Stacey and her gang, organiser Dilly, carpenter Rob and cleaner Iwan, challenge the Bufton family to sort their life out in seven days. To do this, they'll have to embark on a mammoth declutter. They ask the family to try and let go of half their possessions so that they can then beautifully reorganise their home.
With Stacey's help, the family start packing all their possessions into boxes. Every single item is stripped from the family home, revealing just how much space there is under all their belongings.
We get to know the family behind the clutter – single dad Craig has been bringing up his young daughters, six-year-old Merywen and four-year-old Wren, after their mum, Lois, passed away from cancer four years ago. Supported by Lois's close family, dad Craig feels now is the right time to tackle the clutter in their home and make a positive change for his daughters.
Packing up the house is an emotional process, and with the house now empty, all the family's possessions are taken to a giant warehouse and beautifully displayed like an art installation of their lives. There are thousands of belongings, including 197 teddies and dolls, 121 old socks, 373 pieces of unopened mail and 1,239 books.
Stacey and Dilly are on hand to guide the family through the sort-out. There will be emotional moments as the family go through their most treasured items. Mother-in law Soo and sister-in-law Cass are on hand to help Craig make decisions, and we learn about a beautiful children's book Lois had written for her daughters. As part of the process, Craig confesses he's been taking up hobbies and buying random stuff online to fill the void left by the loss of his wife.
