How a Hoarder House Cleanout Works in South Oakland, Pittsburgh, PA

1. Assess volume and access

The team checks stairs, driveways, parking and how much there is to remove. This sets the number of people and trips.

2. Mark what stays

The family or owner decides what is kept, donated or discarded. Tags or lists keep everyone on the same page.

3. Clear in a safe order

Exits, stairs and the kitchen come first, then bedrooms, garage and storage. Hazards such as sharp objects are bagged separately.

4. Deep clean and deodorize

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