About 90% of homes in Detroit were built before 1980, and older wiring, narrow halls and small closets make a crowded house more of a fire risk. Only about 15% of people in Detroit are sixty-five or older, but hoarding affects households of every age, and cleanup works the same way.
What hoarding cleanup covers:
- Removal of waste that may carry germs, handled as regulated medical waste when needed
- Sorting belongings with the resident into keep, donate or recycle, and remove
- Cleaning around mold, droppings and pest damage, and noting when other trades are needed
- Donation and recycling runs so usable items go on to be used again

Questions Residents and Relatives in Lafayette Park, Detroit, MI Ask About Hoarding Cleanup
Can a team clean after the resident has moved or passed away?
Yes. A cleanup team can sort, clear and clean a home once the resident has moved, entered care or died. The family can set rules for photos, papers and keepsakes, and the work moves at the family's pace.
Are pests and mold part of hoarding cleanup?
Yes, cleanup covers the mess pests and mold leave behind, such as droppings, spoiled food and damaged materials. Pest control and mold remediation are separate trades, and you can ask the team when they are needed.
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.
Is hoarding cleanup different from a regular house cleaning?
Yes. A regular cleaning assumes surfaces are reachable and the items stay. Hoarding cleanup includes sorting, hauling, hazard checks, protective gear and disposal, and then a deeper clean of kitchens, bathrooms and floors.
Will the resident get to keep their belongings?
Yes. The resident decides what stays, what is donated and what is removed. Valuables, documents, photos and medicine are set aside first, and nothing leaves the home without agreement.
How do you keep a home from filling up again after cleanup?
Small habits, such as one clear surface a week, help. Ongoing support from a doctor, counselor or local group can make progress last. The team can talk through simple upkeep ideas at the end of the job.
