Filth and Squalor Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Tappan, NY

What is extreme cleaning?

Extreme cleaning is a broad term for cleaning a home that is far beyond ordinary housekeeping. It can include trash removal, deep scrubbing, disinfecting, odor treatment and removal of soiled materials.

What happens to items that are removed?

Usable goods go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, soiled or unsafe items go to disposal, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.

Can a regular cleaning service handle a squalid home?

Usually not. A regular service is not equipped for waste, spoiled food, mold or pests. Squalor cleanup teams bring protective gear, hauling and disinfecting, and they know when to stop and call another trade.

Is squalor cleanup different from hoarding cleanup?

They overlap. Hoarding cleanup focuses on sorting and clearing belongings. Squalor cleanup focuses on sanitation, such as waste, rot and grime. Many homes need both, and one team can plan them together.

How do you clean a house in unsanitary condition?

Remove trash and spoiled food first, then waste and soiled materials, then scrub and disinfect, and finish with odor treatment. Protective gear is important, and mixed cleaning chemicals should never be used together.

Can odor be fully removed?

Often yes, when the source is removed or treated. Soiled mattresses, carpet and soaked materials may need to go, and surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected. Covering smell with fragrance does not last.
