tidiers
Those who straighten
Tidiers is the plural of tidier—one who tidies or makes things orderly.
The word appears most often in discussions of organizing methods or household roles: Marie Kondo turned millions into enthusiastic tidiers.
A tidier can also be a small container or device for keeping items organized: a desk tidier, a cable tidier.
