HELLO LOVELY!
I'm Lou
And I've moved house many times - and downsized too!
My name is Louise, but most people call me Lou and you can too!
I set up Declutter with Lou to help people declutter and organise their homes at times when they need a helping hand.
I’ve always enjoyed helping people to get organised in various capacities, both in the workplace and in my personal life.
How it all started...
During my career, I have worked for some of the world’s leading organisations in project coordination and admin. This corporate background has given me the skills to coordinate and organise and think logically about the steps to any project!
In fact, I loved organising so much that, when I realised something was missing in the corporate world, I decided to launch my own business, Declutter with Lou. I want to help people like you when they need it the most. To find some organisation in the chaos, and to provide a helping hand during difficult or stressful times.
From personal experience to business inspiration
As a British ex-pat, I lived in Sydney, Australia for 22 years, returning to the UK in July 2019. With 2 international moves, and 7 house moves in Australia, decluttering and staying organised has required me to devise solid strategies to stay on top of the
whirlwind of clutter during each house move.
Each time taught me new ways to refine our planning when moving again until it we had it down to a fine art!
Moving home is one of life’s most stressful events, but once your flock have flown the nest and it’s time to think about downsizing and look forward to a new lease on life – it’s also time to consider how you want the next phase of your life to feel like.
A home filled with memories and laughter often come with cupboards full of things – that won’t all be able to move with you, and you know what? That’s OK!
Taking the time to declutter before downsizing will give you not only time to relive fond memories, but give you clarity on what you do need moving forward. If that feels like a lot right now, and overwhelm is taking over, don’t worry you’re in the right place to find the inspiration, motivation and the “How-To’s” of decluttering and downsizing to your new home.
Get results like these
I honestly could not have decluttered without Lou’s guidance and support. I could not have tackled it without her, I was so overwhelmed
with it all. She is such a calm person and so motivational. She was an absolute star! I can never thank her enough. I would fully recommend her services without
any hesitation.
We had several rooms where you couldn’t even see the floor due to clutter and thinking “we need to keep everything”.
Thankfully we met Lou last year and were able to call on her services. Over the last few months, we’ve been using Lou’s services to declutter at a pace to suit us.
Lou suggested going room to room throughout the house and it worked a treat. Following her advice, we have managed to keep the items we really wanted, dispose
of the junk and give as many items as possible to local charities.
Why didn't I do this sooner?
That's all I kept saying to myself! And of course it was overwhelm holding me back, but with Lou's help we're ready to downsize our home. I really appreciate that Lou has helped us with rehoming as much as possible and minimising what had to go to landfill, it makes me feel so much better knowing our things will be of use to someone else.
