Does your home need to lose weight?

When the clock strikes midnight, and, like many people,  you make your new year’s resolution to lose weight, you will probably be thinking about your tummy blubber or thunder thighs. Well good for you and I wish you much success in reaching your goal. But what about your house? It is bursting to the seams with clutter and “stuff”? Are there things crammed into closets and under beds? Do you still have boxes that you haven’t unpacked from your move 7 years ago? Are you frequently frustrated when you can’t find something in your home? If any of these questions ring true, then it’s time for your house to go on a diet.

Unlike hard workouts and denying yourself the foods that you love, losing household weight doesn’t have to be painful. Like a Personal Trainer at the gym, a Professional Organizer can guide you through the process and help you reach your goal faster and more effectively. Professional Organizers are trained in asking the right questions to help you decide what stays and what goes, and then organize your space so everything has its place. No embarrassing spandex required.

From kitchens to closets, bedrooms to family rooms, a Professional Organizer can create attractive, workable storage solutions that not only enhance your décor, but keep clutter and stress at bay. Do you have a large figurine collection that is kept hidden in boxes? Did you inherit your great-aunt’s dining room set and have nowhere to put it? What about your basement? Is it a dumping ground for things you don’t know what to do with?

If the thought of de-cluttering makes you anxious then let me assure you – a good Professional Organizer is not in the business of throwing away people’s memories, histories and collections. We are equipped with lots of ideas and systems to help you streamline your home in a way that suits you. Many of our clients have expressed how wonderful they feel when they see the loads of clutter removed from their homes. They literally feel like a huge weight has been lifted off their shoulders.

We are proud to say that we only use the dump as a last resort. We have established connections with many worthwhile charities, consignment stores and other partners to donate, re-use or sell unwanted items. We are also happy to work with our clients to find solutions that align with their personal causes. It feels good to help others and if you are short on time and/or money, this is a great way to do it.

So if your home needs to drop some weight and get in shape this year, give Clutterfly Inc a call and let’s get started!
