Our Process for Tackling Hoarding Situations
Our approach to hoarding cleanouts makes the job as easy as 123. Here’s how we do it:
Consultation
The process starts with a free consultation to understand your unique situation. During this consultation, we’ll walk through to see the scope of the situation, and we’ll provide you with a price. The price you hear then is the price you’ll receive; we believe in transparent pricing, so there will be no hidden fees.
Customized Cleanup Plan
Subsequently, we’ll begin crafting a personalized plan for your situation.
Sorting and Organizing
In the sorting and organizing phase, we categorize items into keep, donate, recycle, and dispose groups. Each item is handled with care and respect. Every item will be run by you so we know what to do with it.
Disposal and Recycling
The final phase involves the safe and eco-friendly disposal of unwanted items. We prioritize donating usable items to local charities to benefit the community. For items that cannot be donated, we employ responsible recycling practices to minimize environmental impact. Our goal is to leave your space clean, organized, and clutter-free while being mindful of the environment.
Items We’ll Take During Your Hoarder Cleanup
We’ll take mostly all items to ensure your cleanup is thorough, including:
- Bulky Furniture: Including couches, armchairs, dining sets, mattresses, and dressers.
- Appliances: Such as refrigerators, ovens, microwaves, and washing machines.
- Everyday Household Items: Clothing, linens, kitchenware, and decor.
- Outdated Electronics: TVs, laptops, audio equipment, and gaming consoles.
- General Clutter: Boxes, bags of miscellaneous items you may have in your home or a storage unit, old papers, and storage containers that may be cluttering your basement.
Our professional service will clear your space of unwanted items, leaving you with a clean and organized home.
How To Keep Your Home Free From Clutter After Your Hoarder Cleanup
After your home is clutter-free, it’s important to maintain it so it stays that way. Here are some practical tips:
- Establish a Routine: Regularly schedule time to tidy up and declutter specific areas of your home. Consistent maintenance prevents clutter from building up again.

- Utilize Storage Solutions: Invest in storage bins, shelves, and organizers to keep items neatly stored and easily accessible.
- Create a Donation Box: Keep a box handy for items you no longer need. Regularly donate these items to prevent accumulation.
