When to Hire a Professional Organizer

Something I get asked quite regularly is “how do I know if I need a Professional Organizer?”. So, I wanted to share my thoughts around when it might be time to hire a professional organizer, or PO for short.

• Do you find yourself wasting time looking for things?
• Do you find yourself buying items that you eventually discover you already own?
• Do you find that almost every table/countertop is overrun with clutter?
• Are you spending money to store your stuff?
• Are you achieving your goals?
• Are you happy in your space or do you feel overwhelmed in your space?

If you find yourself saying yes to a few or more of these questions, then it’s time to hire a professional organizer. The list of benefits for working with a PO is long. PO's can put together a plan of action and guide you on where to start when you have no idea on how or where to begin. They are not "emotionally" attached to your things and therefore can offer an unbiased view on items to keep or donate. They listen to you and help you determine your true treasures and support you in letting go of things that do not bring you true joy. PO's put systems in place that are customized for you to save you time, money and anxiety!

Isn’t this a much better list to say “YES” to?

• I leave my house on time in the morning because I don’t have to spend time finding the things I need!
• I was able to save money and take that trip I have always wanted to take with my family!
• I am not ashamed of my home when my family/friends come over!
• I feel that my home is a place where I can relax and be surrounded by the people and things that I truly enjoy!

​If you've been debating on hiring a PO, give me a call. I'd love to discuss how I can help you regain control of your home and time!
