frequently asked questions

  • I want to be a professional organizer. How do I get started? Are you hiring or do you need an apprentice?

    Your Home Editor is not currently hiring, nor do we have need for an apprentice at this time. If you are truly interested in becoming an organizer, visit the NAPO (National Association of Professional Organizers) website to learn more. Take NAPO online courses. Read the books I've recommended in the Resources section of this website. Attend NAPO's annual conference. It is well worth the investment and will allow you the opportunity to meet organizers from your area and across the country who can be valuable mentors to help you get started. It's a lot of work to begin and run a sustainable, successful organizing business (a business degree doesn't hurt!). If you're in it for the money, think twice. But if you love to organize creatively and you love to help people in need, it's a very rewarding profession. Good luck!
  • Are you going to make me throw all my stuff away?

    No. We will never force you to throw anything away. We recognize that eliminating items can be tough, but doing so is a necessary part of the process, and can lead to unbelievable transformations. We are firm in our belief that you should only have things in your home that you love and use every day.
  • Are your services expensive?

    When considering whether or not a professional organizer is cost effective for you, consider this: decluttering and organizing can actually save you money! Every month you pay a mortgage (or rent) for every square foot of your home. So if your living room or a spare bedroom is full of clutter and is unusable, you're wasting a good portion of your monthly housing expenses on "storage fees" for stuff you don't use.

    Also, when you organize and regain closet space, kitchen cabinet space, or even garage space, it's like building an addition on your home. You may even end up making money when you organize, by eliminating the need for outside storage facilities, finding things you thought were lost, taking a tax deduction for donated items, or selling unneeded items on eBay. And of course, you cannot put a price tag on the sense of calm and fulfillment that comes from an efficient, organized home.
  • What is your cancellation policy?

    Client may cancel or reschedule a planned organizing session within 24 hours of scheduled session with no penalty. If client cancels or reschedules session with less than 24 hours notice to Your Home Editor℠, client will be responsible for paying Your Home Editor℠ for 50% of the planned session.
  • Will I have to buy a lot of organizing products?

    Not necessarily. We try to work with what you already have, thinking creatively to find organizing accessories and solutions that fit your budget. If products are needed, we will make recommendations and you may buy them for a follow-up session. OR if you prefer to have a professional find you the perfect organizing tool or storage option, after assessing your space, Your Home Editor℠ will shop for you, purchase products, bring them to you, and install them when needed. This service is provided at the regular, hourly rate.
