What To Do About Hoarding

Where does all the stuff come from?  And more importantly, how can we--as individuals and families--manage all the stuff?

Our SERVPRO Team Assists on Hoarders Clean Out

Our SERVPRO helps individuals and families when the stuff gets totally out of control. We assist on hoarders clean outs and estimates are free.  Even now, with some many communications being electronic in nature, there is still a mountain of paper and things out in our Universe.

Some tools to help manage, or prevent, the buildup of stuff in our homes and worlds may be getting a home shredder and using it every single day in conjunction with the US mail delivery.

Also, remembering to send out boxes and magazines with bi-weekly recycle pickups can help diminish the pile up of paper.  No recycle pick up? Magazines and periodicals can be donated to hair salons, etc.

Blocking out an hour of time a week, to go through things: clothes, shoes, knickknacks, papers, and other items, and being realistic about whether they are needed or used, and then unneeded items can be donated to charity, or perhaps friends or family may enjoy receiving the items.
