Papers, photos, medicine, jewelry and keepsakes are gathered and kept safe. The resident can name anything that must not be moved.
Items go into keep, donate and remove groups. Spoiled food and unsafe items leave first.
Floors, counters, sinks and bathrooms are cleaned and disinfected. Odor is treated at the source where possible.

Often a lease or local housing or fire rules allow a landlord to set a deadline for safety. A tenant rights group, a code office or an attorney can explain what applies. A cleanup team can often work toward a deadline.
Usable items go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, damaged or unsafe items are disposed of correctly, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.
A single lightly crowded room sometimes can. A whole house with heavy buildup usually takes several days or longer, and short sessions suit many residents. The team can give a realistic estimate after it sees the home.
Speak calmly, start with safety and ask what they want to keep. Avoid blame and surprises, and agree on a small first step. Many people feel more at ease once they know who will be in the home and what will happen.
