A lightly crowded room may take a day, while a whole home with heavy buildup can take several days to a few weeks. The resident's pace, pests, mold and repairs all change the timeline. The team can estimate after seeing the home.

What is hoarding cleanup?

Hoarding cleanup is the safe clearing and cleaning of a home that has too many belongings to use as intended. A cleanup team opens exits, sorts items with the resident, hauls away what is released and cleans and disinfects. It is done at the resident's pace.

Are pests and mold part of hoarding cleanup?

Yes, cleanup covers the mess pests and mold leave behind, such as droppings, spoiled food and damaged materials. Pest control and mold remediation are separate trades, and you can ask the team when they are needed.

Can a team clean after the resident has moved or passed away?

Yes. A cleanup team can sort, clear and clean a home once the resident has moved, entered care or died. The family can set rules for photos, papers and keepsakes, and the work moves at the family's pace.

How much does hoarding cleanup cost?

The price depends on the size of the home, the level of buildup, hazards such as pests or mold, disposal, stairs and the pace chosen. The cleanup team sets a price after seeing the home. Be careful with any quote given sight unseen.
