Decluttering and Organising Service in Perth, WA

This is the question I’ve been asked most often! It’s usually prefaced with “I don’t mean to sound rude” or “don’t take it the wrong way”.

I get it – when people call me they’re usually at their wits end and overwhelmed. The thought of dealing with their clutter makes them want to curl in a ball. That I would be excited at the prospect blows their minds.

However, once we’ve worked together they understand why I love what I do!

I know that the key to having a home that works for you and not against you is to declutter – then get organised.

I also know that when it comes to downsizing and selling a house people underestimate the negative impact of clutter. The key to reducing the stress of downsizing and maximising your sale price is to declutter – then stage before you list.

Yes! But often the single day Revamp is meant to be a kick-start to get you going. I’ll be able to get a handle on your particular needs during the initial free phone consult.

The one thing I never do is tell someone they must let go of something! My role is to help you choose what to keep and what to let go of, and find a home for a cherished item.

Yes! My service is focused on responding to people’s needs and people need help on the weekends as well as during the week!

In my experience, people often feel overwhelmed at the weekend when they’re confronted with their clutter and appreciate being able to contact someone. I’m available between 10.00-2.00 to take calls – unless I’m decluttering.

The second reason is that many people find weekend declutters work for them – either because they work full-time, need to make arrangements for someone to take care of their children so we can get cracking, or they have other commitments during the week.

Yes! I call it a ‘takeaway service’ and it’s included in the price of your Revamp. I will take it away for you if it’ll fit in the back of my ute and it’s for donation or recycling.

This one of the top questions I’m asked. Although we need to be respectful of what people own, in order to declutter your home we can’t ignore other people’s clutter. Ideally we want to bring everyone with us on the decluttering journey. What helps is the Revamp element, because when others see the end result they get inspired and excited.

If you have a lot of stuff that can’t be handled in two days then don’t worry. The purpose of the initial consult is to identify where you’re at, and what it’s going to take to get you where you need to be. If we decide that the job needs more than two days then we can discuss custom packages.

The short answer is – I respect the privacy of my clients and their feelings.

One for the biggest barriers in people asking for help is the sense of embarrassment at the state of their homes, the thought of asking if they would be o.k. with me publishing before and after pics doesn’t feel right to me.

I encourage people to take ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures so they can see the transformation we’ve achieved and ask for testimonials as a way of inspiring and reassuring people that I can help them clear their clutter.

My focus is on decluttering your home and life. Usually my clients clean as we go. For example we’ll empty a cupboard and they’ll quickly clean the shelves. Or once a walk-in-robe is cleared they’ll vacuum and wipe it down before we organise it.

Yes! Just let me know what you need. I have a comprehensive list of reliable and trustworthy trades and professionals that I recommend.

Yes! I have the appropriate level of public liability insurance and full cover for the work I do. Certificate of currency is available on request.
