Frequently Asked Questions
The first step is to book your organization phone consult. After this consult, we will make a decision together on where to start. We will evaulate your organizing goals and unique situation, and then tackle the spaces that are most painful and go from there.
The cost of an organization session depends on the type of project, size of space, volume of items, and additional factors. We have a 4-hour minimum for each organizing session.
We accept cash, checks, Venmo, PayPal, and Zelle for payment of services.
If multiple organizing projects are booked at the same time, our team can provide a custom quote based on the total hours of service and volume of work.
Because of the efficiencies provided by multiple projects, the overall project rate can be lower.
Our standard operating hours are Monday through Friday from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm.
Evening hours are possible upon special request if your schedule demands it. Weekend hours are possible at an increased session rate.

Day of Session Questions
We ask that you leave your space as is and make sure you have enough trash bags.
Our team wants to see things in their natural state so we understand the flow and routine of your space. Cleaning up prior to your session will be counterproductive.
Any other organizing products you use throughout your house may be useful as we move through the space, however it’s not required to purchase anything.
Organizing products are not included in the quote. Any products required to maximize your space are an additional cost.
B. Organized does not up-charge on products, but we do charge our standard hourly rate for sourcing products for your space.
This happens fairly often. If this occurs we will pivot, reevaluate the timeline, and modify the plan accordingly.
There are a number of ways to organize a space. We believe that if we are working together we will move faster through a space, but life isn’t perfect! There are distractions, kids, pets, and other priorities. Our team can work with or without you present.
If working solo, we will establish ground rules and put a plan in place. If we work alongside one another, you will learn new skills and reinforce existing ones!
Just because you’re looking to get your space in order, doesn’t mean you have to get rid of all your stuff! We’re here to make “the purge” less stressful and more intentional.
We will ask you questions like “do you love it?”, “do you use it?”, “do you need it?” so your space is intentional and purposeful at the end of the session. We will not throw away anything without your permission.
Any item which is not clearly trash will be donated! Donations will be taken off your hands at the end of every session. Our team works with charities across the Philadelphia area to re-home items to those communities in need.
We will handle all disposal / donations and send you the appropriate tax documents!
