would like organized. 

What is your rate?

My rate is $85/hour.

Do you work with hoarders?

No, as I do not have the psychological background necessary to work with hoarders. 

How do I determine if the home is a hoarding home? Hoarding is a psychological disorder, usually brought on by trauma. Levels range from 1-5, with level 1 not being a concern and level 5 being dangerous to both health and home. 

Can my kids be here while we work?

Ideally, no. I have 2 kids myself and there are rarely occasions where having them at home while I clean or organize is helpful!

Are you okay with pets in my house while you organize?

They are fine to be home, but should be sequestered to a different area of the home so they don’t get underfoot. 

How long will my kitchen take to organize?

All kitchens vary, but plan on your kitchen taking 4-6 hours minimum, depending on how many little items or food need to be sorted and organized.

Do I have to be there the whole time?

Not necessarily, but you will have to make decisions on what stays or goes because I cannot make those choices for you! I’ve worked a variety of ways with clients and we can always find something that will work best for you!

What should I do to prepare for our first session?

Usually, nothing! You could always clear a work space on a table or a bed for me to set things on, but other than that…just keep things as you have them!

Should I buy any organizational products prior to our first session?

Typically, no. Things can likely change and shift around during the session, and often products purchased ahead of time don’t always work in the newly reorganized space! If you do need to get anything ahead of time, we will discuss that during the consultation. 

Do you ever travel out of Minnesota for clients?

Yes! I have traveled out of the state for clients in the past! The client pays 50% of travel expenses. Send me a message or email if you’re interested in having my travel to you!

Do you clean as well?

I do a small amount of cleaning, as needed, but I am not a house cleaner. I often vacuum, dust or wipe down shelves to make sure things are nice by the end of the session!
