How Can You Help Someone with Hoarding Cleanup?

Bio-One of Orange has had the opportunity of helping families and people in the most challenging situations long enough to identify the most common and visible signs of hoarding in a house or property. These signs are visible, as certain symptoms and behaviors can be perceived by others. 

What Hoarding Looks Like

You can tell if a person is struggling with hoarding when:

• The house or property is filled with clutter and items that don’t necessarily have a reason or purpose of being. When confronting the individual about the possibility of discarding some items, they usually show signs of struggle and stress.

• An individual struggling with hoarding usually lives in a constant state of anxiety. They might feel overwhelmed by the amount of trash and clutter that is now affecting their daily activities, but they’re not likely to ask for help.

• Individuals struggling with hoarding tend to isolate themselves from family and friends. You might notice that most hoarders usually live alone. In some cases, they become animal hoarders, which is a more complicated issue as more lives are compromised.

Bio-One of Orange's technicians specialize in all kinds of hoarding. There are several types of hoarding, and we can classify this disorder into three main categories. Each one should be treated with the same care, compassion, and disposition to help everyone involved get things back on track.

What hoarders typically stock

Hoarding can be summarized as the excessive accumulation of possessions. However, a hoarder can accumulate a wide variety of things, which can be:

• Books, newspapers, magazines, and other reading material.
• Photographs, coins, and other collectibles.
• Clothing.
• Food and other household items.
• In more extreme cases, people hoard animals: cats, dogs, birds, rodents, and even reptiles.

Bio-One of Orange can help you clean and sanitize houses or properties affected by hoarding. These environments are dangerous, as the accumulation of clutter, trash, and even animal waste can turn into physical and biological risks from mold exposure, carbon monoxide, and other gases. 

Bio-One of Orange can help.

If you want to help someone with hoarding cleanup, don’t hesitate to call a professional to help you turn things around. Bio-One of Orange's specialists work closely with first responders and Public Safety Agencies to ensure the lives of everyone involved in a hoarding scenario are considered and respected!
