Let’s face it—dealing with hoarding isn’t just about cleaning up a mess. It’s about helping someone take the first step toward reclaiming their space and their life. Whether you’re a hoarder, a family member, or a property manager dealing with moderate to severe clutter, our cleanup services are here to offer support, structure, and results.
At Relief Remediation, we don’t just bring brooms and trash bags—we bring compassion, experience, and a plan. From extreme hoarding cases to minor clutter cleanup, we provide safe, respectful, and effective cleaning services that get the job done without judgment.


Not all hoarding situations look the same. Professionals often refer to a level of hoarding scale, ranging from Level 1 (mild clutter) to Level 5 (severe health and safety risks). As the level of hoarding increases, so does the potential for biohazards, animal waste, mold, and structural damage to the home. In extreme hoarding cases, you might have utilities shut off, exits blocked, and the risk of fire or eviction increases.
Knowing the level of hoarding can help family members, tenants, and support teams identify the urgency of cleanup and appropriate hoarding support. A Level 1 might just need light decluttering, but Levels 3-5 typically require a hoarding cleaning service with biohazard handling, mold remediation, and deep cleaning protocols.
Professional hoarding specialists not only clean but also approach the situation with compassion and confidentiality. If you or a loved one are struggling with hoarding, reaching out early can help prevent emotional and physical harm. Services like ours, as well as nonprofits and hoarding intervention resources, can provide support beyond just the clean-up—they offer a path to lasting change.
We take a comprehensive approach that ensures we take into account all details and that the process is as smooth as possible for all parties involved. Here’s what our hoarding cleanup process looks like:
We start by understanding the level of hoarding—whether it’s mild clutter or a full-blown, extreme hoarding situation. We assess the space, identify safety hazards like biohazards, rodents, or pest infestations, and build a custom plan that fits the unique situation.
We don’t come in and start tossing things out. We work with you or your loved one to sort possessions into categories: keep, donate, discard, or recycle. We help hoarders part with possessions by identifying what’s truly valuable versus what’s part of the emotional accumulation.
We remove items with sensitivity and discretion. Whether it’s old magazines, broken electronics, or expired food, we make sure to handle them responsibly. Our team operates discreetly, always respecting privacy and boundaries.
Once the clutter is gone, we perform deep cleaning and disinfecting—including deodorizing, sanitizing, and mold and mildew treatment. This step is essential for restoring your space to a safe condition and preventing future issues.
In more serious hoarding situations, we’re trained and equipped to remove biohazardous materials such as animal waste, soiled bedding, and decayed food. We ensure all biohazard waste gets disposed of in accordance with local and federal regulations.
Once the space is clean, we help restore it to a livable, welcoming environment. You’ll be amazed at the transformation—not just of the home, but of the emotional atmosphere too.

When we talk about hoarding, it’s essential to recognize that it’s not about laziness or being disorganized—it’s often rooted in deeper emotional or psychological patterns. Hoarding is a mental disorder recognized by medical professionals, and understanding the reasons for hoarding can make a big difference in how we approach cleanup and long-term recovery. For many people, hoarding begins as a coping mechanism. It might stem from trauma, such as the loss of a loved one, a sudden life change, or a history of deprivation. Holding onto items—even those with little monetary value—can provide a sense of control or security when everything else feels unstable. Others may struggle with decision-making or experience intense anxiety at the thought of letting go. They may assign sentimental value to everyday objects or fear they might need the item someday. Over time, these behaviors escalate, and clutter and hoarding start to interfere with daily life, health, and safety. Some individuals with hoarding disorder also live with conditions like OCD, anxiety disorders, or depression. That’s why effective hoarding help goes beyond cleaning services—it involves patience, compassion, and, in many cases, collaboration with mental health professionals.
A hoarder’s home may hide risks like tripping hazards, blocked exits, mold, animal waste, pest infestations, and exposure to biohazard materials.
Cleaning costs vary based on the level of hoarding, square footage, and types of materials involved. We provide detailed estimates after our initial assessment.
Yes. We often work with property managers and attorneys to assist with court-ordered clean-ups and eviction compliance.
We offer referrals to hoarding intervention specialists and can check in post-cleanup to ensure things stay on track.
Ready to start fresh? Whether you’re cleaning a hoarder’s house or just dealing with a bit too much clutter, Relief Remediation is here to help. We offer full-service cleaning services, from sorting and decluttering to cleaning and disinfecting, all done with heart.
