Frequently Asked Questions🤔
1. How much do you charge for your services?
Service rates are based on the number of hours purchased. Pay as you go or purchase a 24 or 48-hour organizing package for a discount. To see current rates, go to https://topnotchorganizing.com/services-2/
2. What kind of payments do you accept?
For ease of use, I prefer to receive card payments through our invoicing system. But I may accommodate cash and check if necessary. Payments are due at booking.
3. How does the process work.
First, Fill out the form on my website. Once the form is submitted you will be redirected to a scheduler page where you can book a phone consultation. In your consultation, we will discuss your needs and goals, answer questions, and book your project start date. On the project day, I will sort, purge, and organize your space to perfection!
4. How long will my project take?
Estimating the amount of time a project will take is a bit difficult. Everyone is different and every project is different. The amount of time it takes depends on the accessibility of the space, the speed at which you make decisions, and the level of organization desired. Expect most projects to take at least 16 hours with larger projects taking 48 hours+.
5. How involved do I need to be?
This is completely up to you. Some of my clients are very hands-on and want to be involved in every step along the way. Other clients just want me to come in and do it for them with as little involvement on their part as possible. I can accommodate both and anything in between.
6. What if I'm embarrassed for you to see my home?
I will not judge you for the state of your home. While most people might cringe at the sight of an unorganized mess, I actually get excited because I know I will be able to make a big difference. I always tell my clients "The messier the better!"
7. What do I need to do to prepare for our first project day?
Resist the urge to clean! I know it's hard but it's actually better if I see your home in its natural state so I can see what challenges you have and what organizing systems are already in place.
Also, please resist the urge to purchase organizing products in preparation for our project. It is impossible to know what containers will be needed until the initial sort and purge has taken place and a plan has been developed.
It's possible (depending on the project) that you may need to rent a dumpster or hire a haul-away service but we will discuss if that is a necessity at your consultation.
8. Will you make me get rid of things.
As a professional organizer the specializes in decluttering, I will help you make the hard decisions on what to let go of. I might even push you a bit... but I will never force you to discard anything. Ultimately the decision is yours and I respect that.
9. What days are you available?
I schedule organizing sessions on all days but Saturdays. Availability will vary depending on the number of clients I am currently working with.
