Do you think you need to Hire A Professional Organizer?

It is important to realize, you may want to hire an organizer if you are feeling overwhelmed with the clutter in your home.  At least call and talk to a Professional Organizing Company like WOW Organizing Services in Roanoake, VA. Hiring an organizer or at least talking to one before you decide to pay for a cleaning service could save you from more headaches and pain.

In today’s article, we will cover why it is important to de-clutter before you decide to contact a cleaning service.  We will also talk about the difference between organizers and cleaning services as well as the benefits of a well-organized home. So, with no more delays, let’s get started learning why you should hire an organizer before your cleaning services.

For a first-hand look at the true importance of having your home well organized and clean, be sure to watch the following video:

Decluttering Before Cleaning

Google Maps lists twelve housekeepers in Greensboro. When doing a google search for housekeepers in Roanoke there are more. Similar numbers work in Kernersville, the New River Valley, and Wow Organizing Services‘ entire coverage area. Regardless of where each housekeeper works, they all have one thing in common. They can’t clean an area that is cluttered.

If you’re thinking about hiring a housekeeper, you should first look around your home and determine if it’s ready to be cleaned. While housekeepers can be very good at what they do, it is not a housekeeper’s job to clear clutter and organize your space.

I once spoke to a housekeeper who said something along the lines of “You wouldn’t believe what I come into. People expect me to clean their space but I can’t get to any surface!”

It leads to inefficiency and possibly the inability to do the work. If nothing else, it leads to more money being spent. So before you hire a housekeeper, be sure your space is ready to be cleaned.

Difference between Organizers and Cleaning Services

You may group cleaning and organizing together. In fact, most of us at least casually use the terms interchangeably. Who hasn’t said, “I need to clean up this room!” when what we meant was declutter it. We go into this in more detail in a blog post from March 21.

While both are needed, we shouldn’t expect someone to do it all. A housekeeper’s duties include vacuuming, disinfecting surfaces, mopping, and other general cleaning duties. What do all of these tasks have in common? They all need to have a clear space in order to complete them.

Cleaning Services Clean…Organizers Organize

There are some housekeepers out there who will do some light organizational duties but keep in mind all areas need to first be decluttered before they can be adequately cleaned. If you hire an organizer to declutter your area first and put your objects away, cleaning will be more complete, and easier and your housekeeper will thank you for it

This can be disheartening to some. It may feel like you have to clean your house to get it cleaned. But think about it from the housekeeper’s perspective. Do you ask your mechanic to clean your car before working on it? Do you ask your cable guy to clean your living room before hooking up your box? Would you want to have to declutter a space before beginning your work?

The good news is Wow can work with you or your housekeeper to get your space organized in a way that will make your cleaning more efficient and less expensive. And unlike cleaning, organizing is not something that will inevitably have to be done again – at least not at the same level.

Organize a House and You’re Organized for a Day…

We’ve all heard the phrase, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” The same is true for organizing. Organize home and it’s organized for a day, but teach someone to be organized…

We’ve all been there. Who hasn’t decluttered an office on a Monday only to have it look just the same by Friday if not sooner? It can feel frustrating, daunting, and fruitless. But it doesn’t have to.
