So that’s what WE think we do. What do our clients think we do for THEM? In their words:

  • I don’t feel overwhelmed anymore
  • Our downsize was carried out with the utmost efficiency and professionalism, we couldn’t praise you enough.   
  • You made the decluttering a positive experience for me
  • Thank you very much for your assistance in my relocation. Your help was invaluable.
  • It was great having someone to help and motivate me
  • You were a life saver during my stress and anxiety.  I really appreciated your attention to detail and it was so reassuring knowing that I had someone to call on if I started to implode.  
  • You helped me overcome my embarrassment
  • I never felt as though I were being judged
  • Even though you have just spent many hours unpacking my life, you were somehow not at all intrusive!
  • I really feel as though a weight has been lifted from my shoulders

How to declutter when you can’t access charities

I was on the radio this week talking about this. Unfortunately the host decided to go off-topic and my list I had prepared didn't get to be discussed! Rather than waste it, I thought I'd do a blog post about it. So, here are 10 ways to declutter and organise when the charities are closed: Create an "unwanted zone". This temporary zone can house your unwanted items until you can get them … [Read More...]

Your excuses to yourself aren’t helpful

You know what I hear a fair bit of? Excuses. It's understandable, and I empathise (after all, most of our behaviour does have a reasonable justification!), but the reality is that excuses are incredibly unhelpful.  They are normal, and expected, and we do it instinctively, but they are still unhelpful in helping us achieve all our goals. Therefore, it's vital that we catch them when they … [Read More...]

How to avoid this downsizing mistake

Downsizing is very different to a regular move. There are additional things to consider, the biggest being decluttering your belongings so that they fit in the smaller space. Many people discover only after they have moved, that they can't comfortably fit all of the stuff they brought with them into the new home. One client recently had well over a dozen boxes of stuff that would not fit in … [Read More...]

Tips to stop impulsive shopping

Tips to stop impulsive shopping

October 12, 2022 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

It doesn’t matter how good we are at decluttering, or how much we do it, it’s not going to make any difference if we keep acquiring more stuff to take its place. Shopping impulsively (and compulsively) affects a lot of people. It’s not surprising – culturally we are expected to acquire, and we are encouraged […]

Questions to ask before you acquire

March 2, 2022 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

One of the reasons we get cluttered is because we acquire a fair bit of stuff rather unintentionally. We let bargains and marketing and the need for “newer” or “better” get the upper hand over us. Instead of asking yourself “Can I afford it?” and “Do I wanted it?” when shopping – ask these questions. […]

A few reasons why you have too many clothes

December 13, 2021 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

For those of us that have more clothes than space (and I count myself in that right now because when I unpacked my summer clothes out of rotation last month, I got a shock at how full my wardrobe suddenly was!), then it’s helpful to understand WHY, so that after a declutter, it doesn’t fill […]

Sell or donate? Here’s how to decide.

You’ve done it. You’ve decided to de-own an item and say goodbye to it. What next? Well, it’s another decision – sorry! You need to decide next on what you’re actually going to do with the stuff. There are a few options that can be simplified into: Sell Donate Recycle or landfill If you’ve decided […]

Conditions that can masquerade as “hoarding”

Conditions that can masquerade as “hoarding”

January 25, 2021 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

I have had quite a few clients that have been told they are “hoarders” (by experts and non-experts alike). Some diagnosed and some not diagnosed. And many clients have self-diagnosed themselves as “hoarders” also. I have also had professionals (support coordinators, social workers etc) say “This person is a hoarder”. However, there are a LOT […]

3 Types of “Stuff Homelessness”

3 Types of “Stuff Homelessness”

October 15, 2011 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

One of the biggest causes of clutter is one technical error we all make – some things just never get a home. Even fairly organised homes have some areas that continue to trip them up. They are: Things that don’t belong to you. Books or DVDs you’ve borrowed (from friends or the library), the platter left behind after a […]

The Not Ours spot (or box, or basket…). If you don’t have a home for things that don’t belong to you, you need one of these! Some of the things that can go into it include: library books & books borrowed from friends borrowed DVDs salad bowls and platters left after a dinner party hair […]
