Clear answers
Hoarding Cleanup questions
Does everything have to be thrown away?
No. The authorized client and contractor should agree on sorting rules and exceptions before work.
Is hoarding cleanup the same as junk removal?
Not always. Biohazards, pests, structural issues, or sensitive decision-making can require different planning and controls.
Can cleanup happen in phases?
Often, but the contractor must decide whether access and hazards allow a phased plan.
Does AABiohazard provide counseling?
No. We provide contractor search assistance. Mental-health or social-service support should come from an appropriate qualified provider.
