FAQ
A professional organizer brings clarity, structure, and strategy to your space—especially when it feels overwhelming to do it on your own. At Making Sense Of Spaces™, we start with the end result. We don’t just “tidy up.” We assess what you own, how you live, and how your space currently functions to create systems that reflect your lifestyle.
Hiring a professional organizer isn’t about perfection—it’s about ease, strategy, and getting your space to truly work for your life. Our expertise saves you time, energy, and decision fatigue. We clarify your vision, optimize the layout, build maintainable systems, and take care of every detail from planning to execution.
We accept cash, check, Venmo, Cash App, and credit cards (a 3% processing fee applies to credit card transactions). Payment is due in full before your first session.
Each session includes planning, hands-on organizing, layout strategy, shopping (if needed), donation drop-off, labeling, and system creation. We manage the details so you can focus on living in your space—not managing it.
Services begin with a 4-hour minimum. Because every home and project is unique, estimates are based on your goals and the time required to create a full transformation. Pricing includes planning, shopping, implementation, donation drop-off, and more.
Full payment is required before your first scheduled session to secure your time and allow preparation to begin.
Please don’t be! This is a judgment-free zone. We’re here to help you gain clarity and comfort in your space—not critique it.
We understand plans change. Out of respect for our time and yours, we ask for 24 to 48 hours’ notice for any changes to your scheduled session.
Yes—shopping is part of our full-service experience. We source, select, and purchase products for you (with your approval). Product costs are billed separately, and larger/heavier items must be shipped or picked up by the client.
You’ll experience more peace, better focus, saved time, easier routines, and a home that finally supports your life—not the other way around.
Timeframes depend on the size of the space, amount of belongings, pace of decision-making, and involvement level. The following are some time estimates based on the average home and space:
Bathroom 4-6 hours | Closet 8-12 hours | Bedroom 12-24 hours | Kitchen 8-12 hours |
Pantry 6-10 hours | Linen Closet 6-8 hours | Home Office 8-12 hours | Garage 40-60 hours |
Playroom 8-12 hours | Unpacking 24+ hours | Unpacking + Full Setup 60+ hours | Whole Home Transformation 60+ hours |
We recommend being available for the first session to make key decisions. After that, your presence is optional—we can keep things moving as long as we can reach you for quick check-ins.
Absolutely not. You’re always in control. We guide and support you through the process, but all decisions are yours.
No! Please leave your space as-is. Seeing how things naturally function helps us assess and create better systems.
