Since 1999, nearly every time our Client Services Manager has answered the phone and talked to people dealing with overwhelm, a common theme has arisen: most are buried in paper!
In fact, the number one organizing challenge people seem to face at home is dealing with their HOME OFFICE.
It’s a spare room and a dumping ground; its surfaces are covered in paper, and its contents creep throughout the home.
What can be done? Where do you start?
Whether you need an office overhaul or paper tutorial, we have options at Restoring Order® to help you restore your home office!
DO IT YOURSELF OPTIONS
1. If your kitchen counter and desktop are covered in paper, and you need a place to process incoming items, our Creating a Household Command Center video is a great first step!
2. If you feel like burning down your home office and starting over, there is hope! We can help you learn how to set up functional space and establish necessary stations. Our Home Offices: How to Avoid Arson video will equip you to take back this critical household real estate!
3. If paper is your nemesis, you are among the majority! Our most popular tools are our paper management videos.
- If you’re looking for an overview of ALL the paper management systems, you’ve got to get The 5 P’s of Paper Management – it will demystify paper forever and jump start your sorting and systemization process. You’ll love the demonstration that will show you how to address the archeological dig that is your desktop!
- The most complex of all paper issues is filing. No one seems to know how to create a simple, lasting, scalable filing system with clear categories and understandable file names. Most folks either avoid filing or jam new paperwork into tightly-packed, jumbled file drawers. To overhaul your filing system, you’ll want to begin with Filing Systems That Work – our video that will make you a filing genius!
- We also have a video for the four most common types of paper: Incoming Paper, Family Paper, Financial Paper, and Floating Paper. Understanding each of these systems is critical to enjoying a household free of surface paper clutter!
- The best idea (and value!) is to get the entire paper management series and watch them all! Beginning with the Five P’s of Paper Management, you will simply view each video with some popcorn and your favorite beverage, BEFORE ripping apart your current systems and getting going. You will save hours of time and headache with our handy tutorial videos!
They took years of insight and design to develop – derived straight out of our client’s greatest organizing needs. They’re the hippest, most thoughtful products you’ve experienced. Powder-coated with a shimmery silver paint and designed with patented details like removable sections and a custom drawer pull, these products are hand-crafted in Oregon in small batches. Due to our commitment to craftsmanship and the increasing cost of metal, some of our products may remain back-ordered at times. Just call our office to get on our waiting list for these special products and we will let you know when the product you want is in stock!
