Short answer

HomeGuide puts hoarding cleanup at $1,000 to $4,000 for most homes, or $1 to $2 per square foot, or $25 to $100 an hour. Severe cases involving biohazards can run $10,000 to $25,000 or more, which is specialist work beyond a junk removal crew.

What the job usually looks like

A hoarding cleanup is slower than a normal cleanout because things have to be looked at before they go. Papers, photos and anything the family wants to keep get set aside. The rest is loaded, and anything that falls under Wisconsin's disposal bans (appliances, TVs and computers, tires, batteries) goes where the law says.

Where junk removal stops

Clutter is junk removal. Biohazards, pest infestations and structural damage are not; they need a specialist cleaning company, and that is the part of the job that pushes HomeGuide's range to $10,000 to $25,000 or more (HomeGuide (hoarding cleanup)). If you are not sure which it is, say so when you ask for a quote and send photos.

Discretion

Ask for an unmarked vehicle if it matters to you, and a time of day that suits the household. It is a reasonable request.
