Worry no more! 


Paperwork is a big problem in homes all around the world. It appears through your letterboxes, piles up EVERYWHERE and leaves you with the gigantic task of sorting it all out. Paperwork causes annoying clutter hotspots all around the house and it never seems to go away!

And while you may have a filing system of sorts, it's most likely outdated, bursting at the seams and under utilised. Your filing is often on top or in front of the filing system rather than inside it!

You have been burying your head in the sand for way too long and you know the time has come when you need to jump in and tackle it...but how?

Let's be real here - who on earth gets excited about the prospect of decluttering and organising paperwork? Well, we do but then I guess you knew that.

If you're going to trust us to help you with something as important as paperwork, then you're going to want to know who we are and why we are the right people to help you along this journey.

Let's cut to the chase.

We've been tackling paperwork for over 28 years between us and we LOVE how a paperwork sort out makes people feel and what a difference it makes to the calm in a home.

We would go so far as to say paperwork is undoubtedly the most important area of your household to take control of.

We have delved into every category of paperwork with people all over the world and we've learnt a thing or two along the way and we want to share the paperwork love!

We live, eat and breathe decluttering. It comes as no surprise that paperwork is a HUGE problem for so many people. So we want to filter those filing cabinets, purge those paperwork piles and curtail, categorise and containerise that clutter.

So if you want to get your Project paperwork underway, we'd love to be with you every step of the way.
