The exact intake your hoarding cleanup leads complete
This is the real 7-question guided intake for Hoarding Cleanup — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified hoarding cleanup lead should tell you
Cleanup and removal of extreme clutter or accumulation in a property, often accompanied by biohazard conditions like mold, pests, or waste, and safety hazards such as blocked exits, requiring the caller to be the owner or an authorized party before a crew can be scheduled.
- Best Describes Property Needing
- Severe Clutter Or Accumulation
- There Any Biohazard Concerns
- Property Owner Or Authorized
- Soon Cleanup Start
- Areas Property Affected
- There Current Safety Hazard
The questions your team needs answered
Every hoarding cleanup intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What best describes the property needing cleanup? | Property type shapes crew scope and whether landlord documentation is needed before scheduling a rental or commercial job differently than a single-family home. |
| How severe is the clutter or accumulation in the property? | Clutter severity drives crew size, dumpster count, and time-on-site estimates before your team quotes the job. |
| Are there any biohazard concerns such as mold, pests, or human or animal waste present? | Confirmed biohazard conditions determine whether the crew needs specialized PPE and medical or biological waste disposal protocols. |
| Are you the property owner or authorized to arrange this cleanup? | Authorization status determines whether the lead needs a verification step before an assessment can be scheduled at all. |
| How soon do you need the cleanup to start? | Start timeline separates leads that need same-week dispatch from those still comparing options, changing how quickly your team should respond. |
| Which areas of the property are affected? | Segments the lead so you can route, price, and prioritize it correctly. |
| Is there a current safety hazard such as blocked exits, structural risk, or fire hazard? | A confirmed safety hazard like a blocked exit raises liability urgency, prompting faster prioritization for an in-person assessment. |

Built for hoarding cleanup workflows
| Cliont capability | Hoarding Cleanup application |
|---|---|
| Conditional scoring logic | When a lead confirms biohazard concerns and severe clutter together, the intake weights the combination higher so it surfaces above a mild-clutter, no-hazard enquiry. |
| Authorization gating | Leads where the caller isn't the property owner or an authorized party are flagged at a low weight, prompting a verification step before your team schedules an assessment. |
| Photo and video capture | Room-by-room photos of clutter and any visible biohazard or blocked-exit conditions are collected before the assessment, so crews arrive prepared for scope and PPE needs. |
| Urgency tagging | Immediate-timeline leads and leads with a confirmed safety hazard are tagged as urgent so they route to the top of your CRM queue instead of a general follow-up list. |
| CRM routing | Once a lead clears clutter severity, biohazard, and authorization checks, it's sent to your CRM with the affected areas and timeline already attached to the record. |
Common hoarding cleanup lead scenarios
Severe clutter with blocked exits
Caller reports severe clutter blocking most rooms plus a safety hazard like a blocked exit, which the intake flags for immediate assessment rather than a standard queue slot.
Biohazard waste alongside moderate clutter
Moderate clutter combined with a confirmed biohazard concern such as pests or waste changes what your crew needs to prep before rolling out, and the intake surfaces that detail ahead of time.
Family member calling, not the owner
An adult child inquires about a parent's property but isn't the owner or an authorized party, so the intake flags the authorization gap for follow-up before an assessment gets scheduled.
Landlord clearing a rental unit
A landlord reports the entire rental property is affected with a longer within-a-month timeline, a different scope and urgency mix than a single-family homeowner facing an immediate hazard.
Early-stage exploration, mild clutter
Caller selects mild clutter with walkways mostly clear and says they're just exploring options, giving your team a lower-urgency lead to nurture instead of dispatching a crew.

Hoarding Cleanup lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake handle callers who aren't the property owner?
The intake asks directly whether the person is the owner or authorized to arrange the cleanup, and an unauthorized answer is weighted lower so your team can follow up and confirm authorization before scheduling an assessment.
Can the intake flag biohazard conditions before we send a crew?
Yes, the intake asks whether mold, pests, or human or animal waste is present, and a confirmed biohazard concern is weighted higher so those leads stand out for crews that need extra PPE or disposal planning.
What if the caller isn't sure how severe the clutter is?
The severity question includes a 'Not sure' option that still scores the lead in a mid-range band, so it isn't dropped and can be reviewed with a follow-up question rather than discarded.
Does the intake ask about safety hazards like blocked exits?
Yes, a dedicated question asks whether there's a current safety hazard such as blocked exits, structural risk, or fire hazard, and a confirmed hazard raises the lead's priority.
How does timeline urgency affect which leads get flagged first?
Leads that select 'Immediately' for the start timeline are treated as urgent alongside confirmed safety hazards, so your team can see which enquiries need same-week attention versus longer-term planning.
Does this intake work for rental units and commercial properties, not just houses?
Yes, the property type question covers single-family homes, apartments or condos, landlord-managed rental units, and commercial properties, so the lead record reflects the actual property context from the start.
