Before the Assessment, consult with anyone sharing the space to discuss the decision to declutter and organize. Declutter My Clutter will evaluate the space in its natural state, so there’s no need to declutter beforehand – just let things be as they are. This helps Marina create a realistic plan tailored to your needs.
Not necessarily! Most clients already have plenty of bins, baskets, and storage solutions at home. Marina works with what you already own whenever possible to keep costs down and promote sustainability.
If new supplies are needed to enhance organization, Marina can research appropriate products and provide you with a detailed purchase list. This ensures you’ll be prepared for the next session while maximizing session time for hands-on work. Declutter My Clutter doesn’t purchase supplies directly but can guide you toward the best options for your needs.

Organizing isn’t just about making your space look pretty. It’s about making your life easier. Declutter My Clutter focuses on creating systems that actually work for YOU, not just for some Pinterest board or Instagram post. Here’s what sets this approach apart:
• You’re the Boss: Declutter My Clutter is here to help, but clients call the shots. You’ll make the decisions, and Marina will teach you techniques to keep your space organized long after the work is done.
• Real Life > Pinterest: Sure, perfectly arranged rainbow-colored bookshelves are nice, but Declutter My Clutter is all about functionality. If it doesn’t work for your real life, it’s not happening.
• No Fancy Sales Pitches: You don’t need a shopping cart full of overpriced bins to get organized. Marina works with what you already have and only suggests new items if absolutely necessary.
• Simple and Doable: No overwhelming emails or piles of paperwork. The process is straightforward so the focus stays on the task at hand—getting rid of clutter and creating a space you can actually enjoy.
