To be sure, hoarding is a deeply emotional and challenging issue to deal with. It affects the lives of everyone involved.

Timing differs for each home depending on volume, size, hazards, and more. Many professional cleaners can do the job in about three to five days. However, depending on the hoarder, the entire process can be extended to several weeks, if not more. Again, this is a sensitive matter to the hoarder and their family. If a job is prolonged, it will only make matters worse to get upset. Usually, it is best to have a mental health professional available for consultation if necessary.
The National Study Group on Compulsive Disorganization has hoarding broken down into five basic levels. Each level has certain criteria to be met in order to be considered serious enough to be in that specific category. Here is a basic breakdown of those five levels.
You may think these are common signs, and at first, they are. However, the individual has a hard time throwing items away or maybe shops an unreasonable amount for things they don’t need. Maybe buying things just because they are on sale. Either way the lack of clutter might hide the condition, but it is still a disorder they must deal with.
Already at level 2, those who are hoarders may avoid inviting others into their home due to embarrassment. In addition, their surroundings may cause anxiety or depression and lead to being withdrawn from almost all social interaction.
Typically, a person with a level 3 hoarding problem has poor personal hygiene. They also often struggle with weight issues because of an unhealthy diet. Usually if someone brings up the state of their home or lifestyle, they get defensive and angry or seem indifferent to the situation.
It is not uncommon for people with a hoarding level 4 to have extremely bad personal hygiene and go weeks without bathing. Mental health goes downhill as they focus attention on delusional plans or on past memories that make them feel happy.
Often, those with a hoarding problem this severe do not live at their residence. A family member or friend will often allow them to stay with them. It has also been noted that hoarders within this level discharge waste into bottles or buckets that remain inside the home. Severe depression often accompanies this level as well.
It is difficult to put a price on a job that can vary greatly from person to person. Some companies can charge anywhere from $35 per employee hour to $80 per employee. Other companies will charge by square footage. This can range from $. 75 per square foot to $2 per square foot. Each job will need a different type of containers to remove the trash. The prices of the containers can range from about $175 to over $450, depending on the contents of the containers and the length of time they will be used.
