Getting Started

These questions help you understand who the CLEAR Kit is for and whether it makes sense for your situation right now.

Ask A Question

Is the CLEAR Kit right for me?

The CLEAR Kit is right for you if you want important information in one clear, reliable place that others can actually use when it matters.

It helps reduce confusion, prevent delays, and take pressure off loved ones by organizing estate, financial, medical, and personal information in a structured system. You do not need to be wealthy or facing a health crisis to benefit. Many people use the CLEAR Kit simply to feel organized, prepared, and confident that nothing important is scattered or forgotten.

Why is it called the CLEAR Kit?

Yes. CLEAR Kit is an acronym for Comprehensive Legacy and Estate Administration Resource Kit.

We chose the name intentionally.
Estate and end-of-life planning can be complex. The way your information is organized shouldn't be.

When is the right time to get a CLEAR Kit?

The right time is before someone else needs to rely on your information.

Starting early gives you control, flexibility, and peace of mind. You can work at your own pace, update things as life changes, and avoid rushed decisions during stressful moments. Even if not everything is finalized, having information captured in one place makes future updates faster and easier.

Do I need legal or financial knowledge to use the CLEAR Kit?

No. The CLEAR Kit is designed to make complex topics easier to understand and act on.

The benefit is clarity. Each section explains what information matters and why, so you can make informed decisions without needing professional training. This helps you move forward confidently and reduces the risk of missing important details simply because something felt unfamiliar or overwhelming.

What if I do not have everything figured out yet?

That is exactly when the CLEAR Kit is most useful.

The CLEAR Kit helps you start where you are and build over time. Capturing what you know now creates a foundation that makes future decisions easier and less stressful. Progress, not perfection, is the goal. Even partial information can save loved ones significant time and frustration later.

What support is available if I need help?

You are not expected to figure everything out on your own.

The CLEAR Kit includes guided sections written in plain language that explain what information matters and why. Each section is designed to help you move forward step by step, even if you have never handled estate or end of life planning before.

If you have questions, you can email support@buriedinwork.com or use the Contact Us form and a real person will respond. Support is available to help you understand how the system works, how to use the materials, and where to find additional resources.

For those who want more hands on assistance, a concierge version of the CLEAR Kit is available. This option provides personalized guidance to help you complete and organize your information correctly and confidently.

The goal of the CLEAR Kit is clarity, not perfection. Support is there to help you keep moving forward at your own pace.

Choosing the Right CLEAR Kit

These questions help you choose the right version and configuration before you order.

Ask A Question

Should I order a one adult or two adult CLEAR Kit?

Choose a one adult CLEAR Kit if you are organizing information for one person. This works well for single adults or for couples who prefer to keep their information separate.

Choose a two adult CLEAR Kit if you are planning together as a couple or household. This option keeps each person’s information clearly separated while allowing shared items to live in one coordinated system. The benefit is clarity. Each adult’s information is easy to find, update, and use without confusion or overlap.

What is the difference between “Printed + Digital” and “Print at Home + Digital”?

oth options include the same complete physical CLEAR Kit system and the same digital materials. The difference is how the worksheets are delivered.

Printed + Digital includes

All physical CLEAR Kit components, plus professionally printed worksheets that arrive ready to use. This option is designed for people who want everything prepared, organized, and immediately usable without additional printing.

Print at Home + Digital includes

All physical CLEAR Kit components, but the worksheets are provided digitally instead of pre-printed. You receive every worksheet on the included USB drive and can print them at home as needed.

What both options include

  • The full physical CLEAR Kit system
  • All binders, tabs, and instructional sections
  • Plain language explanations that guide you through what information matters and why
  • Tabs that reference and link back to the online CLEAR Kit resources
  • The complete digital worksheet library on a USB drive

What is not included in Print at Home Plus Digital

  • Pre-printed worksheets

If you choose Print at Home, you should plan to print approximately 500 two-sided pages if you print all CLEAR Kit sections. You will also need to hole punch these pages to insert them in to your binders. Many people print only the sections they need, when they need them.

Can I start with one adult and add another later?

Yes. The CLEAR Kit is designed to grow with you.

Starting with one adult allows you to begin organizing without overcommitting. If your situation changes, adding another adult later keeps the system consistent and familiar, rather than starting over with something new.

Is the CLEAR Kit available as a gift?

Yes. The CLEAR Kit is often given as a thoughtful, practical gift.

It is especially meaningful for major life moments such as marriage, retirement, caring for aging parents, or supporting someone through a transition. The benefit of giving the CLEAR Kit is that it offers long term value, reduces future stress, and shows care through preparation rather than urgency.

How the CLEAR Kit Works

These questions explain how the system is used and what completing it actually looks like in real life.

Contact Us

How does the CLEAR Kit work?

The CLEAR Kit works by bringing critical information, documents, and instructions into one clear, structured system that others can actually use.

