Hoarding Cleanup  Marysville

Hoarding occurs when there is excessive clutter impairing basic living activities such as mobility, housekeeping, showering or sleeping.



Hoarding causes fire hazards, disease from unsanitary conditions, vermin and insect infestations, and also the risk of injury from tripping over possessions. The more the home accumulates, the more hazardous it becomes. Along with the secrecy, shame, and guilt associated with hoarding, people with hoarding behavior and their families tend to have few visitors and typically hide the condition from relatives and friends. If hoarding is not properly managed, it can lead to very dire consequences.

Cleaning the premises and clutter removal can be challenging work because people with hoarding behavior often find it difficult to part with their possessions. When family members attempt to “change” the behavior of a hoarder, it can result in friction that may last for years to come.

Hoarded living spaces can also be a hazardous undertaking because of the potential for mold and decay that may be lurking under the layers of stuff, creating multiple types of health conditions that can result from not wearing personal protection gear in a hoarded environment.
