Frequently Asked Questions

Spacegroove’s in-person professional organizing services are primarily offered in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Greenwich, and White Plains, but if you’re outside the city and interested in my services, please don’t hesitate to reach out to discuss travel or remote organizing options!

Great question! Spacegroove is mostly me (Michelle!) and since I offer a highly personal and empathetic approach to organizing, I handle a lot of projects one-on-one; however, for some larger home organizing projects - or ones with tight deadlines - I may bring along a small, highly competent team of the kindest professional organizers you’ll ever meet. This allows me to help you achieve your decluttering and organizing goals more efficiently while maintaining the same level of care and attention to detail. 💕

The timeline definitely varies depending on your organizing goals, but I’ll always happily provide a range of how long a project may take. For instance, a single closet or small room may take one session, while full apartment organizing or major decluttering projects may take multiple days across several weeks. During your intake call, I’ll be sure to inquire about any deadlines you may have for your goals!

Absolutely not! You might feel the impulse to clean up or tidy before I arrive - resist this urge! It actually helps me as an organizer to see your space in its natural state. This gives me valuable insight into your patterns and pain points so we can create systems that truly work for you. Please know that there's never any judgement; I actually love a good mess!

When it comes to decluttering, my priority is to help you reset your space, not add to your to-do list. Reselling non-luxury items can be time-intensive with low returns, so I encourage clients to lean toward donating. Getting things out of the house feels great, and I can manage donation removal as part of my services.

If you have higher-end clothing, I'm happy to help you navigate selling with The RealReal. And if there are items - clothing or otherwise - that you’d like to try selling, we can discuss options like ThredUP, local consignment, Facebook Marketplace, etc., and create a plan for how you can tackle that task!

Ooh very juicy Q! There is a wide range of pricing for NYC professional organizing services, and it really depends on the size of your space, the scope of the project, and - of course - the experience and expertise of the organizer 😊. I do my very best to keep my costs fair and accessible and, to give you an example of cost range, past Spacegroove projects have ranged from $600 up to $10K+. Reach out and let’s make a plan that works for your budget!

Thank you so much for asking! I looove closet decluttering and organization. Between helping clients define their style so that their clothes are truly reflective of their identity (and goals!), and re-organizing their closets and dressers so that they’re more intuitive and simpler to maintain - I can’t get enough of closet organizing! If you’ve got a closet project, I’m your girl. 🌸