Instead of information being scattered across folders, emails, and accounts, everything is organized by category with guidance that explains what matters and why. This creates clarity for you now and makes it far easier for someone else to step in later without guessing or searching.

How long does it take to complete the CLEAR Kit?

Most people can complete the core sections of the CLEAR Kit in under a week with a few hours a day of focused effort.

The longest part is usually gathering existing information, such as account details, documents, and contacts, rather than filling out the worksheets themselves. Simpler situations move faster, while more complex estates take longer.

To make the process easier, the CLEAR Kit includes a Getting Started booklet that helps you understand where to begin, what to prioritize, and how to work through the system without feeling overwhelmed.

The benefit is momentum. You can make meaningful progress quickly, then return to the kit over time as additional information is located or your situation changes.

Do I have to complete everything at once?

No. The CLEAR Kit is intentionally designed to be completed in stages.

You can start with the most important or easiest sections and build from there. Even partial completion creates value by capturing information that would otherwise be hard for others to locate. This reduces pressure and helps you move forward without feeling stuck.

What happens if my situation changes?

That’s expected, and the CLEAR Kit is built for it.

Life isn't a static experience. People get married or divorced. They move. Accounts open and close. Health changes. Documents get updated. When something changes, you update the relevant sections rather than starting over.

The value of the CLEAR Kit is that it gives you a stable structure that can adjust to your life's changes. Instead of scrambling to remember where things are or rebuilding from scratch, you update what already exists so the information stays current and usable for the people who may need it later.

Physical and Digital Components

These questions clarify what is included, how the materials are delivered, and why the system is designed this way.

Contact Us

Is there an online only version of the CLEAR Kit?

No. The CLEAR Kit is not offered as an online only product.

The benefit of a physical system is reliability. Important information can be accessed quickly without logins, passwords, internet access, or reliance on third party platforms. This is especially important during emergencies or high stress situations when digital access may be delayed or unavailable.

What is included in the physical CLEAR Kit?

The physical CLEAR Kit provides the structure that makes the system usable in real life.

It includes organized binders, clearly labeled tabs, and guided explanation sections that show what information matters and where it belongs. This creates a single, reliable reference that can be understood and used by someone else without prior knowledge or guesswork.

All physical components are designed to work together as a system, not just a collection of folders or forms.

For a complete, item-by-item breakdown of what is included, visit the What’s Included page.

What is included on the USB drive?

The USB drive includes the complete digital worksheet library.

The benefit is flexibility. You can complete worksheets electronically, save copies, or print pages as needed. This is especially helpful for people who prefer typing over handwriting or want a digital backup of their information.

Security and Privacy

These questions address how sensitive information is handled and how to think about access and storage.

Ask A Question

How is my information kept secure?

The CLEAR Kit is designed to keep sensitive information under your control.

Because it is a physical system with offline digital files, your information is not stored on servers, synced to the cloud, or exposed to data breaches, hacks, or platform changes. You decide where the kit is stored and who has access to it, which significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized exposure.

Who should have access to my CLEAR Kit?

You control access to the CLEAR Kit.

Most people choose to share access with two or three trusted individuals, such as a spouse, executor, or close family member. Limiting access helps protect privacy while ensuring the right person can step in when needed. The benefit is balance: information is available to the people who need it, without being widely shared.

Where should I store my CLEAR Kit once it is completed?

The CLEAR Kit should be stored in a secure but accessible location.

Many people keep it in a fire resistant or water resistant storage case or another safe, known place in the home. The most important benefit is discoverability. Trusted individuals should know where the kit is stored and how to access it, so information can be found quickly when time and clarity matter most.

What the CLEAR Kit Is and Isn't

These questions help set clear boundaries around what the CLEAR Kit does and does not do.

Ask A Question

Is the CLEAR Kit a legal document?

No. The CLEAR Kit is not a legal document.

The benefit of the CLEAR Kit is organization and clarity. It helps you gather, explain, and store important information so others can act efficiently and correctly. Legal documents such as wills, trusts, and powers of attorney still serve their own role and should be prepared separately.

Does the CLEAR Kit replace a will or trust?

No. The CLEAR Kit does not replace a will, trust, or other estate planning documents.

Instead, it supports them. By clearly identifying where documents are located, what they do, and who to contact, the CLEAR Kit helps ensure your legal plan can be carried out without delays, confusion, or missed steps.

Can the CLEAR Kit be used in Canada or outside the United States?

es. The CLEAR Kit can be used by individuals and families in Canada and other countries for estate and end of life organization.

The worksheets are designed to gather and organize personal, financial, and end of life information in one clear system, which is useful regardless of location.

Some of the instructional guidance and links that accompany the CLEAR Kit reference U.S. based laws, processes, and terminology. As a result, the system is not fully jurisdiction-specific outside the United States.

