Questions Owners and Families in St. George, UT Ask About Unsanitary Home Cleanup
What happens to items that are removed?
Usable goods go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, soiled or unsafe items go to disposal, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.
What is squalor cleanup?
Squalor cleanup is the removal of filth, waste, spoiled food and contamination from a home in unsanitary condition, followed by deep cleaning and disinfecting. It is also called filth cleanup or extreme cleaning. A cleanup team uses protective gear and approved products.
Can a regular cleaning service handle a squalid home?
Usually not. A regular service is not equipped for waste, spoiled food, mold or pests. Squalor cleanup teams bring protective gear, hauling and disinfecting, and they know when to stop and call another trade.
Is squalor cleanup different from hoarding cleanup?
They overlap. Hoarding cleanup focuses on sorting and clearing belongings. Squalor cleanup focuses on sanitation, such as waste, rot and grime. Many homes need both, and one team can plan them together.
How do you help someone whose home has become filthy?
Be kind and avoid blame. Many people end up in these conditions after illness, injury, a loss or a hard stretch of life. Offer to help, ask what matters most to them and let a cleanup team handle the hard parts.
Does the resident need to be present?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
