Perigee is the trade paperback division of Penquin Publishing (www.us.penquin.com). Every week Paxton cleans up the houses of people with this rare dysfunction, while also helping them deal with the psychological reasons behind their inability to throw stuff away; the show is A&E’s most popular, with roughly three million viewers.

Clutter Cleaner loves Maymont!

We were so excited when volunteer Ann, from the Maymont Foundation approached us about saving lawn and gardening items from our clients to donate to the annual Herbs Galore & More fundraising event this spring! Our clients were thrilled to know that some items they didn’t need or use anymore could go to an event that raises money for such a great organization. The Clutter Cleaner crew was happy to collect and store what ended up being a big ol’ truck full of fantastic stuff that we dropped off to add to the sale. The event was a wild success! The skies looked a bit rainy, but weather held off for a huge attendance of people on the hunt for goodies.

We’re already looking forward to collecting items for next springs sale and working with all the wonderful staff and volunteers at Maymont. Special Events Coordinator Roseann Walling just sent us this photo show from the event that we just had to share with everyone. Enjoy!

Thanks so much for letting us participate Ann and Roseann!
