Hoarding Cleanout Services in Boston & Greater Boston

Hoarding cleanouts are not regular junk removal jobs. The volume is bigger, the debris is more complex, and the situation requires patience — not just a big truck. We've done hundreds of them across Boston, Somerville, Cambridge, Medford, Malden, Charlestown, and the surrounding area. We show up without judgment, we work at a pace that fits the job, and we don't leave until it's done.

Marvin Junk Removal is a locally owned, Somerville-based company. We're not a franchise routing your call through a national center. When you reach out, you're talking to the people who will actually show up at your door. On a job like this, that matters.

All hoarding cleanouts are priced by volume, type of debris, and access — you get an honest upfront price before we start. Same-day appointments available. One call or one text and we get started.

Every hoarding cleanout we do starts the same way — we listen first. Some situations have been building for years. Some are being addressed after a loss. Some are landlords dealing with a unit left in extreme condition. Whatever the situation is, we approach it the same way: professionally, carefully, and without making anyone feel worse about it.

Here is what the process looks like from your first call to a clean space:

You call or text us. Describe the situation or send a photo. We give you an honest assessment — what the job involves, how long it will take, and what it costs. No pressure, no commitment until you are ready.

We show up on time with the right crew and equipment. Hoarding cleanouts often require more than one person and more than one load. We come prepared so we are not making two trips when one well-planned job can handle it.

We sort as we go. Usable furniture and household items go to local donation organizations. Metal and appliances get recycled. Everything else is hauled out and disposed of responsibly. We do not just throw everything in the truck — we sort it properly.

We clear the space completely. Furniture, appliances, clothing, boxes, trash, years of accumulated debris — all of it gone. Every room, every floor, every closet if that is what the job calls for.

Full-property hoarding cleanouts for houses, condos, and multi-family homes across Boston, Somerville, Cambridge, Medford, Malden, Charlestown, Woburn, Everett, Chelsea, and all of Greater Boston. Every room, every floor, every closet. Furniture, appliances, clothing, boxes, trash, and decades of accumulated items — all removed, sorted, and hauled out. Priced by volume, type of debris, and access. You get an exact quote before we start.

Not every hoarding cleanout is a whole house. Sometimes it is one bedroom that has become impossible to navigate. A basement packed floor to ceiling. An attic nobody has opened in fifteen years. A garage that has not held a car since 2009. We handle partial cleanouts across Greater Boston with the same upfront pricing and no-judgment approach as any full-property job.

Clearing out a family member's home after they have passed — especially when hoarding was involved — is one of the most emotionally difficult jobs there is. We have helped families across Somerville, Cambridge, Boston, Medford, Malden, and Charlestown through exactly this situation. We sort carefully, move respectfully, and handle everything so the family does not have to. We treat every estate cleanout like it matters — because it does.

Landlords and property managers across Greater Boston call us regularly when a tenant leaves a unit in hoarding condition. We have walked into apartments in Allston, triple-deckers in Somerville, multi-family buildings in Malden and Everett, and condos in Charlestown — all left in extreme condition. We turn units around fast with no-nonsense pricing and full-service haul-outs. Priced by volume and debris type.

Hoarding cleanouts involve a wide range of debris — and the mix of what is in the property directly affects how the job is priced. Here is what we typically encounter and remove:

Furniture and large items: Sofas, mattresses, bed frames, dressers, tables, chairs, recliners, shelving, cabinets

Appliances: Refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, freezers, dishwashers, microwaves, water heaters — including units that have not worked in years

Clothing and textiles: Bags, boxes, and piles of clothing, linens, and fabric items sorted and donated where possible

Boxes and paper: Newspapers, magazines, mail, cardboard boxes, bags — often the heaviest volume in a hoarding situation

Electronics and e-waste: TVs, computers, printers, cables, small appliances

Construction debris: Renovation waste, scrap wood, drywall, metal, old tools

General accumulation: Trash bags, storage containers, miscellaneous household items, yard items brought inside

Mixed heavy debris: Cast iron radiators, boilers, pipes, heavy equipment in basements — priced separately based on weight and access

⚠️ We do not haul paint, hazardous chemicals, biohazardous waste, or motor oil. If you are unsure about specific items — text us. Most things are a yes.

Hoarding cleanouts are never one-size-fits-all. A single cluttered bedroom in Cambridge is a very different job from a three-story house in Dorchester that has been accumulating for twenty years. That is why we price every hoarding cleanout based on three factors:

Volume: How much material is there? One truckload or five? The total volume of debris is the biggest driver of cost.

Type of debris: General household items are straightforward. Heavy appliances, cast iron, construction debris, and mixed materials take more time and equipment — and are priced accordingly.

Access: A ground-floor unit with a wide door is one thing. A third-floor triple-decker in East Boston with a tight staircase and no parking on the street is another. Access directly affects how long the job takes and how many people we need.

You always get an exact upfront price before we start. No surprises when we arrive. No charges added after the job is done. Text us a photo or a description of the situation and we will give you a realistic number fast.

No judgment, ever: We have seen every situation — properties that took years to reach that point, estate situations, landlord emergencies, and everything in between. We are not here to comment. We are here to help.

We are local and we actually show up: Based at 61 Heath St, Somerville. A real local business — the people you talk to are the people who arrive at your door.

400+ five-star Google reviews: Real customers, real jobs, all across Greater Boston.

We sort responsibly: Usable items go to local donation organizations. Appliances and metal get recycled. We do not dump everything in a landfill if it does not have to be there.

Transparent pricing — no surprises: Volume, debris type, and access. You know the price before we lift a finger.

Same-day available: Call or text before 2PM. We run jobs throughout Greater Boston every day and we are often already close by.

We handle the hard stuff: Cast iron boilers in Medford basements, third-floor triple-deckers in Somerville, tight walkups in Charlestown — we come with the right crew and the right equipment.
