Process
Our holistic approach recognizes that organizing is about much more than just “stuff” – it’s about the emotional, physical, and mental, aspects of life. We acknowledge, honor, and make space for the fullness of the client’s experience as they transition spaces.
1. Connect
Each move is different. As a first step toward your move, Mindfully Minimized connects and outlines the steps involved in your move, helps you understand what we can do for you, and answer your questions and concerns. Are hourly fee structure is simple and streamlines to prevent any budgeting surprises and allows you to have control over what is or is not done. We realize that connecting with the people who will manage your move is an important step toward feeling confident with this next big step in your life. We strive to have the same professional organizer constant with each client during their entire transition.

2. Planning Your Move
​
Sorting
Let Mindfully Minimized make this time-consuming and energy draining process easier. We can help you identify what you want to take with you, items to send to family or friends, and options for donation or sale of your belongings.
​
Floor Plan
Mindfully Minimized can measure your new home and the furniture you plan to take with you. Using our floor plan design system, we help you decide how your furniture will best fit in your new home. On moving day, the final plan becomes an important tool in streamlining the move-in process.
​
Coordination and Management
There are many people and many scheduling details involved in any move. To make certain that your move is seamless and efficient, we take care of these details for you.
We can make all the necessary arrangements and ensure that everyone involved - from your realtor or your new residence manager to the professional movers - is kept informed of your schedule.

3. Your Moving Day
​
Packing Your Belongings
Our goal is to create a home that is ready for you to live in - so you can move on with your life. Mindfully Minimized can carefully pack your household, room-by-room, preparing everything for the professional movers. We take care to note how things are arranged and organized and then we recreate the very same order, minimizing the sense of disruption to your life. Our team trained to pack with attention to detail, because we know that's important to you.
​
Unpacking and Setting Up Your New Home
We supervise the movers who load your belongings for transport and then supervise the unloading and placement of your furniture and boxes - ensuring everything is placed according to your floor plan.
We then unpack your belongings, set up electronics such as your computer, TV and stereo systems, make the beds, and arrange things in your kitchen and bathrooms. You will find your bedside tables, china displays, picture groupings, and even the order of books on the bookcase the same as you left them if this is something that is important to you.
We hang your pictures, hook up phones, and set your clocks. And when we are finished, we remove all the packing material, leaving your home in order and ready for you to enjoy.
