Organizing and Decluttering

I’d love to help you with sorting, organizing, and letting go of the stuff that isn’t serving your life at the moment. Let’s make your systems more efficient and your belongings more accessible.

Some of my favorite areas to work on are

  • office/papers/overflowing filing cabinets/disorganized desks

  • toys/games/kid books/outgrown gear

  • pantry/fridge/emergency supplies

  • closets/storage areas

  • and creating peaceful community spaces for the family

Values:

Inclusivity: I am an advocate for non-traditional family structures and a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. I work toward improving my cultural competency and awareness of my privilege.

Consent: direct communication is important and sometimes awkward. I embrace the awkward because it’s more important that we are all on the same page and that you feel safe with me going through your belongings.

Discretion: I will not talk about your home or decluttering struggles to others. Your privacy is important to me.

Radical Non-judgment: I want everyone to feel comfortable asking for help when they need it. I’m here to help, not judge.

I am continuously learning about visible and non-visible disabilities and how to build accommodations into my organizing practice. This is a neurodivergent affirming space.

Details

  • There is $25 cancellation fee if cancelled with less than 24 hours notice, unless due to illness.

  • Travel fee: For folks north of Richmond, south of Hayward, East of Oakland Hills, and West of the Bay Bridge, there is a flat travel fee, between $30-$150 depending on distance.

  • Sick/masking Policy: I live by my calendar and will only cancel our session if I have a sick child or am having symptoms myself. If my stoic teenager is the one sick, and we’ve both tested negative for covid, I may continue offering in-person services. I will always respect requests to wear a mask in your home, even if no one in either household is ill. Please reschedule your appointment if you are feeling sick or showing early symptoms, or if someone in your household has covid, even if they are isolated. There are no cancellation fees due to illness.

  • Donations and Recycling: I am happy to haul away as many of your donation items or specialty recycling items that can fit in my small hatchback. If you know you have a large amount (more than 4-5 garbage bags) I can bring a van at an additional fee of $72. I will do my best to keep your donations and specialty recycling out of the landfill and give them a chance for a second life.

    • specialty recycling includes lightbulbs, batteries, plastic bread tags, plastic bottle caps, empty prescription bottles, CLEAN “threads” fabric/rags/irreparable clothing, CLEAN and DRY plastic film like shipping bags and bubble wrap, styrofoam, and cords and chargers.
