How much does it cost?
I charge $50 per hour for the time I spend in your home and traveling to and from the store to purchase organizing products. A typical 1-day session (where we organize one room or area) usually takes around 6 hours, but this can vary based on how much stuff you have, how much editing we do, and your specific goals. I require a 4-hour minimum for any job.
In addition to the hourly rate, you'll reimburse me for the cost of any organizing products I purchase for your space and any Ubers I take to transport the products to your home. I’m fully transparent about these costs and will pass along the exact amount I paid—no markups. I usually shop at The Container Store, where I receive 20–30% off, and those savings go directly to you.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes! Our initial video call is completely free and comes with no obligation to book. During the call, you'll give me a virtual tour of your space and we’ll talk through your goals. I won’t provide detailed organizing advice during this call, since that’s part of what clients pay me for—but it’s a great way for us to see if we’re a good fit.
For some jobs—especially if we’re adding furniture or making more complex changes—I may recommend an in-person consultation. In that case, I charge a $100 deposit, which helps cover the time and effort involved in the consult. If you decide to book a session, that $100 will be fully deducted from your final bill. During the consult, I’ll take measurements and assess the space more closely, and then afterwards I'll spend time browsing for the best organizing products before coming back to implement everything.
What areas do you serve?
I'm based in Midtown Manhattan and primarily serve clients in:
- Manhattan
- Western Queens (Astoria, Long Island City)
- Nearby Brooklyn neighborhoods (Williamsburg, Downtown Brooklyn, etc.).
What if I live outside of your usual service area?
If your home is farther away and I'd need to rent a car and/or stay overnight, I’ll create a custom travel package to cover transportation, accommodations, and meals. The $50 hourly rate still applies for the time I spend organizing your home.
How much input do you expect from your clients?
As much or as little as you'd like! You don’t need to come in with ideas or a clear vision—I’ll guide you through everything. What’s most important is that you’re honest and communicative when I ask for feedback. If something doesn’t feel right, I want to know! I’ll offer suggestions based on your lifestyle and space, and together we’ll build a system that works for you.
Do I need to be there the entire time?
Not the entire time—but your presence is crucial for the first 1–2 hours. That’s when we do the “edit” (decluttering), and it’s important that everyone who uses the space is involved in deciding what stays and what goes.
Once that part is done, feel free to run errands or relax—I just ask that you keep your phone nearby in case I need your input on anything.
