Surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected, and odor is treated at the source. The home is walked once the job is done.

Questions Families in Danville, CA Ask About Clearing a Hoarder House
Do I need to be there during the cleanout?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the owner or a family member does not have to stay on site. Clear instructions about what to keep and a way to reach someone help the job go smoothly.
What should I say to a relative about a cleanout?
Stay calm and kind. Ask what they most want to keep, avoid words like trash or filth and never remove things without asking. A cleanup team can explain the plan so the person knows what to expect.
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.
Will insurance pay for a hoarding clean out?
Usually not, because many policies exclude long-term buildup. A policy may help with a specific event such as a fire, a leak or a sewage backup. Read the policy, call the insurer before work begins, take photos and keep receipts.
Will valuables and important papers be kept?
Yes. Crews look through piles for cash, jewelry, photos, documents and keepsakes, and set them aside for the owner or family. Anyone can name items that must not be hauled before work starts.
How long does a hoarding cleanout take?
A small area may take a day, while a full house with heavy buildup often takes several days or longer. Access, volume, hazards and the level of cleaning all change the timeline. The team can estimate after a walk-through.
