Bundle Alterations in Antelope

All six pieces qualify for the bundle rate as long as the scope on each piece is assessable during the session and falls within the standard alteration scope the bench handles — and yes, the discount applies across mixed work types, not only to a set of matching pieces. School-uniform trouser hems, a dress take-in, a jacket alteration, and shirt adjustments are all within the standard scope and can coexist in the same bundle quote. The discount structure is 10–20% off the combined individual-item rates, applied to the full written quote before work begins. The two school-uniform trousers hem as a pair and price as two items in the bundle; the dress, jacket, and shirts each price as individual scope items. Where any of the six has a scope that is harder to assess on a walk-in — for example, if the jacket needs a chest rebuild rather than a simple take-in — that piece gets a separate assessment and may sit outside the bundle quote if the scope is complex, but the other five still run at the bundle rate. The walk-in session will tell you which pieces are bundle-rate and which need separate treatment before any commitment.

An inherited-closet sort is exactly the bundle intake format the bench does well, and the honest sorting conversation is built into the workflow rather than assumed to happen before the client arrives. Bring the full set — or a representative subset of the most likely-to-be-altered pieces if the volume is very large — and the bench walks through each piece in the fitting session: condition assessment, measurement gap, alteration scope, and the honest recommendation on whether the alteration investment makes sense or whether the piece is better donated, repurposed, or retired. For a garment where the fabric condition is strong and the measurement gap is within a standard scope, the bundle rate applies. For a piece where the alteration would cost more than the garment’s practical value, or where the scope reveals a structural problem the alteration would not fix, the recommendation is to let it go — and that recommendation at intake is not affected by whether you have ten other pieces on the table. The bundle discount structure helps the math on the pieces that do warrant alteration; the honest no on the ones that do not is not a sales conversation. A practical approach for a large inherited closet is to book a 90-minute fitting session, bring everything, and use the session to produce a written action list: alter-at-bundle-rate, repair-separate-scope, and clear.

A post-weight-change intake where the work type is consistent across pieces is one of the cleaner bundle patterns the bench handles, because the measurement gap is the same across all pieces and the pinning session can run the full set efficiently once the wearer’s new measurements are established. The bundle rate applies regardless of whether the work type is identical or varied — the discount structure is based on the combined scope rather than the diversity of the work. For a set of eight pieces with consistent waist suppression and some seat or shoulder adjustment, the fitting session establishes the new measurement set once, applies it across all pieces with any piece-specific variations noted, and produces a single quote covering the full bundle scope. The practical efficiency is meaningful for this pattern: a post-weight-change intake that processes eight pieces in a single session and a single pickup trip is a substantially different experience from eight individual queue entries over two months. The turnaround for a bundle of this size runs 5–7 business days rather than the standard 3–5, because the queue manages the volume as a batch rather than individual-piece timing.

A leather jacket and standard alteration garments can be brought to the same intake session, but the leather piece runs as a separate scope item with its own timeline rather than as part of the bundle rate for the standard garments. The bundle discount applies to the standard alteration pieces in the session; the leather jacket runs at the standard specialty-material rate (no bundle discount, separate turnaround of eight to eleven business days versus the standard three-to-five for the textile pieces). The practical value of bringing both to the same session is that the leather assessment happens at the same time as the standard pinning, so the household leaves with a single written quote covering both the bundle scope and the leather scope together, and a single pickup plan that sequences the two completion dates. We will text you when the standard pieces are ready (earlier) and when the leather piece is ready (later), and you can pick up in one or two trips depending on your timeline. There is no fee for splitting the pickup across two visits — some clients prefer to pick up the standard pieces first and return for the leather piece once it is finished.

Our bundle pricing starts at 3 garments. Bring 3–5 items for 10% off, 6–10 items for 15% off, and 11+ items for 20% off the total alteration cost. The discount applies to all standard alterations in the bundle.

Absolutely — you can mix and match any alteration types in one bundle. Hem a pair of trousers, take in a dress, shorten jacket sleeves, and taper jeans — all in one order. Every garment counts toward your bundle discount.

Most bundle orders are completed within 7–10 business days, depending on the number of garments and complexity. We coordinate all items to be ready together for a single convenient pickup. Rush processing is available for an additional fee.

It's one of the most popular use cases. Many Sacramento clients bring in 5–10 garments twice a year for seasonal refreshes — transitioning from summer to winter or updating pieces after weight changes. At 15–20% off, it's significantly cheaper than buying new.
