Good Morning, Next month my mum will be downsizing to a small one bedroom flat as her current home is uninhabitable due to it being extremely cluttered. At the moment my mum is living with me until we can have her house cleared and some of her furniture taken to her new flat.
My mum has hoarded nearly her whole life and her two bedroom town house in Islington has become extremely cluttered and hoarded, it is hard to access most rooms.
I need contact information for a reputable house clearance firm who specialise in clearing extremely cluttered and hoarded houses in Islington.
I can give a brief description of the house.
Both bedrooms have no access due to the huge amount of clutter barricading the doors from the inside, both doors will need to be removed from their hinges in order to clear these rooms. There are two storage cupboards upstairs in the hallway, each have coats, tools, shoes, bedding etc that need to be cleared. The bathrooms do not need to be touched, they are both empty.
The living rooms Is piled floor to ceiling with boxes of bric-a-brac, clutter, some rubbish, books etc, all of these boxes are to be cleared and some could be donated to charity, there is a lot of furniture amongst the clutter that needs to be cleared, some of it is to be kept.
The dining room is worse than the living room, furniture can not be seen due to mountains of clutter piled on top of it.
The kitchen is clean but is very cluttered, there are cardboard boxes full of crockery, food, cleaning products, books, clothing etc, it is very organised clutter. All the carpets need to be cleared from the house and a thorough clean carried out afterwards.
As well as having my mums extremely cluttered and hoarded house cleared, we need a large amount of items removed and taken to her new flat around the corner from her current house, is this something a house clearance company can do?
The removal consists of a three seater sofa, a wing back armchair and matching footstool, a glass topped coffee table, a 32″ television, a washing machine, fridge freezer and a sideboard.
All the other furniture in the house is to be cleared as we have purchased a new bed, wardrobes and other furniture for my mum.
We are looking at having the house cleared at the beginning of next month and would appreciate details of a house clearance company who can undertake this type of extremely cluttered and hoarded house clearance.
Thank you, Dianne

Good Morning Dianne, A few months ago my aunt down sized from a three bedroom bungalow to a one bedroom first floor flat.
My aunt was an extreme hoarder, due to the conditions she was living in she had no choice but to move.
I had to arrange to have her extremely cluttered and hoarded house cleared in Islington and also have some of her belongings moved to her new flat a few miles away.
I had never used a house clearance company before and took to AFTA for advice, I found The Cluttered House Clearance Company who came recommended by several customers on AFTA, I read some of their cluttered house clearance testimonials and emailed them on clutteredclearances@yahoo.com to receive more information on the services they offer.
In my email, I explained how extremely cluttered, hoarded and possibly verminous my aunts house was and also asked if they offered a cleaning service and a removal service.
I instantly received an email back from Tiffany who explained in great detail the services they offer and a quote for the clearance and clean, the removal service was free of charge, Tiffany explained that due to the extreme amount of clutter throughout my aunts bungalow, the whole process may take a few days.
I was happy to go ahead and booked their services for the following week.
On the day of the appointment a team of three cluttered house clearance specialists arrived in a large luton van, I showed them around as much as I could, gave them a list of everything that needed to remain in the bungalow ready for removal, the team began the clearance straight away.
It took three days to completely clear, clean and carry out the removal service.
On the first day the team cleared the living room, dining room and kitchen, the living room was extremely cluttered with piles of rubbish everywhere and stacks of books that nearly reached the ceiling, the dining room had to have the door removed to access, it had not seen daylight in over three years and the kitchen had empty food tins piled to knee-high as well as a huge amount of crockery stacked in boxes.
On the second day, the guys cleared two of the bedrooms and the bathroom, whilst clearing my aunts master bedroom that hadn’t been touched for years, the team found her wedding and engagement ring which they gave to me straight away.
On the last day, the team cleared the third bedroom, all the carpets throughout the bungalow and carried out the clean.
They then packed the van with a few items of furniture, five boxes on my aunts belongings and ten bags of clothes, they drove to my aunts new flat and unloaded the van, they even put the furniture in each room that we requested.
From start to finish, the whole process went smoothly, the guys were friendly, understanding of my aunts situation and were very hard-working.
I can highly recommend this company to clear, clean and carry out a removal service on your mums home too.
You can find their contact information on their website at http://www.clutteredhouseclearance.com.
