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.
Speak calmly, start with safety and ask what they want to keep. Avoid blame and surprises, and agree on a small first step. Many people feel more at ease once they know who will be in the home and what will happen.
The main risks are fire, falls, pests, mold and trouble getting help. Blocked exits slow escape and slow firefighters and paramedics. A cleanup lowers these risks in order, starting with exits and fire hazards.
Residents, relatives and landlords are all welcome to call.
