Are you or someone you know struggling with a hoarding disorder? Does the idea of cleaning out spaces feel overwhelming and daunting? If so, Bio-One of Oceanside is here to offer some help. Our professional technicians are sharing hoarding clean-out tips to restore your home into a safe and livable environment.
Here are four helpful tips that our specialists recommend to make the process easier for everyone involved. From those directly impacted by hoarding to their families and property managers as well. With our specialized processes, guidance, and support, you’ll have what it takes to clear the clutter from any space while also maintaining sensitive items that hold personal meaning!
Make a plan of attack and set realistic goals for the cleaning process.
It can be easy to get bogged down by the mess, but with a little planning, you can tackle it like a pro. Start by making a plan of attack, considering some of the following aspects:
- Prioritize which rooms need the most attention, or decide which tasks to tackle first.
- Set some realistic goals for the cleaning process. This will help you stay focused and motivated, and ensure that you are making progress in a timely manner.
- Sort items into categories for easier access.
Making a plan will help you stay on track and ensure that nothing gets overlooked during the cleanup process.
Treat personal items with special care, even if they aren’t something you plan on keeping.
When it comes to personal items, it's important to remember that everything we encounter has a certain value attached to it, sentimental or purely monetary. Perhaps some of the items collected during the cleaning process could be useful to someone else and if we are not careful, we may end up damaging them. Use the right cleaning tools and materials for each item, including clothes or brushes!
We take great pride in providing a thorough service that leaves our clients satisfied with their newly organized space. We are also conscious of the environment, so we always strive to recycle and donate as much as possible. After all, there is no need for unnecessary waste!
Keep like-items together in clear containers or bins so it’s easier to see what’s inside without having to sort through the clutter every time you need something.
One simple and effective way to keep your belongings in order is by using clear containers or bins. This way, you can easily see what’s inside without having to sort through the clutter every time you need something.
We also suggest investing in organizational tools like shelving units and hooks so that items can be kept off of the floor and put away neatly. A cluttered space is not only unappealing but it can be dangerous as well, as tripping over something is a much greater risk than if everything is in its proper place.
Labeling items can also help keep you organized and make it easier to find what you need when you need it. You can use sticky notes or labels to mark which box contains what items. This way, instead of having to go through several boxes to find what you’re looking for, you can just check the label and know exactly which box it is in. Finally, getting rid of items that are no longer necessary or useful will help keep your space organized. If you don't use an item often, get rid of it!
