About 39% of households in Louisville rent, so landlords and property managers often ask for a hoarding cleanout before a new tenant moves in. About 61% of homes in Louisville were built before 1980, and older houses often hold generations of belongings in attics, closets and sheds.
A typical hoarder house cleanout job includes:
Before lifting, the crew looks for unstable piles, sharp objects, mold and pests. Protective equipment is chosen to match what is found.
The family or owner decides what is kept, donated or discarded. Tags or lists keep everyone on the same page.
Crews sort room by room into keep, donate, recycle and remove. Released items are carried out and loaded.
Surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected, and odor is treated at the source. The home is walked once the job is done.

| Crew labor | $25 - $100 per worker per hour |
| Disposal and dumpster loads | $150 - $350 per load |
| Load-based junk removal | $300 - $800 per truckload |

Cleanout then becomes a shared project. The resident decides what is kept, the pace is set together and nothing is hauled without agreement. Support from a doctor, counselor or local group can help the progress last.
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.
Yes. Cleanouts are often scheduled before a listing, an inspection, a closing or a new tenant. Tell the team about the date early so the plan can fit it.
A small or lightly packed home sometimes can. A full house with heavy buildup usually cannot be done safely in one day. A larger crew can shorten the job, and the team can say what is realistic.
It carries real hazards, such as unstable piles, sharp objects, droppings and mold. Crews use protective gear and follow worker safety rules, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, if blood or sharps are found.
