Rental vs Purchase

When to Rent

• Short-Term Projects: If you have a one-time project that requires specialized equipment, such as a heavy-duty vacuum or a large shelving unit, renting can be more cost-effective.
• Limited Storage Space: If you lack the space to store equipment long-term, renting allows you to access what you need without the need for permanent storage.

When to Purchase

• Frequent Use: If you find yourself organizing regularly, investing in your own tools will save money in the long run and ensure you always have the necessary equipment at hand.
• Customization Needs: Purchasing allows for more customization of tools and equipment to fit your specific organizing style and client needs.

Safety Equipment

• Gloves: Protect your hands from dirt, chemicals, and sharp objects when sorting through items.
• Knee Pads: Provide comfort and protection while working on the floor, especially during extended periods of sorting and organizing.
• Safety Glasses: Essential when working with dusty or cluttered spaces to protect your eyes from debris.
