Hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition in its own right. Only a doctor or mental health professional can say what applies to a particular person. A cleanup team does not diagnose, and it treats every resident with respect.
Hoarding is often described in levels, and level one is the lightest. Clutter is present but exits and pathways are open, utilities work and rooms can still be used. Higher levels bring blocked rooms, sanitation problems and safety hazards.
The main risks are fire, falls, pests, mold and trouble getting help. Blocked exits slow escape and slow firefighters and paramedics. A cleanup lowers these risks in order, starting with exits and fire hazards.
