Hoarders typically collect excessive amount of items such as newspaper, magazines, books, clothing, containers, cardboard, garbage or even rotten food. Often times, people that hoard has difficulty discarding or parting with their possessions because they believe that an item will be useful or valuable in the future. These objects will cover the living areas of the home and cause significant distress. Hoarding can prevent typical use of space and limit activities such as cooking, cleaning, moving through the house, and sleeping. It could potentially put the individual and others at risk of causing fires, falling hazards, poor sanitation, and/or mold growth. Failure to properly remove such substances can contribute to unhealthy and dangerous environments.
