Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Nob Hill, San Francisco, CA

How do you clean a hoarder's house?

Start with safety, then sort, remove and clean in that order. Exits and fire hazards come first, then spoiled food and unsafe items, then deep cleaning of kitchens and bathrooms. The resident decides what stays, and a cleanup team can handle the heavy parts.

What happens to the items that are removed?

Usable items go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, damaged or unsafe items are disposed of correctly, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.

Can you hire someone to clean a hoarder house?

Yes. Hoarding cleanup services and hoarder cleaning companies do this work every day. The team brings protective gear, hauling and disinfecting, and works with the resident or the family. Residents, relatives, landlords and property managers can all make the call.

Does hoarding qualify as a disability?

Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition. Whether it counts as a disability for housing or work depends on the situation and the law. A tenant rights group, a housing agency or an attorney can answer for a specific case.

What should you not say to a hoarder?

Avoid calling their belongings trash, saying the home is disgusting or telling them to just throw things out. Never move items without asking. Ask what matters most to them, listen, and offer to help at their pace.

What mental illness do most hoarders have?

Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition in its own right. Only a doctor or mental health professional can say what applies to a particular person. A cleanup team does not diagnose, and it treats every resident with respect.
