Most people have a collection of some sort in Brentwood, Franklin, Mt. Juliet, Murfreesboro, Nashville, Smyrna, TN, and the surrounding areas, but a collection can quickly turn to hoarding when the items kept are of no value. At T.A.C.T. of Middle Tennessee we have seen different hoarding situations, and it is important to get professional assistance with a hoarder cleaning service. While many think that it's just a large collection of things like newspapers or magazines, in truth it is often worthless items that are being held onto that have no value, and in fact are contributing to an unsanitary condition for the hoarder and the building itself. The hoarding situation itself usually requires people to wear protective clothing or gear, and the conditions can cause negative health effects including respiratory issues. Hoarding is not an issue to tackle yourself, so contact us right away for hoarder cleaning services and let us develop a plan to get things cleaned up.

It Is More Than Just Clutter

We've all seen a cluttered space, and usually in less than an hour the space can be properly cleaned and many of the items causing the clutter can be removed and discarded or found a new home elsewhere in the house. With hoarding, however, the situation is much different. It isn't just a few items that are cluttering up a space, it is hundreds of items that really have no place in the space, but that the hoarder themselves cannot seem to let go of.

The sad reality is that many hoarding situations also include elements of biohazards. From rotting food to animal waste, as well as mold and sometimes deceased animal carcasses, it is important that safety is at the top of the list. Our team has the right personal protective equipment to wear, plus many items much be properly disposed of, and not necessarily in the normal garbage either.

Different Kinds of Hoarders

Hoarding doesn't all look the same primarily because no two people are the same. Some hoarders are that way with compulsive shopping and not getting rid of old or broken things. Sometimes collectors are really hoarders, but they hide it with a collection; collections that aren't properly organized and are messy are a sign that it could be hoarding instead. Food hoarders, garbage hoarders, mail hoarders, and other kinds of hoarding can make each situation unique and challenging.

No matter the kind of hoarding happens in Brentwood, Franklin, Mt. Juliet, Murfreesboro, Nashville, Smyrna, TN, and the surrounding areas, the end result is a situation that is dangerous for the hoarder as well as anyone that goes into that location. T.A.C.T. of Middle Tennessee can help remove all of the hoarding materials and bring the space back to a habitable condition. Contact us today to learn more about our hoarder cleaning services.
