As the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals (NAPO) points out, “Professional Organizers work with all kinds of people who have all kinds of organizing challenges. Likely they have seen your situation before and have solutions at-hand.” 

Whether you need to organize a single room, declutter your entire home, or are preparing to move, a professional organizer can streamline the process.   An organizer will get to know you and find out what you want to accomplish. Then, based on your goals, they will develop a plan to tackle the project in manageable tasks.

There are many benefits a professional organizer brings to your project.

A Fresh Set of Eyes:   Organizers have seen this problem and its solution before and can see your own situation from a different point of view.  Have you ever noticed that something might sit in your space for months and you just forget it’s there – it becomes part of the background.  An organizer sees this and offers suggestions to improve how the room can look and function. 

Support & Encouragement:  An organizer is an experienced coach who keeps you focused on your decluttering goals.  They will hold you accountable as you make decisions about what to keep – and help you let go of items that are unnecessary.   More importantly, they can break down a potentially overwhelming task into manageable pieces.

Knowledge:  Organizers are experts at maximizing space, clearing clutter, and they have the tools to enhance the function of your home. They want to help, offering judgement free solutions that will help you stay organized long after they leave.

If you are ready to move to a smaller home, transition to an adult community, or age in place, now is the time to call a professional organizer.
