Why You Should Turn to Our Hoarder Cleaning Company in Indio

After many years of acquiring new items, collecting things or not disposing of trash, broken or unneeded items, a property may be full of belongings. The sheer quantity of items may be overwhelming and impossible for one person to handle. Our experienced hoarder property cleaning team at Eco Bear gets the job done in much less time than it would take you or your family to get rid of the hoard. 

Safety is another reason to have our professionals perform hoarder property cleaning at your Indio property. Many hoards contain biological materials, such as pet waste, human waste, moldy food, rotted food, pest droppings, dead bugs and vermin. Hoards may also contain hidden items, such as rusted metal, sharp knives or old medications. Underneath a hoard, there may be serious structural damage, including wet or dry rot, holes in floors, mold or wood-destroying insect damage. Exposure to these hazardous items puts your health and safety at risk. Our experienced cleaners know how to safely handle these situations. We have the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent infection from bacteria, viruses, mold spores, fungi and parasites that may be present in a hoard.

We also have connections to local professionals who may assist with the hoarder property cleanup. If the hoard includes a lot of recyclable materials, we arrange for their proper disposal. Some hoards include pets. In these cases, we contact local veterinarians and the Humane Society in order to safely remove pets, get them veterinary care and find them new homes if needed.

How Our Hoarder Property Cleaning Services Work

Our process starts with an on-site evaluation. We need to know the volume of the hoard, what’s in it and whether there are special circumstances, such as a pet hoarding situation. We provide you with a written estimate for the clean-up. Our team arranges for the delivery and retrieval of dumpsters, pickup of recycling and any other services that are needed, such as a structural engineer’s inspection for properties with structural damage. 

On the first day of cleanup, you’re welcome to be there with us, but you don’t have to be. We’ll communicate with you by phone if you’re not on site. The amount of time it takes us to clean a hoarder property in Indio ranges from a couple of days to more than one week. We bring our own PPE, cleaning supplies, bags, dollies and equipment.

We’ll save any special items for you if we find them in the hoarded property. If you’re dealing with a code violation and need documentation of the cleanup, we’ll provide it to you. You can also count on us for clearing overgrown vegetation and large outdoor items.
