Q: How many hours will it take to declutter, organize, or decorate my space?
A: The number of hours required to complete your project will be determined after our initial walkthrough and consultation.

The most common amount of hours (although this is NOT a guarantee that this will apply to your project):

Home decorating - 5 hours per area/room: 3 hours sourcing, 2 hours implementing.

Organizing, decluttering and moving assistance hours depend on the amount of items that need to be processed.

Q: What’s involved in professional organizing?

​

Q: When is the payment due?

A:

For organizing: Payment is due in full immediately after work is completed (each day).
