🧡 Why I usually only see one client per day
This is something people are sometimes surprised to hear, so I thought I’d explain.
Decluttering and organising isn’t just physical work — it’s mental and emotional work too. Every session requires a huge amount of focus, energy, decision-making and compassion. I’m not just moving things around a house, I’m supporting people to make decisions, let things go, and change how their home works for them.
Because of that, I’m usually limited to one client per day. I want to make sure I have the physical and mental energy to give each client the support they deserve and to get the most out of every session.
I do have clients who live in the same town, and on paper it would make sense to see more than one client in a day and reduce travel time. But I know from experience that this doesn’t work — not for me and not for my clients. People deserve my full energy, patience and focus, especially when we’re working in the more difficult or overwhelming areas of their home.
I also take your investment seriously. You’re not paying me to do the easy jobs that you could do on your own — you’re paying me to help you get started (which is often the hardest part), and to support you with the areas of your home that feel the most overwhelming or challenging.
Another practical reason is this — quite often my car is filled with bags for charity and recycling by the end of a session. When that happens, I don’t always have the space to go straight to another client the same day.
If I’m working with clients on consecutive days, it’s not always possible to get to the recycling centre or charity shops in between, so I store items in my garage until I can do a charity run or a trip to the recycling centre — which I often do on my day off.
This work is important to me, and the people I work with are important to me. So I try to make sure I show up with the time, energy and patience that this kind of work really requires.
Sometimes having someone alongside you makes all the difference. 🧡
