Initial Session
To keep the process simple, one room will be discussed at a time. There is an initial session cost for each room to be organized.
It consists of:
- An intake conversation over the phone or e-mail lasting 15 minutes
- Book a Virtual Appointment with VIDEO CHAT lasting 1 -1.5 hours
- We’ll send you a CUSTOMIZED ORGANIZING PLAN
- You study the plan, then a question and answer session can be booked to clarify the plan and establish a timeline for the project. This session will last about 15 minutes.
- Once a timeline has been established for the project one of two follow up options may be selected.
The value of the initial session is $250.00.eded.
Support Option 1
This works well for people who manage their time well and are motivated to get the job done.
You will work on the project and e-mail me pictures or I’ll set up a Zoom call as needed to help you:
- solve problems,
- clarify the next step,
- receive storage suggestions,
- receive donation and recycling information.
The value of option 1 is $10.00 for each 15-minute consultation requested. A retainer of $30.00 is paid in addition to the initial session cost at the beginning of the job. Additional retainers can be purchased as needed.
Julie was very helpful and informative while we were working together. She had lots of very useful and practical ideas. She was very supportive through the whole process and made the process very comfortable. Working with Julie has helped me to understand how I can best use the resources that I already have and how I can rearrange the way I am using my current storage to make it more efficient. Julie was able to help me understand how using professional organizing in all areas of my life can be beneficial. She helped me to think about using her services in other areas of my life, not just getting clutter cleaned up.

The value of option 2 is $5.00 for each 5-minute check in call.

A retainer of $30.00 is paid in addition to the initial session cost at the beginning of the job. Additional retainers can be purchased as needed.
