Hoarding cleanup is never just about trash bags and disposal crews. It is about stepping into an environment where belongings have turned into barriers and where the emotional weight of letting go is often heavier than what is stacked in a room. Our team understands that every item represents a story and every decision carries pressure. We work slowly, respectfully, and with safety as our foundation so your home can be restored at a pace you are comfortable with.
Health hazards are common in hoarded homes and they are not always visible at first glance. Mold hides beneath stacks, pests thrive in undisturbed areas, and structural issues often begin where clutter meets moisture. We identify and neutralize those risks before they cause more harm. From removing waste to sanitizing surfaces to making sure pathways and living spaces return to normal function, we handle the full scope of cleanup from start to finish.

From the first call to the final walk‑through, Code Three Clean follows a clear, compassionate process to restore safety and peace of mind.
When you reach out, a team member gathers key details about what happened, who is affected, and what areas are involved so we can determine the right response. For emergencies, a first responder–staffed crew is dispatched 24/7; for non‑urgent cases, we schedule a visit at a time that works best for you.
Once on site, the team conducts a discreet walkthrough to identify visible and hidden hazards, structural impacts, and safety risks. We then explain what needs to be done, answer questions, and provide a clear, written estimate—often with options to work directly with your insurance.
Before cleaning begins, technicians set up safety zones, PPE, and containment barriers to keep unaffected areas clean and prevent cross‑contamination. All work follows strict OSHA, EPA, and CDC‑aligned protocols, just as first responders would expect on an active scene.
The team removes biohazards, debris, and contaminated materials, then cleans, disinfects, and deodorizes all affected surfaces. Whether the scene involves trauma, hoarding, infectious disease, or odors, we use professional‑grade equipment to restore a safe environment.
After cleanup, we walk the space with you to review the work, address any concerns, and explain what was done and why. When applicable, we help document the loss for insurance and make sure you know what next steps and resources are available.
