Squalor cleanup is the removal of filth, waste, spoiled food and contamination from a home in unsanitary condition, followed by deep cleaning and disinfecting. It is also called filth cleanup or extreme cleaning. A cleanup team uses protective gear and approved products.

Will the resident's belongings and papers be saved?

Yes where they can be. The crew sets aside documents, photos, medicine and valuables that can be cleaned, and the resident can name anything that must be kept. Items too soiled to clean safely are discarded.

Can odor be fully removed?

Often yes, when the source is removed or treated. Soiled mattresses, carpet and soaked materials may need to go, and surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected. Covering smell with fragrance does not last.
