Keeping becomes hoarding at the point where rooms stop working. A tub holding storage, a stove that cannot be reached, a bed nobody can sleep in. Lost function is the real definition, and restoring that function is what a cleanup actually buys.

This is emotional work before it is physical work. Overwhelmed, stuck and unsure where to start is how nearly every caller describes themselves, so the first conversation is slow, private and asks nothing of you but honesty.

Absolutely not! Minnesota Hoarding is in the business of working with you to restore your home to a clean and safe condition.  We will not contact any government, social service, or community agency to report on the condition of your home.

If you request it, however, Minnesota Hoarding can work with agencies with whom you are already involved.  For example, we have talked with case managers, inspectors, and other service providers.  The goal in each case is to understand their concerns so we can better restore your home to a clean and safe condition.  

Sometimes, Minnesota Hoarding may clean select areas of the home during the initial project and return at a later time to complete additional phases.  Generally, however, Minnesota Hoarding provides a one-time service.  Because of our connections within the community, we can provide resources to professional organizers, in-home support providers, counselors, and others who can provide follow-up services to help you maintain your clean and safe surroundings!

Yes! Minnesota Hoarding is both native to Minnesota and woman-owned!
