What I pack in my notary bag
Technology

Plug-In Mouse: For ease of use during notarizations.

Writing Instruments
Pens: Preferably those that do not run, such as ballpoint pens, for loan signings and other important documents.
Communication Tools
Headphones: For clear audio during remote notarizations or in noisy environments.
Notary Specific Supplies
Notary Stamp: A crucial tool for any notarization, be it remote or in-person.

Miscellaneous

Sticky Notes/Post-it Notes: For jotting down reminders, business ideas, or marking pages for signatures.

Personal Comfort
Snacks: Optional, for those long days on the road (note: Katie prefers not to mix snacks with work materials).
Water Bottle: Advised to stay hydrated, though caution is needed around electronic devices.
Professional Bag
Durable Bag: To carry all the above, with preferences for styles like Kate Spade or options that offer added security like lockable bags.

I had no idea that this kind of service existed, but I am so glad I did...Katie made the whole process very easy. I really like the fact that she can provide virtual services so I don't have to drive across town or coordinate schedules.

We helped a family member purchase a home out of state. This was a super stressful process, as all of us were in another state than the house that was being purchased. Katie helped out in a pinch with her virtual notarization services. Most importantly, using her virtual service meant not having to take time off work to go to a local notary and wait around. She made the process easy and had everything prepped. Highly recommend!
