Services

Effective January 1, 2025, de-cluttering, downsizing and organizing service fees are $225 for a 3 hour session. Sessions are scheduled Monday-Friday either 9AM-12PM or 12:30/1:00 to 3:30/4:00. Some flexibility in those times is possible. Additional hours are billed at a rate of $75/hour and pro-rated in 15 minute increments.

Weekend sessions are available at a rate of $170 for a 2 hour session. Additional hours are billed at a rate of $85/hour and pro-rated in 15 minute increments.

Each session includes removal of one trunkload of donations and non-curbside recyclables. This includes items to be donated at a general thrift store or to specialty locations. Toxics included in the base fee are limited to the 2 boxes the Home Toxics Center accepts without an appointment; quantities larger than that will require special arrangements.

Move management fees are $75/hour with a 6 hour minimum, because I need to block off the whole day. I will make sure the movers have drinks, lunch, snacks, and whatever else they need.

I generally work within a 10 mile radius of downtown Ann Arbor. Other locations may be possible with a travel fee.

Items sold on behalf of a client are subject to a 30% commission before any fees associated with selling the item (such as advertising, ebay fees, and shipping).

Listing items for sale that clients will manage can be done within the bounds of a work session. For example: I will take pictures and list the item on Facebook Marketplace but any inquiries will be directed to you to manage the actual process of interacting with the buyer.

I am a solo-practitioner with a limited number of appointments available each week. Last minute cancellations result in a loss of income. A minimum 48 hours notice is requested for cancellations and re-scheduling. Payment of the session fee is requested for cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice if I cannot fill your slot. Of course, things come up and exceptions can be made. When scheduling online, a credit card is requested to hold your spot. This will only be charged for cancellations of less than 24 hours.
