Getting started
What does a professional home organizer do?
A professional organizer helps you sort, declutter and set up systems for the spaces in your home, such as closets, pantries, garages and home offices. The goal is a home that is easier to use and easier to keep tidy.
How do I get started with Top Tier Tidying?
Call or text 737-376-1599 or fill out the contact form to book a free consultation. We talk through your space, your goals and your schedule, then suggest a plan.
What areas do you serve?
Christina works in homes across Austin, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, Leander and Manor. If you are nearby and not sure, just ask.
Can you organize just one room or space?
Absolutely. Many clients start with one closet, pantry or garage and add other spaces later.
During your session
Do I need to clean or tidy before you arrive?
No. It is more helpful to see your space as it is day to day, so we can build a system that fits how you live.
Will you make me get rid of my things?
Never. You decide what stays and what goes. We ask helpful questions and make the decisions easier, without pressure or judgment.
Do I need to be home during the session?
It helps to be there for decisions, especially for closets, paperwork and keepsakes. For some spaces, many clients step away once the keep and let-go choices are made.
Do you bring organizing products?
We recommend products only after we edit, so you buy the right sizes and only what you need. We can shop for you or use what you already own.
What happens to the things I decide not to keep?
We sort them into donate, recycle and trash, and can take donations with us when possible so they leave the house right away.
How long does an organizing project take?
It depends on the size of the space and how many decisions need to be made. A single closet or pantry may take a few hours, while a whole home or garage may take several sessions.
Moves & life changes
Can you help me before or after a move?
Yes. We offer pre-move decluttering, organized packing, and unpacking with full setup of your kitchen, closets and other rooms in your new home.
Do you work with seniors and families who are downsizing?
Yes. We help sort keepsakes, plan the new space and coordinate with family members, always at a pace that feels comfortable.
Trust, privacy & payment
Are you background checked?
Yes. Christina is background checked and holds a 5.0 star rating on Thumbtack.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept Apple Pay, credit and debit cards, PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, cash and check.
Is my information kept private?
Yes. We treat every home, and everything in it, with care and discretion. Ask us anytime about how we handle photos of your space.
What is the difference between a house cleaner and a professional organizer?
A cleaner focuses on surfaces and dirt. An organizer focuses on your belongings: deciding what stays, where it goes and how to keep it that way. Organized homes are also much faster to clean.
