Hoarding cleanouts are often thought of as something that only happens on television. In reality, they can be extremely dangerous and should always be carried out by professionals like JunkDoctors. Here's why:
1. There is a risk of injury. Hoarding cleanouts involve going into homes that are cluttered and full of items that have been accumulated over time. This can create trip hazards and other dangers that lead to injuries.
2. There is a risk of exposure to hazardous materials. When hoarders accumulate items, they often do not think about what those items may contain. As a result, hoarders' homes can contain hazardous materials like mold, asbestos, and lead paint. These materials can cause serious health problems if they are inhaled or ingested.
3. There is a risk of emotional distress. For many hoarders, their possessions represent a part of their identity and self-worth. Losing those possessions can be devastating and cause immense emotional distress.
4. There is a risk of fires. Hoarders' homes are often filled with flammable materials like newspapers and books. If there is a fire in the home, it can quickly spread and become out of control due to all of the combustible materials present.
5. There is a risk of eviction. In some cases, hoarders' behavior gets so out of control that they are evicted from their homes by their landlords or local authorities. This can leave them homeless and without any support network to help them get back on their feet again

Those who do the hoarding cleaning must be prepared for animal (rats, mice, vermin, etc.) droppings and the animals still alive running through the items and trash. The droppings contain all types of diseases, and unless you have your hepatitis (A, B, and C) shots, tetanus shots, RBI shots, and other array of shots dealing with harmful and deadly diseases, you might be taking a chance when cleaning up after a hoarding.
Please also be careful for sharp objects (knives, broken glass, and sharp objects of any kind) that will cut you. Hypodermic needles can also be a concern.
Please call us at 973-336-8083 for assistance in hoarding clean up.
JunkDoctors personnel are trained to put aside all valuables and any items that may have a monetary value. These items are shown to the responsible party and boxed up for further evaluation by the responsible party.
Timing differs for each home depending on volume, size, hazards, and more. Our professional cleanout experts can clean out a home in 3-5 days. Depending on the person who is hoarding, the process can easily be extended for several weeks.
The vast majority of those who contact us are in the midst of attempting to declutter/liquidate an estate after the death of a family member or in cases where they are legally appointed guardians or conservators.
We are also contacted by seniors themselves—or their legal representatives—needing assistance with downsizing the estate or with packing and making all needed arrangements to ensure a safe, smooth transition to an alternative residential environment.
There are two ways that hoarding clean out service is priced (volume vs hourly). The price difference depends whether or not the person that collected the items would be present during the clean out. Pricing for hoarding cleanouts include bagging, dismantling, loading, hauling, disposal or recycling fees.
