Hoarder House Cleanout Frequently Asked Questions in East Falls, Philadelphia, PA

Do cleanouts include cleaning, or only hauling?

That depends on the plan. Some jobs end broom-clean, and others include deep cleaning, disinfecting and odor treatment. Ask the team to say exactly what the job covers before work starts.

Can a hoarder house be cleaned out in one day?

A small or lightly packed home sometimes can. A full house with heavy buildup usually cannot be done safely in one day. A larger crew can shorten the job, and the team can say what is realistic.

Is hoarding a mental health condition?

Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition. A cleanout team does not diagnose anyone and treats every home and every person with respect.

Can paint, batteries and chemicals be thrown out?

Not in regular trash. Household chemicals, old paint and batteries usually have special disposal rules set by city and county offices. A cleanout team can separate them and explain where they go.

Is hoarding cleanout work safe for the crew?

It carries real hazards, such as unstable piles, sharp objects, droppings and mold. Crews use protective gear and follow worker safety rules, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, if blood or sharps are found.

Does the resident have to agree to the cleanout?

When the resident is living in the home, yes, and hoarding cleanups hold up best with their agreement. Clearing without it can cause distress and the home often fills again. After a move or a death, the owner or estate decides.
