Decluttering and home organising services – hands on help OR personalised declutter advice session.

Are you struggling to make progress?  You are not alone. Many people go round in circles with their decluttering attempts. If you would prefer to do your own decluttering but need help to get started, this morning or afternoon session is for you. Heather will demonstrate her successful declutter method and show you how to set ACHIEVABLE tasks in the right order. We will also discuss storage solutions. Advice tailored to YOUR home.

An organise all areas approach is the way forward if you want to keep your home tidy and organised for the long term.  YOU can achieve this, little by little, with the right method and knowledge of the DOs and DON’Ts.  I can show you how to triumph over the clutter for good. This is a fixed price session – £175. Available in some EH post codes only. If you would like to invest in this popular session please initially get in touch with your post code, a brief summary of your situation and any questions you may have.

If you’re lucky enough to have a big cupboard, let’s get it sorted.

Organising storage cupboard/s is an excellent foundation towards an organised home. This is a recommended starting point for your declutter journey.

For a lot of clients this is a priority starting point. Once you have an organised kitchen it feels like there is hope to sort the rest out.

Many kitchens can be decluttered and reorganised in a full day session.

Administration, household bills & utilities and paperwork generally – this can be a major headache for a lot of people and I can help. Is your mail and paperwork mounting up and you don’t know how to take control of it? Is your home office just not working for you?

With several years of corporate Office Management experience, I can assist with working through the backlog and devise a new system to match your needs and logic – you will feel the stress disappear knowing that you have a system in place to keep the admin in check ongoing.

Toys, books and plastic toys coming out of the walls? Clothes everywhere and not a pair of socks matching? It’s a common scene in almost all family homes.

A good declutter and efficient storage all areas is the answer to keeping your home organised and tidy ongoing. Sometimes just a couple of day sessions may be enough to get you moving in the right direction. I can also set some achievable ‘homework’ tasks in between sessions if you’d like. If budget is very limited a declutter lesson/advice session might be the best investment. See ‘your options’ section above.

Change and transitions in life are inevitable for us all. Divorce, relationship break ups, bereavement, new baby/a growing family, downsizing, moving house, ill health and incapacity – the list is endless. The circle of life can certainly bring some challenging transitions which, more often than not bring major reorganisation with regards your living arrangements. Whatever your situation I can help ease the process. A word on some specific scenarios:

New baby or a growing family.

Is your home already bursting at the seams with people and stuff? For many people it seems like a bigger house is the only option but there may be another way. Perhaps it’s possible to rearrange use of rooms/space to create an additional nursery or bedroom. See ‘your options’ section above for help available.

Downsizing 

You may be moving house once the kids have moved on, relocating after a relationship breakdown or setting up a new home in your later years. It can be tricky to know what to keep and what to let go of to make your new smaller space work.  I can help simplify this arduous task.

Home organising after bereavement.

An already deeply upsetting time also brings the need to organise – both paperwork for probate and the home generally. I have helped many clients in this situation and would be happy to offer some practical support with getting the administrative part in order and to help ease the burden of going through other items when you feel ready.  I totally understand that emotions may be to the forefront of these sessions and you are assured of empathy and compassion in help with this daunting task. As always strict confidentiality is assured.

Moving house can be an exhausting and hugely stressful time.   It is a well acknowledged fact that a clutter free home with defined zones will sell faster and for more money and without a doubt any money spent on this task will easily be recouped in the increased sale price. Selling house services come in three stages: Declutter. Home staging. Unpack & create systems in new home. You can engage with any or all services as you prefer.  For more information on home staging & unpacking services click here.

It is a fact that busy professionals often don’t have the time or energy to keep on top of organisation in the home.  No need to feel guilty about it.  You may prefer hands on help or a personalised advice session – see ‘your options’ above, then give me a call for an informal chat with no obligation, if you think you’d like to make a start.
