According to studies, Hoarding impacts anywhere from 5-7% of the population; approximately 19 million people in the United States. Researchers believe compulsive hoarding disorder affects approximately 1 in every 50 people but the impact spreads far past that. It affects friends, family, loved ones, and neighbors.
It’s important to understand that hoarding isn’t just the result of a messy housekeeper. Hoarding disorder is a behavioral pattern defined by a person's inability to let go of obviously useless items that have little to no monetary or true sentimental value.
Often there are other issues tied to the accumulation of clutter. Steri-Clean® Cincinnati is here to help you or your family members find your way out of the mess, the despair and out of the clutter and into a new beginning.
The 5 Levels Of Hoarding:
Level 1 is very simple clutter and really doesn't affect a homes functionality. Most homes throughout the world can have this type of clutter at one time or another.
Level 2 hoarding is when your horizontal surfaces like counter-tops, tables, window ledges, etc. are unusable. Functional areas of the home are still accessible and usable.
Level 3 hoarding will typically have the perimeters of the room filled. Closets and cupboards are filled and piles of clutter are encroaching on usable spaces. Functionality of many areas of the home are now becoming threatened.
Level 4 hoarding will include clutter in all functional spaces. It now impedes upon the flow of traffic throughout the home, and may have some rooms inaccessible. There are often rodents and insects living in the home. Some necessary utilities and appliances may be non-functioning such as: gas, electricity, plumbing, stoves and refrigerators. Level 4 is considered a moderate to a severe situation.
Level 5 hoarding is present when the house is completely full. There may be narrow pathways or no pathways at all. Typically, most rooms are filled floor to ceiling and are completely inaccessible. The ingress/egress into and out of the home are difficult or next to impossible. Biohazards in the form of human and/or animal waste may be present. Rodent and pest infestations are likely. Both cosmetic and structural damage exist and gross filth is likely. Level 5 is the most severe and dangerous.
We understand each client and every hoarding situation is unique. It may involve items stacked neatly, or with no organization at all. There may be pathways or filled rooms. There is no standard for a hoarded home. Hoarding cleanup situations may involve rotten food, animal carcasses, animal or human waste, and much more – all of which could be detrimental to your health. The danger of fire hazards and or collapse, due to the excessive clutter, can be fatal and is often overlooked as a priority for remediation.
