We Understand — This Isn’t Just About Junk
Hoarding cleanup is different from a regular junk removal job, and we treat it that way. The items in a hoarded home aren’t just “stuff” — they carry meaning, memories, and often anxiety for the person who lives there. Whether you’re the homeowner taking the first step, a family member helping a loved one, or a property manager dealing with a tenant situation, we bring the same approach every time: patience, respect, and zero judgment.
We’ve been doing this for over 30 years. Our crew has worked with families, social workers, therapists, and property managers on hoarding cleanups of every size. From a single room that’s gotten out of hand to a full home where you can barely open the front door — we’ve seen it, and we know how to help.
This isn’t a job we rush through. We work at a pace that makes sense for you and the situation. If you need to go through items one by one, we’ll do that. If you want us to handle everything while you step away, we can do that too. Your comfort and your privacy come first.
Our Hoarding Cleanup Process
Step 1: Private Consultation
We start with a phone call or in-person visit — your choice. We listen to your situation, answer your questions, and help you understand what the process will look like. No pressure. No obligation.
Step 2: Plan Together
We create a plan that works for you. Which rooms first? What items need special care? Are there things you want to keep, donate, or have us sort? We figure this out before we start loading anything.
Step 3: Sort and Remove
Our crew works through the space systematically. We sort items into keep, donate, recycle, and dispose categories. Important documents, photos, and valuables are set aside for your review.
Step 4: Deep Clean
Once the items are out, we leave the space clean and usable. Depending on the situation, this may include sweeping, wiping surfaces, and removing debris from floors and counters.
Taking the first step is the hardest part. Call (253) 722-4285 for a private, no-pressure conversation about your situation. Everything is confidential.
What Makes Our Approach Different
No judgment, ever. Our crew treats every homeowner and family member with dignity. We don’t comment on conditions. We don’t make faces. We’ve seen every situation you can imagine, and our only focus is helping you move forward.
Your pace, not ours. Some cleanups happen in a day. Some happen over multiple visits spread across weeks. We go at whatever speed keeps you comfortable. If you need a break, we take a break.
Privacy guaranteed. Our truck is unmarked for hoarding jobs. We don’t advertise what we’re doing at your home. Your neighbors won’t know unless you tell them. Your situation stays between us.
We save what matters. Photos, documents, jewelry, family heirlooms — we set aside anything that looks personal or valuable for your review before it goes anywhere. We’d rather over-save than miss something important.
Donation and recycling. Items in good condition get donated to local charities. We sort and recycle what we can. You’re not just clearing your home — you’re helping other people in the process. Learn more about our eco-friendly approach.
Working With Family Members
Many of our hoarding cleanup calls come from adult children, siblings, or other family members who are helping a loved one. This can be an emotional and complicated process, and we get that.
Here’s how we help:
- We can coordinate directly with the homeowner or with a family member acting on their behalf
- If the homeowner wants to be present during the cleanup, we welcome that and work at their comfort level
- If the homeowner prefers not to be there, we follow the plan you’ve set and document what we find
- We work well with therapists, social workers, and case managers who may be involved in the process
- For estate situations where the homeowner has passed, we handle everything with respect and care

Hoarding Cleanup Pricing
Every hoarding situation is different, so we don’t publish fixed prices for this service. The cost depends on the volume of material, the number of rooms, the condition of the space, and how many visits are needed. Here’s what we can tell you:
- We provide a free, confidential estimate before any work begins
- Pricing is based on truck volume — the same transparent approach we use for all our jobs
- Multi-day cleanups are billed per load, not per hour, so you know what each visit costs
- We’ll work within your budget and can prioritize rooms or areas if needed
- No surprise fees. The price we quote is the price you pay

Frequently Asked Questions — Hoarding Cleanup
How long does a hoarding cleanup take?
It depends on the size of the home and the volume of items. A single room might take a few hours. A full home can take 1-3 days of active work. For situations where we’re working at the homeowner’s pace with breaks and sorting, it might span multiple visits over a week or more. We don’t rush.
Will your crew judge me or my family member?
No. Our team has done hundreds of hoarding cleanups. They’ve seen everything, and they approach every single job with respect and compassion. There’s no judgment — just help.
What if we find important documents or valuables during the cleanup?
We set aside anything that looks personal, valuable, or potentially important — photos, documents, jewelry, collectibles. You review these items and decide what to keep. We err on the side of saving things rather than tossing them.
Can you work with my therapist or social worker?
Absolutely. We’re happy to coordinate with mental health professionals, social workers, case managers, or anyone else involved in the process. We can adjust our pace and approach based on their guidance.
Is the cleanup confidential?
Completely. We use an unmarked truck for hoarding cleanups. We don’t discuss your situation with anyone. Your privacy is a priority.
What if the homeowner isn’t ready for a full cleanout?
That’s okay. We can start with one room. Or one corner of one room. Whatever feels manageable. Progress at any pace is still progress. We’ll come back when you’re ready for more.
Do you handle biohazard situations?
For homes with significant biohazard conditions (animal waste, mold, bodily fluids), we can often help, but the scope depends on the specific situation. Call us and describe what you’re dealing with — we’ll tell you honestly whether we can handle it or if you need a specialized biohazard crew first.
How do I get started?
Just call. The first step is a conversation — no obligation, no pressure. Tell us about the situation and we’ll talk through what help looks like. Call (253) 722-4285 or fill out our contact form.
