Questions Owners and Families in Security-Widefield, CO Ask About Unsanitary Home Cleanup

Is squalor cleanup done before a tenant moves in?

It can be. Property managers and landlords sometimes schedule cleanup before a new tenant moves in, and some require proof that cleaning was done. The team can note the condition of the home for the owner's records.

Can a regular cleaning service handle a squalid home?

Usually not. A regular service is not equipped for waste, spoiled food, mold or pests. Squalor cleanup teams bring protective gear, hauling and disinfecting, and they know when to stop and call another trade.

What is extreme cleaning?

Extreme cleaning is a broad term for cleaning a home that is far beyond ordinary housekeeping. It can include trash removal, deep scrubbing, disinfecting, odor treatment and removal of soiled materials.

Can a team clean after the resident has moved out or passed away?

Yes. A cleanup team can clear and clean a home once the resident has moved, entered care or died. The family or estate decides what is kept, and the work moves at their pace.

Can a landlord require squalor cleanup?

Often yes. A lease and local housing rules usually allow a landlord to require a clean, sanitary unit. A tenant rights group or an attorney can explain what applies in a specific case. A cleanup team can often work toward a deadline.

What happens to items that are removed?

Usable goods go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, soiled or unsafe items go to disposal, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.
