House Clearance In Farnham, Surrey GU9, Clearing A Hoarded House

October 2, 2012 By Avery Associates

Farnham Hoarder House Clearance

Details of a recent full house clearance of a hoarded property in Farnham, Surrey

House clearance on the 7th August 2012 in Crondall Lane, Farnham, Surrey, GU9 of a 2 bedroom flat affected by hoarding

This small flat had been inhabited by a compulsive hoarder for a number of years, and as a result it was in a very bad condition. First we had to make sure that the property was safe to enter and did not have any structural issues but it turned out to be fine. After the clearance we asked whether the new owner wanted it to be cleaned but he just wanted it cleared.

Clearance Overview

Because of the quantity of items that needed to be cleared from the property we needed more vehicles than we normally use for a property of this size. Luckily there were no access issues because there was ample parking space outside the building. This was a two day job so we started clearing the property first thing in the morning on the first day and by 6pm the following day we had completely cleared the contents. We had to be very careful throughout the job because when there are so many items they can often conceal dangerous objects, and there was also the risk of falling objects to consider.

Disposal of Contents

Many of the items had to be sent to waste unfortunately because they were in such bad condition. However, there were many newspapers, magazines and old books which could be recycled so we sent them to our recycling centre.

Client Comments

The client from nearby in Farnham was happy with the speed of the clearance and was impressed that we took so many safety precautions and acted professionally throughout. He was also pleased that we did not cause much disturbance to other residents of the building.

Our House Clearance Services

We provide a full house clearance and property management solution:

  • We clear hoarded houses, regardless how big or how cluttered
  • We clear all types and sizes of property, irrespective of location, or access is restricted or where parking is difficult or not available.
  • We can help avoid water damage by draining the central heating system.

As well normal house clearances we specialise in clutter clearance and we can clear a hoarded house which may contain years of accumulated possessions, or which have abnormal amounts of general household items, sometimes as a result of compulsive hoarding syndrome.

Equally we can help to clear a property where the occupants were previously unwell and unable to care for themselves or their property which sometimes results in insanitary, dangerous or just plain unpleasant conditions.
