We’ve seen them on TV shows. We’ve spotted them in our neighborhoods. But we might wonder; why do people hoard at all? Don’t they understand that they’re only making their lives painful and difficult? Don’t they get that they’re affecting other people in a negative way? Some relatives find themselves so frustrated about their loved one they make matters worse. So, why do people hoard, and how can we help them change their lives for the better? If you live in Exton, PA, we hope the information below will help. If you have any questions about hoarding cleanup procedures, call us today at (610) 524-8003.
They Don’t Want to Waste Anything
Some people hoard because they believe each and every item in their home is useful and should be used for something. They might think that if they throw something away, they’ll need it in the near future and regret what they did. Maybe they have a collection of extra hammers just in case their most-used hammer breaks. Maybe they save food well past its expiration date because they spent a lot of money on it, even if it’s rotten, smelly, and covered with mold. Maybe they’re saving gifts they want to eventually give relatives and friends in other states, even if keeping them might lead to the need for biohazard cleanup.
They’re Sentimental
Many hoarders keep items that remind them of vacations, special events, or happier times in their lives. Some items might belong to deceased loved ones. A professional hoarding cleanup company can help you clean up a hoarder’s home and take away much of the stress. All you need to do is call us.