If your primary goal is organization, clarity, and making information easy for family members or executors to locate, the CLEAR Kit works very well. If you are looking for step-by-step guidance tied directly to Canadian or other non U.S. legal procedures, it may not be a complete fit on its own.

How does the CLEAR Kit work with my existing estate plan?

The CLEAR Kit acts as a practical companion to your estate plan.

It brings together the details, instructions, and context that legal documents often assume but do not explain. This helps executors, agents, and family members understand what needs to happen and where to find what they need, reducing friction and stress during already difficult moments.

Order Customization & Shipping

These questions explain how orders are prepared, customized, and delivered.

Contact Us

Is the CLEAR Kit customized for each order?

Yes. CLEAR Kits are prepared intentionally, not mass shipped from a warehouse.

Each kit is assembled to ensure accuracy, consistency, and quality across the physical materials. This approach helps ensure every kit functions as a complete, reliable system rather than a collection of parts.

Why are CLEAR Kits produced in scheduled batches?

CLEAR Kits are produced in scheduled batches to maintain quality and consistency.

Batch production allows materials to be assembled correctly, reviewed, and packaged together as a complete system. The benefit is reliability. Nothing is rushed, substituted, or incomplete, and every kit meets the same standard.

Can I change my order after placing it?

In many cases, yes, as long as production for your batch has not begun.

If you need to make a change, contacting support as soon as possible gives you the best chance of updating your order without delay.

What should I expect after placing an order?

After placing your order, you will receive confirmation and updates as your CLEAR Kit moves through production and shipping.

The benefit of this approach is predictability. You know what to expect, when to expect it, and that your kit is being prepared carefully rather than rushed out the door.

Completion, Use, & Support

These questions explain what happens after you start, how others use the CLEAR Kit later, and what support is available along the way.

Contact Us

What support is available if I need help?

You are not expected to figure everything out on your own.

The CLEAR Kit includes guided sections written in plain language to help you move forward confidently. If questions come up, you can email support@buriedinwork.com or use the Contact Us form and a real person will respond.

The benefit is reassurance. Help is available when you need it.

What is the concierge version of the CLEAR Kit?

The concierge version is for people who want personalized guidance while completing their CLEAR Kit.

This option provides one on one support to help you organize information correctly, understand what belongs where, and move forward with confidence. It is especially helpful if your situation feels complex or time sensitive.

What kind of help does the concierge service provide?

Concierge support focuses on guidance, clarity, and organization.

It helps you work through sections efficiently, identify gaps, and ensure your information is clearly documented and usable. The benefit is peace of mind. You know the system is being completed thoughtfully and accurately.

Who is the CLEAR Kit for after I complete it?

After completion, the CLEAR Kit is designed for the people who may need to step in for you.

This often includes a spouse, executor, agent under a power of attorney, or trusted family member. The CLEAR Kit helps them understand what needs to happen, where information is located, and who to contact, without guesswork or unnecessary stress.

How does my family or executor use the CLEAR Kit later?

The CLEAR Kit is organized so someone else can follow it logically, even during emotional or high pressure situations.

Clear sections, explanations, and instructions help guide next steps and prevent delays. The benefit is usability. Information is not just stored, it is understandable and actionable.

What happens to the CLEAR Kit after a death or serious illness?

After a death or serious illness, the CLEAR Kit becomes a central reference point.

It helps survivors and executors locate documents, notify institutions, and understand responsibilities in an organized way. This reduces confusion, missed steps, and unnecessary back and forth during an already difficult time.

CLEAR Kits For Professionals, Partners, & Organizations

These questions are for professionals, businesses, and organizations interested in using or recommending the CLEAR Kit.

Ask A Question

Can professionals or businesses use the CLEAR Kit with clients?

Yes. The CLEAR Kit is used by professionals and organizations as a practical tool to help clients organize and understand important estate and end of life information.

The benefit is consistency. The CLEAR Kit provides a structured, plain language system that clients can use independently while professionals focus on their specific role. It helps reduce confusion, improve preparedness, and support clearer conversations without replacing professional services.

Do you offer affiliate or referral partnerships?

Yes. Buried in Work offers affiliate and partnership opportunities for professionals, wholesale, retail partners, and content creators who want to recommend the CLEAR Kit.

These collaborative programs are designed to be straightforward and ethical. They allow partners to share the CLEAR Kit as a resource without managing inventory or providing technical support.

This option is commonly used by employers, nonprofits, educational programs, and professional groups who want to provide the CLEAR Kit as a benefit or resource. Bulk orders help streamline distribution while ensuring each recipient receives the same complete system.

Can the CLEAR Kit be customized for organizations or programs?

In some cases, yes.

Customization options may be available depending on order size and use case. This can include branded materials, inserts, or program specific guidance. Customization is evaluated carefully to ensure the integrity and clarity of the CLEAR Kit system is maintained.
