Why Clients Hire—and Trust— Clutter&Hoarding Pros

One Client Wins the
​Declutter Lottery!

Half million found in attic
(For client confidentiality, photo is not actual picture of what we found)
We had an opportunity to work with a family whose father had died, leaving a massive, Level 4 hoarded home for them to clear. Our client said that there might be money in the home, but they had scoured every square inch (they thought) and retrieved all the valuables they had found.

Hidden Treasures in the Hoard

While my crew was working intensely on clearing the hoard, they found some pure silver jewelry hidden in holes in the mattresses—the jewelry was easily valued in the tens of thousands of dollars and would probably have been thrown out with the mattresses if they had just called a junk hauler to empty the hoard.

​We then found $800 in frozen $20 bills in the freezer! They had not thought of looking there, as it was jammed full of expired food and hadn’t been defrosted in way too long.

t the pièce de résistance was what we found in the attic. In nooks and crannies our clients had never even thought to look in, we found, stuffed into various jars, boxes, and other containers, an astonishing ​$472,000 in cash!

You can imagine how thrilled the family was, and how thankful that they had trusted Clutter&Hoarding Pros™ to find—and return— these valuables and cash.

It’s true, we charge more than junk removal companies, because we do more than just haul things away to the dump. We specialize in the details—looking through the hoarded home for the items of worth—the money, the coin collections, the documents, the vintage mementos, the family photos, the special wedding dress worn by grandma tossed into a heap.

We care, that’s what we do best—with no judgment and always with a positive attitude. We really do care, honor, and value your family’s heirlooms and understand how traumatic and emotionally overwhelming it is to clear the home of a loved one who had a hoarding disorder. Rescuing family valuables makes it just that much easier to deal with the grief and the stress.

​We encourage you to “shop around,” call other like services, but we promise you that should you retain our services, we will do everything in our power to make your experience as seamless as possible. Contact us for a trustworthy, compassionate, nonjudgmental hoarding remediation service.
