Ms R had downsized to a smaller home in Islington and while she'd been unwell, had thrown everything into the shed in the garden. Now, she was ready to turn the disorder into order with GoodGym's help.

The front of the shed seemed pretty neatly packed to Kash and Sevan. Behind that though, they could see that things had been messily piled on top of each other. Ms R wanted to make room to put more boxes in the shed, so she needed most of the contents to be removed, then repacked.

Kash got to work laying the shedded items on the patio, while Sevan was distracted by a wobbly dining chair task. 2 chairs near the house needed to be fixed, otherwise, replacement chairs would be needed from the very back of the shed. He managed to tighten up the Allen bolts with a screwdriver. They were still a bit unstable though and needed more TLC, so Kash made her way to the far end to retrieve the spare chairs.

Now to sensibly repack the shed. Anything damaged was set aside, then boxy items were put on the shed floor. Unusual shapes went on top and built up to the ceiling, including a hexagonal table that was safely wedged on top of a box. A toy ship with tall masts caused some trouble too. With everything nicely ordered, empty floor space magically appeared. Ms R was surprised by the GoodGymers' wizardry.

With the new space conjured up in the shed, finding space for Ms R's new boxes was easy and the damaged items were disposed of. The items moved out of her living space will allow her to better organise the belongings that she needs day to day.
