Can a landlord require hoarding cleanup?
Often a lease or local housing or fire rules allow a landlord to set a deadline for safety. A tenant rights group, a code office or an attorney can explain what applies. A cleanup team can often work toward a deadline.

A lightly crowded room may take a day, while a whole home with heavy buildup can take several days to a few weeks. The resident's pace, pests, mold and repairs all change the timeline. The team can estimate after seeing the home.
