Kristi Schneider has worked for me for 2 years. She has done an outstanding job in managing my house and domestic affairs while I have been out of the country. Without question, she is the totally honest, trust worthy and reliable. I would have been lost without her. I would unhesitatingly recommend her as a "Girl Friday" and house sitter.

Do you have 10-year-old spices and 5-year-old can goods in your pantry? The average shelf life of a dried store bought spice is 1 year. The average shelf life of a canned good is 2 years.
Truorder starts kitchen organization by throwing away all expired food from the pantry, refrigerator and freezer. The second step is to empty out all cabinets, drawers, and pantry.

All items are replaced in an orderly and convenient manner.
* Tip: Toss expired items after each time change during the year.
Do you have a closet full of nothing to wear? Can you get into your closet? Truorder starts closet organization by working with the client on making decisions about what to keep, donate or throw away. Donate clothes and shoes that have not been worn in one year or that are outdated. Throw away or donate items in need of repair. The next step is to install necessary organizers or install a custom closet. We then replace all items in an organized manner.

Home office organization is a unique creature of it’s own. How long has it been since you’ve seen the top of your desk? Do you have stacks & stacks & stacks & stacks of paper everywhere? You’re not alone. This is a common home office problem. The culprit… too much paper. The remedy… go paperless!
Home office organization starts with a shredder, many trash bags, a table, a label maker, hanging files, sub files and a filing cabinet. The permanent files are made first and as the sorting process occurs Truorder makes new files for all paper keeps. All paper with personal information that is no longer needed is shredded during the sort. Once all paper is sorted then all paper is put away in the appropriate files.
The last step is to go as paperless as possible. Most banking can be done online and most bills can be sent electronically.

Downsizing home contents is necessary when you move into a home with less space. Many people have trouble figuring out what they will have room for when it’s time for relocation.

Truorder professional organizing services and personal assistant services help homeowners with moving and relocation. We start the moving process by sorting home contents at least a couple of months before the move. As the sorting occurs we decide what needs to be thrown away, donated or moved to the new location. The items that are going to the new home are boxed and labeled for the move. Movers are lined up to help with relocation. Donation pick up can be arranged if needed. Personal assistants help with phone calls to turn off your utilities, change your address with the post office, and any other necessary calls or errands to help prepare for the move. Once the truck is unloaded we help with unpacking. Professional organizers put everything away in an organized manner.
