Hoarding cleaning is more than rubbish removal.
Behind the visible clutter, a property may contain sharps, bodily fluids, spoiled food, mould, pest contamination, hazardous waste and deeply embedded odours. Unstable piles and restricted access routes can create further risks for residents, support workers and contractors.
That is why specialist hoarding cleaning teams must be trained to a high standard.
Our operatives need to understand:
• Sharps awareness and safe handling procedures
• Biohazard and contamination control
• Appropriate PPE and cleaning methods
• Waste identification, segregation and disposal
• Odour treatment and decontamination
• Safe, careful property clearance
• How to work respectfully around vulnerable residents
This is why Trauma Clean 24 Seven uses the National Academy of Specialist Cleaners for specialist training. Its course provision includes hoarder and clearance training alongside biohazard, bloodborne pathogen, needles and sharps, and risk assessment training.
Professional training helps our teams recognise risks, select suitable control measures and complete each clearance safely, sensitively and responsibly.
We support councils, social workers, landlords, housing associations and property managers throughout Essex, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and London.
