As with every journey…take the first step. Schedule a free, no obligation introductory consultation. We ask that you email a few pictures of your project to help us design a customized plan just for you. Our consultations are done via text, email, or telephone. We can also do a video chat if you want to walk us through your project.
Schedule an initial four-hour session. We recommend starting with four hours, which is our minimum. Most of our clients find that it is easy to do in smaller increments but it’s totally up to you…we can schedule as many hours as you like.
Pick one room to organize. The thrill of seeing one room go from chaos to calm is a great place to start.
Absolutely! ORGNZE is fully insured. We are insured for breakage and damage. While ALL our organizers are thoroughly background checked, we carry a Surety Bond for your piece of mind. We also care about our employees, so we provide Workers Compensation to them at no extra charge. We assume all the liability. If you decide to hire organizers from a different company - or a do-it-yourselfer – please, please, please make sure they are insured, or you could be liable if an accident occurs in your home!
Like so much in life, it depends. Do not buy containers in advance. We find that most people have a lot of these items already. We will make recommendations after our first session about what you may want to buy to help maintain your new organized space. We ask that you have boxes or large contractor bags available to help sort your items. We can also make recommendations. See the “Things We Love” page on our website for more ideas.
If we are working in your office, we recommend file folders or hanging files.
If we are organizing your closet, we suggest buying hangars that are all the same to create a uniform look.
This is not our focus, but we have some items on our “Things We Love” page as suggestions. We also highly recommend that you take a stroll down to your local "The Container Store", "IKEA", or similar establishment that sells storage items. You can get a sense of size and quality in person that you can't get through online photos.
No, absolutely not! In fact, you can keep collections or items in great quantities and still be organized. Like a bookcase with hundreds of books, a ticket box with concert and sports tickets, or a storage room filled with crafting supplies. Instead of having piles of books throughout the house, confine them to one specific area and arrange them creatively. The same goes for tickets; rather than having them stuffed into various drawers in your bedroom, keep them all together in a shadow box. Crafting supplies can be kept in separate containers but stored in the same location and, of course, boxes should always be neatly labeled. (see photos below.)
