Cleaning a hoarder's house yourself

Cleaning up a hoarder home yourself is possible, but it can be extremely challenging. This requires a structured approach.

What should you do during a hoarder cleanse?

Make a plan: make sure in advance that all spaces and tasks are divided so that you can get to work carefully.
Use protective equipment: consider mouth guards, gloves and sturdy shoes so that you are well protected.
Sort stuff: look carefully to see which items are still usable or valuable and which belong to trash.
Ask for help: try to clean a hoarder’s house with several people. This goes faster and is less strenuous. Cleaning up a hoarder home individually is virtually impossible.
Consider the resident: Cleaning out a hoarder’s home can be very hard on the resident. Guide the person through the process and treat the person with respect.

What not to do at a hoarder cleanup?

Throwing everything away at once: This can seem very heavy on a hoarder. Always discuss what can go away and work in a structured way.
Working without equipment: this puts you at risk of exposure to harmful substances.
Forced cleaning: this can feel intense to the hoarder and exacerbate the problem.
Just transport waste: waste and harmful substances must be disposed of separately.
