Home Organization & Decluttering Services
Have questions about our home organization and decluttering services? We help transform everyday spaces into organized, functional, and beautiful sanctuaries—so you can breathe easier, move through your day with less stress, and truly enjoy the place you call home. These are some of the common questions we’re asked:
How do you charge for your home organization services? Do you offer free consultations or estimates?
Every project is unique, but our pricing is straightforward! Our services always include 2 organizers to start and we work in 8 hour shifts, for $1600 per day. Each additional organizer is $100/hour. The size of the project and the timeline required determines how many organizers and days are required.
Shopping, returns, donations and any coordination with contractors is done at our hourly rate of $100.
Yes! We always begin with a free, in-person consultation to walk the space, get to know our clients and give a more detailed estimate.
What home organization services do you offer?
You name it, we organize it!
From kitchens and pantries, attics and basements, to whole home organizations, if there is a space in your home that needs help, we got you!
For a more comprehensive list, see our services!
Do you help with moving or unpacking?
We sure do! While we love every aspect of organizing a home or office, our absolute favorite service is to help our customers move into a new space! We can help with both ends of the move. Purging and packing before the move, unpacking and organizing in the new space. We can either work on the entire home or focus on the priority spaces to get you feeling settled!
Need help with all of it?! We can literally handle it all for you! See our concierge moving service
Can you work with my existing furniture and organizing products, or do I need to purchase new items?
We can do either! Or, most often, we do a combination! As we work through a space, we collect all of our customers’ existing products to repurpose where it makes sense and either build onto it or replace entirely. This is all discussed with our clients during the initial consultation, when we determine what budget they are comfortable with.
The best part? We do all the measuring, sourcing and shopping to ensure that everything is a perfect fit, both in function and the aesthetic of your choice!
What should I expect during the home organization process?
A customer service oriented experience from start to finish! Our top priority is for you to feel comfortable and excited for the results!
We are here to listen. To both what is not working and to your goals for how you would like the space to function. We also consider any future goals or what is on the horizon for you! Moving, life changes coming up, minimalist or maximalist, we ensure that all these details are accounted for!
Do I need to be present during the organizing session, or can you work independently?
We can even do it while you’re on vacation!
Every organizer works differently, but at Life Simplified, we believe that you called in an expert to outsource the work for a reason (usually because lack vision or time, or both!), but it is our job to do the work so you can spend your time on the things you need to work on (or just relax!)
You will be involved, though! While we will be doing the work to pull everything out, sort and plan the space. We will have you walk through your items with us to decide what you will keep or let go, but more importantly, why you have it, how often you use it, where you use (we ask a lot of questions!). This is how we learn about you and your style so we can put everything back in a way that will work for you and that you can maintain after we leave!
Ultimately, our clients are involved a few times throughout the first day of each space as we pull out and categorize more sections. But we are used to busy clients and will work around their availability. Work calls, school pick up, gym or hair appt, we will discuss your availability for the day and build our schedule around it!
Once we get a feel for your function and style, we have even done projects while our clients have gone on vacation!
Do you assist with donations, recycling, or disposing of unwanted items?
Absolutely! The best part about hiring a professional organizer is being left with your dream space and no additional chores or homework afterward! We will take donations with us and, in larger situations, (both in size and quantity) we will arrange for pick ups for disposal and/or large donations on your behalf!
Are you insured and bonded?
Yes! We pride ourselves in being professional and have general liability insurance and only work with contractors who have insurance and are bonded.
Do you have references or before-and-after photos of previous projects?
Of course! Our portfolio shows a large range of before and after as well as client testimonials, but if you are looking for anything more specific, just ask!
What areas do you service in California?
We are based in Orange County, CA (Shannon was born and raised here!), but we service all the surrounding counties as well! LA, IE, SD
We can travel to assist on projects beyond Southern CA, just ask!
