What comes after the cleanout?
Repairs, pest control or a final deep clean, depending on what the crew found. The team passes along notes on damage so the owner can plan. For an occupied home, a plan for upkeep and support helps keep the rooms clear.
Will valuables and important papers be kept?

Can I clean out a hoarder house myself?
