Only about 10% of homes in Kansas City are vacant, so most cleanouts here involve a home that someone still owns or is about to sell. Many homes in Kansas City, about 63%, were built before 1980. The cleanout covers attics, crawl spaces and garages, where old items tend to pile up.

The work often covers:

  • Odor removal and treatment of affected areas using EPA-registered products
  • Clearing hallways, stairs, garages, sheds and storage areas as well as living spaces
  • Broom-clean or deep-cleaned finish, so the property is ready to be listed, rented or repaired
  • Trash removal, including bagged waste, spoiled food and damaged or soiled items
  • Cleanup of droppings, pest debris and water-damaged or moldy materials in cleared rooms

What Happens During a Hoarding Clean Out in Platte Ridge, Kansas City, MO

1. Safety first

Before lifting, the crew looks for unstable piles, sharp objects, mold and pests. Protective equipment is chosen to match what is found.

2. Mark what stays

The family or owner decides what is kept, donated or discarded. Tags or lists keep everyone on the same page.

3. Clear in a safe order

Exits, stairs and the kitchen come first, then bedrooms, garage and storage. Hazards such as sharp objects are bagged separately.

4. Finish with a clean

Rooms are cleaned to the level the job needs, from broom-clean to full disinfecting. Notes on repairs are passed to the owner.

Is hoarding a mental health condition?

Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition. A cleanout team does not diagnose anyone and treats every home and every person with respect.
