Question 2

What can I expect during a decluttering session?

Accepted Answer

After your initial free telephone consultation, we will be prepared for what you want to achieve during your session and work to the following schedule;
 
Decluttering and Sorting. We begin by collecting and sorting the items into like categories. This will help you to see what you own. Then you can identify the items that you wish to keep and those you would like to dispose of, donate or re-home. It is up to you how hands on you want to be during this process. If mobility is an issue for you, I will do all of the lifting and hands on work for you. When it comes to decluttering, I will provide advice, but will not make you get rid of anything. It is essential that the final decision on what to keep and what to get rid of is made by you.

Planning and organising your space. Once your space is clear of all clutter, it's time to begin the organising of your belongings and put in place some organising systems to ensure that your space works efficiently for you.
I will look strategically at the space and the areas and will provide advice and guidance on the most appropriate way to store your belongings according to your needs. It is crucial that this step is customised to you and for your family, so that you will be able to maintain it in the long term.
 
Completion & maintenance. Your space will be organised in the way that works for you. A sense of calm will emerge from the room and for many people this feels like a huge weight being lifted off their shoulders. If you are still unsure about being able to maintain the space for yourself, I can set you up on my maintenance programme.
