Hoarding is a compulsive tendency to accumulate worthless possessions and an inability to throw anything away. Hoarding distresses families and angers neighbors. Hoarding has received a lot of exposure due to reality television.

It’s estimated compulsive hoarding affects approximately 700,000 to 1.4 million people in the US. Many people hoard not to collect or save things but because they fear throwing something away. They may experience anxiety when considering discarding something, so they keep it instead to prevent feeling anxious.Hoarding cleanup services depend a lot on the type of hoarding.

Hoarding disorder (HD) is believed to affect people of all races, ethnicities, and cultures, and men and women at similar rates. However, some say that the prevalence of HD is higher in older people, as high as 6%. This is because older people tend to spend more time at home and have fewer social interactions.
Hoarding can lead to dangerous and even deadly situations. People with HD may also have difficulties with executive functioning, such as attention, decision-making, and inhibition.
