Clutter by the Numbers
Looking for motivation to declutter your home? You’re not alone. Clutter affects more than just your space, it impacts your time, mental clarity, and overall well-being. Here are some powerful decluttering statistics that reveal just how common, and costly, disorganization can be:
| 300,000 | The average number of items in an American home |
| 2.5 days per year (60+ hours!) | Time spent looking for lost items |
| 25% | Households that can’t park in their garage due to clutter |
| $2.7 Billion-that is with a B! | What Americans spend annually replacing lost items |
| 80% | Of what we keep, we rarely or never use |
Let’s get started and bring calm back to your space!
Our Organizing Process
Transforming Spaces, Empowering Lives starts with a simple, supportive process designed to meet you right where you are. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed or just need a refresh, we’ll move step by step—together. Here’s what to expect:
STEP 1: DECLUTTER
We start by thoughtfully reviewing your belongings to determine what you use, need, and value. This step clears out the excess and creates a clean foundation, helping you gain clarity and control over your space.
STEP 2: ORGANIZE
With a fresh start, we implement customized organizing systems that are both functional and easy to maintain. Each item is given a purposeful place to support your daily routines and reduce stress.
STEP 3: MAINTAIN
We provide simple systems and easy-to-follow routines that support long-term success. We also offer optional maintenance sessions to refresh your systems, adjust to life changes, and keep everything running smoothly. Our goal is to help you stay organized, not just get organized.
Hi, I’m Anita! Founder and owner of A Functional Home! I am a former social worker and now a passionate organizer. With a strong foundation in helping people navigate life’s challenges, I bring empathy, structure, and a judgment-free approach to your lifestyle.
My background in social work taught me the power of listening, understanding, and meeting people where they are. I use those skills every day to help clients declutter their homes, and manage their stress. I take a holistic approach to organizing — looking at the whole picture, not just the clutter. That means considering your routines, habits, family dynamics, and goals, so the systems we create work in real life, not just for a Pinterest photo.
My goal is simple: help you spend less time managing stuff and more time living. Transforming Spaces. Empowering Lives.
Here’s a few fun facts about me:
🐾 Animal Enthusiast – I’ve never met a furry friend I didn’t love.
💛 Golden Girls Fan – Dorothy Zbornak is my spirit animal.
🎸 Gen X Girl – Still knows how to wind a cassette with a pencil (and still listens to ‘80s hairbands while organizing)
I’m so happy you’re here!
Let’s create a space that feels as good as it looks!
Transform your space and empower your life.
