Hoarder House Cleaning: Your Questions, Answered for Inwood, New York, NY
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.
How long does hoarding cleanup take?
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.
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.
What should you not say to a hoarder?
Avoid calling their belongings trash, saying the home is disgusting or telling them to just throw things out. Never move items without asking. Ask what matters most to them, listen, and offer to help at their pace.
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.

Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition in its own right. Only a doctor or mental health professional can say what applies to a particular person. A cleanup team does not diagnose, and it treats every resident with respect.
