Hoarding occurs when a homeowner collects an excessive number of items far past what is considered normal for the space. Often it looks like the inside of the home is filled with trash. Because of this, hoarding is not a safe situation for anyone to be in.

Soil-Away Can Help

Fortunately, Soil-Away provides restoration services to clean up hoarding situations and return the home to a livable condition. Whether you have inherited a hoarder property, or you are concerned about the safety of a loved one, we can help. Here are some of the services we provide in hoarding situations.

Trash Removal

Most hoarders have an excessive amount of trash left in the house. While most people would throw out a pizza box after dinner, a hoarder might keep the box and end up with hundreds in their house. As a result, at Soil-Away, we will go through and remove all the trash from the home.

Furniture Removal

In addition to the trash, we will also remove and dispose of the furniture. Because it may be out of reach, in many hoarding situations the furniture has not been used in years because it’s been buried under trash. In most cases, the furniture will not be salvageable and will also need to be disposed of.

Biohazard Disposal

Hoarding properties are a breeding ground for biohazardous waste. Whether this is waste from mice, waste from pets, or human waste, Soil-Away will address the biohazards, dispose of them, and sanitize the property.

Mold Remediation

Hoarding properties can also have a lot of mold. Leaks go unnoticed while damp trash piles up. This also creates an extremely toxic and unhealthy living environment. Because of this, before the house can be occupied again, it must be remediated for mold.

General Sanitization and Deodorization

Hoarding situations require a level of discretion, professionalism, and expertise to overcome the challenges. Because of this, the restoration experts at Soil-Away will complete a full sanitization and deodorization of the house before it is occupied again. Soil-Away will also clean the air ducts so that future occupants will not have contaminated air running through their house.
