About 52% of households in Minneapolis rent, so landlords and property managers often ask for a hoarding cleanout before a new tenant moves in.

A typical hoarder house cleanout job includes:
- Hauling away junk, furniture, boxes and household goods released by the owner or family
- Plain-language notes on damage found, useful for repairs, sales and insurance
- Donation and recycling runs so usable items go on to be used again
- Odor removal and treatment of affected areas using EPA-registered products
- Broom-clean or deep-cleaned finish, so the property is ready to be listed, rented or repaired

Questions Families in Steven's Square / Loring Heights, Minneapolis, MN Ask About Clearing a Hoarder House
How do you clean out a hoarder's house?
Plan, sort, remove and clean, in that order. Gather valuables and papers first, clear exits and hazards, then empty room by room into keep, donate, recycle and discard groups. You can get a cleanout team for the heavy lifting and a deep clean to finish.
How is a hoarder cleanout different from regular junk removal?
Regular junk removal assumes you point at items and they go. A hoarding cleanout includes sorting for valuables, hazard checks, protective gear, disposal of spoiled or contaminated items and cleaning afterward. It takes more care and more time.
Do I need to be there during the cleanout?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the owner or a family member does not have to stay on site. Clear instructions about what to keep and a way to reach someone help the job go smoothly.
Do cleanouts include cleaning, or only hauling?
That depends on the plan. Some jobs end broom-clean, and others include deep cleaning, disinfecting and odor treatment. Ask the team to say exactly what the job covers before work starts.
What if pests or mold are found during the cleanout?
The crew works with added protection and removes affected materials. Pest control and mold remediation are separate trades, and the team can say when they are needed so you can plan.
Can the team work for an executor, landlord or real estate agent?
Yes. Cleanouts are often arranged by executors, landlords, property managers and agents. The team follows their access instructions and can note the condition of the property for their records.
