Hoarding Cleanup
When Hoarding Cleanup Services Become Essential
Hoarding cleanup becomes necessary when extreme clutter, biohazard risks, or unsafe living conditions make a property unmanageable. Whether dealing with compulsive hoarding disorder (CHD), an estate cleanout, or a property abandoned by a tenant, professional intervention ensures a safe and efficient resolution.
Many people don’t intend to become hoarders, but hoarding is more than just clutter—it requires serious attention. Over time, unchecked accumulation of possessions, garbage, or hazardous materials can create dangerous conditions. Situations like downsizing a home, physical or mental health challenges, or unexpected life events can contribute to extreme clutter and distress.
If you're facing severe hoarding conditions, it’s crucial to act quickly. Excessive accumulation poses health hazards, increases fire risks, and attracts pests, mold, and biohazardous waste. Attempting to clean a hoarded property without proper protective equipment and expertise can be overwhelming and unsafe.
At Mayken™ Hazmat Solutions, our certified hoarding remediation specialists use professional-grade cleaning techniques, biohazard handling protocols, and industry-approved protective gear to restore properties to a safe, livable state. We approach each case with efficiency, professionalism, and discretion—without judgment.

Hazards of Extreme & Hoarder Cleaning
Many people mistakenly believe that hoarding cleanup is just junk removal or deep cleaning. In reality, extreme hoarding remediation requires much more than simply hauling away clutter. The process involves navigating dangerous biohazards, structural risks, and contamination threats that can compromise health and safety.
During hoarding and extreme clutter removal, individuals may be exposed to hazardous materials, including:
Restoring Your Property & Peace of Mind
The hidden dangers of hoarding cleanup require specialized biohazard handling and professional hoarding remediation services. Unlike junk removal or standard commercial cleaning, restoring a hoarded property to a safe and livable condition involves a multi-stage decontamination process.
Steps to a Safe & Fresh Start
- Debris & junk removal – Clearing excessive clutter and hazardous waste.
- Biohazard removal & safe disposal – Eliminating contaminated materials.
- Salvaging valuable & sentimental items – Helping you keep what matters.
- Identifying structural damage – Assessing safety risks.
- Deep cleaning, sanitizing & disinfecting – Ensuring all surfaces are restored.
- Odor removal & air purification – Eliminating lingering smells.
Why Professional Hoarding Cleaning Is Critical
Attempting a hoarding cleanout without professional assistance can be overwhelming, time-consuming, and hazardous. Using trained specialists saves both time and money while preventing exposure to serious health risks.
At Mayken™ Hazmat Solutions, our biohazard cleanup experts wear full protective gear and respirators to prevent contamination and exposure to mold, bacteria, and airborne toxins. Without proper protective equipment, individuals handling gross filth and hoarded materials unknowingly expose themselves to long-term health risks.
Compassionate Support Throughout the Process
Sorting through excessive clutter can be an emotionally draining experience. Deciding what to keep and what to discard is often overwhelming. As part of our hoarding remediation services, we can include a professional organizer to support you through the decluttering process. This helps reduce anxiety, keep you on track, and ensure a smoother transition to a healthier, more organized living space.
At the end of the process, our priority is not just restoring your property—but improving your quality of life.

- Fire hazard
Professional biohazard cleaning companies like Mayken™ will benefit the job in these ways:

- Proper gear and equipment to handle the removal/cleanup of blood, bodily fluids, feces, urine, excessive trash, rotting food, mold, mildew, odor, animal waste, etc.

- Equipment and products for odor removal
- Professional organizing skills
- Compassion and patience throughout the entire process
The team at Mayken™ understands that a hoarder’s worst fear is what will happen to their stuff. We have professional organizers that work closely with the client to help them sort through the items to determine what can be kept and what must go (based on condition and safety). Depending on the circumstances, all salvageable items will either be packed up for storage or put away in an organized manner.
The amount of time to clean up a hoarding situation depends on the size of the property, the amount of debris on the premises, and if there is any structural damage. Our technicians can do an on site assessment to give you a quote. In extreme hoarding situations, where we can’t see the extent of the damage up front, we can provide daily quotes as we progress through the job.
