BERKELEY HOARDING CLEANUP


​Hoarders R US – Biohazard & Hoarding Cleaning Berkeley, California


Hoarding cleanup (hoarding and biohazard remediation) is a sensitive issue and dealing with the hoarder in a compassionate and informed manner is important to solving the hoarding issue.  Most hoarding cleanups are life events that most people are not fully prepared to handle.  At Bio Hazard Plus, we are sensitive to the fact that your possessions are not junk or trash and we understand that your items have meaning for you.  Our trained  technicians in Berkeley will work with you to devise a plan that considers your needs and emotional ties to your items that will be taken into consideration to restore your home to a livable and clutter-free condition.

Hoarding often creates extremely cramped living conditions with only narrow pathways winding through stacks of clutter. Countertops, sinks, stoves, desks, stairways, and all other surfaces are usually piled with stuff. You may not be able to use some areas for their intended purpose. For example, you may not be able to cook in the kitchen. When there's no more room inside your home, the clutter may spread to the garage, vehicles, yard, and other storage areas.

Here are some important facts to know about the condition termed as hoarding:

Hoarding affects approximately 1.5% of the U.S. population; approximately 4.5 to 5 million Americans.
Hoarders tend to hide their condition from the outside world due to some degree of embarrassment or shame about the condition.
Hoarding is classified as a mental health condition.

In its worst cases, compulsive hoarding can cause serious hazards, fires, and unclean living conditions (vermin and insect infestations) and injuries from tripping over debris, sharps related injuries and serious hazardous conditions. There is help for hoarders, clutter, or any type of hoarder situation in Berkeley. Call Bio Hazard Plus for hoarders/hoarding and biohazard removal services in Berkeley.

AM I OR MY LOVED ONE SAFE IN A HOARDING SITUATION?

​
No, you and/or your loved one are not safe in a hoarding situation. Here are some safety concerns to consider:

Hoarding can present a fire hazard.  Oftentimes the clutter and items may block doors and entrance ways presenting major hazardous concerns.  In the event of a fire, a person may not be able to safely exit a hoarder’s home.

A surplus of varmints and insects such as gnats, spiders and flies are usually present in a hoarder’s home.
Often spoiled and expired foods found in some of the hoarder’s homes can cause serious health issues.

Many of the elements that may be found in a hoarding cleanup such as blood, tissue, animal carcasses, and bodily fluid, are all considered to be bio- hazardous and can oftentimes be very dangerous to the health and wellbeing of yourself, your family.  It is recommended that you have a deep cleaning performed after each hoarding job.  Bio Hazard Plus offers this service and can also be retained to provide this service. Compassionate and professionally trained technicians are important in understanding the dynamics involved in hoarding.

First Responders, law enforcement agencies, and fire departments will advise you to seek a certified biohazard/hoarding remediation cleanup company for the cleaning. The unsafe nature of hoarding cleanup makes it strongly recommended that only adequately trained and certified hoarding cleanup (hoarding remediation) professionals remove and dispose debris.

Overwhelmed by Clutter? 

Hoarding is a serious obsessive-compulsive disorder that can lead a person who is a hoarder to acquire a significant number of items leading to clutter, dirt, and debris.  It often impairs the functionality of the home making it difficult to access and utilize some or all the rooms. 

Beyond just the clutter itself, hoarding can create a dangerous health situation.  Hoarders may have objects that often remain unmoved for months or years leading to mold and bacterial growth that would normally be swept away by regular cleaning.  Hoarding/Clutter can also increase the risk of fire and prevents occupants from having a safe, accessible exit route.

In addition, if the home has a pest infestation, it can make it impossible to successfully eradicate bugs or rodents.  Only once the clutter is cleared away can the pest problem be addressed properly.  Bio Hazard Plus is experienced in pest and rodent cleanup eliminating your need to look for additional professionals – we can clean it all!

From your initial hoarding consult to our team's arrival, you'll know exactly what to expect every step of the way.  

How Our Deep Cleaning Service Works

After contacting us for your free consultation, a team of cleaning technicians will assess the situation. Once a plan of action is determined, the remediation process will begin.
 

Arriving dressed in Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), our team of cleaning professionals will begin to remove certain porous items for laundering, such as fabrics and cloth material. They will then apply our EPA-approved products and chemicals to the remaining porous and non-porous materials. The application of industrial strength, virucidal cleaning products is executed following OSHA regulations and CDC recommendations, with some material ultimately discarded as biohazard waste.
 

After the sanitation of your entire space is complete, teams will work to deodorize the area using a HEPA filtration system in conjunction with a hydroxyl machine. These tools create reactive molecules that essentially eliminate volatile compounds from the air – the source of the odors left by chemical cleaning products.
 

Once finished with the remediation process, we will take a final walk-through of the property with you. The walk-through allows you to voice your concerns or ask any questions about the decontamination process. Our lead technician will then provide you coronavirus cleaning advice to help you throughout the ongoing pandemic – minimizing the risk of future exposure.
