A Careful Hoarder Cleanout Plan for Lake George, NY Homes

1. Safety first

Before lifting, the crew looks for unstable piles, sharp objects, mold and pests. Protective equipment is chosen to match what is found.

2. Plan hauling

Dumpsters, trucks and donation drop-offs are lined up for the property. Larger items get a lifting plan.

Trash goes to disposal, usable goods go to donation, and recyclables go where they belong. Spoiled and unsafe items leave first.

4. Final sweep and notes

The house is swept, key rooms are cleaned and notes on damage are shared. The owner learns what comes next, such as repairs or pest control.
