Hoarding clean-up in Halifax, explained

Since May 2026 our crews have completed 2 hoarder clean-ups in Halifax, clearing and cleaning 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 kitchens.

Every job starts with a private walk-through. Our hoarding cleaners clear exits and walkways first, sort belongings with you into keep, donate, recycle and dispose, haul the garbage away, then deep clean and sanitise top-down — kitchens, bathrooms, appliances, walls and floors — so the home is safe and liveable again.

We cover all of Halifax, plus nearby Fall River, Beaver Bank, Upper Sackville. The hoarder cleaning cost depends on volume and condition, so we quote it after seeing the home — the table below shows what customers actually paid and the room prices behind every quote.

A few things that make the clean faster

  • Point out anything that must be kept — documents, photos, medication, valuables
  • Tell us about pets, pests, mould or sharps so the crew comes equipped
  • Agree with the household which rooms come first
  • Check building rules for bins, elevators or a disposal bin on the driveway
  • Keep the power and water on — we need lights and hot water to sanitise
  • Let neighbours or the building manager know if you want it kept discreet
