“A quick note to say thank you for the gardening service you provided. Wow!! The amount of work that was done in our back garden would have taken a month of weekends to complete (Task Angels spent one day there, with one gardener!). It was great that all the garden waste including the old greenhouse was taken away. We now have a garden twice the size and the kids love it. Thanks again, great service and great value for money.” Adrian, Bognor Regis

Office De-cluttering

Technology has finally enabled you to work from home, but the lines become blurred when office and nursery are separated by only a wall. Access to your kids is invaluable, but the distractions are hard to overcome and require discipline (for the kids and yourself). You are a father, managing two businesses and children out of your home in Chichester. Your office has become a dumping ground: paperwork from the old business mixed in with the new. Scattered throughout the office are dolls, finger paintings, and toy cars underfoot. The challenges of separating work from life are exaggerated by a lack of organisation. You reach for your stapler and get a rubber ducky; rummaging for a new client’s business card, you only find our own cards from a business you are trying to phase out. You need a system.
Enter: Business Angels.
With your instructions, your Angel starts de-cluttering. You want your new business paperwork moved to the more accessible filing cabinets. The outgoing business papers should be sorted, unnecessary files shredded and client details stored out of the way. A system should be created to manage stock (not a pile on the floor), and all non-work items (e.g. kids art supplies) should be relegated back to the playroom. Your Task Angel does it all, empties out the office and removes the cobwebs, then puts things back deliberately, or moves them to a new home outside the office. The Angel checks in occasionally, asking, “keep this, or bin it?” Eventually, the toys are in the play room, the desk is visible, the stationary is tucked away in a bottom drawer, and an logical system of organisation is in place. Order is restored. The new business is easiest to reach in the filing cabinet, and everything is labeled. The office is now an office again, and you can work more effectively with everything in its proper place.

Don’t use it? Sell it on eBay!

Your house is full of things you never use: those awful shoes Aunty Liz bought you, still in the box; a pile of Playstation games the kids never play; that pair of skis that never got used last winter. It’s a waste of space to you, but perfectly usable if someone would take it off your hands. There’s no better time for a clear-out, and if you want cash for those things that shouldn’t go to the tip, Task Angels can sell them for you on eBay! We’ve sold a range of items for clients, and our office is filled with random bits and pieces, like cashmere sweaters, yoga mats, anatomy posters, recording equipment, wireless routers, Denby tableware, and even the occasional boat (well, not INSIDE our office). Not just any junk can fetch money on eBay, but our well-trained eyes can tell which of your items will start a bidding war and which are better suited for the car boot sale (we’ll do that for you, too). All you have to do is hand it over and we do all the photographing, listing, communicating with bidders, and shipping, then hand you a cheque at the end! What’s more satisfying then clearing out your attic, AND getting some cash in return? Simply drop off your things, or give us a call and we can arrange collection. Daunted by the clutter clearing process & working out what to keep, sell or throw out? Then we can help with that too!

Decluttering

It’s amazing how soon clutter builds up in your home and how difficult it is to make time to sort it out. Don’t worry – a Task Angel is on hand to help you, and trust me, this really is our specialty!

We can look at the things you have accumulated over the years with a fresh pair of eyes and help you make the decision about what you need, what you can sell, what to give away and what should be thrown away. When your home is clearer it will be much less trouble for you to look after and you will be delighted with the new sense of space that comes when you declutter your home.

Who knows – you may even be able to make some money by selling your old things at a boot sale or on Ebay (another service offered by Task Angels!) Contact us now to discuss what you need us to do.
