How long will it take to organize me?

It all depends on you. Some people are more comfortable making decisions about categories and whether to keep things. The easier it is to make a decision, the faster the job goes. A lot also depends on the size of the room. Generally, file drawers take about 3-4 hours per drawer to purge and re-organize. A small closet could take 3-5 hours. A pantry is 2-3 hours.

What do you do when it looks like a disaster hit?

First, yours is most likely not the worst mess we've ever seen. We see homes that are littered with belongings and papers every day.
We also see perfectionists who just want to be a bit more organized. We see homes on all ends of the spectrum. There is no shame in being disorganized. It is difficult for many people to stay on top of their belongings. We understand your challenges in your world and recognize your desire to get organized. We treat all of our clients with due respect. Our purpose is to help, not judge.
