Repeat Hoarder Shocks the Clean Team | Hoarders

1 in 20 people have a problem with hoarding - this extreme compulsion to stockpile items or not throw things away can have a severe impact on your wellbeing.

Our dedicated team are here to dig people out from being trapped in their own homes.

In this episode: Sally has already had her flat emergency cleared by the council after being classed as a bio-hazard, but has slipped back into her old habits. 40 year old Faye has become overwhelmed by her compulsive hoarding and her apartment is so full, she has to sleep on the sofa. And Richard’s kept newspapers for the past four decades and became known as the worlds worst hoarder....

Please tell me that poor cat has been rehomed. There is no reason it should suffer like that. Let her sit in her own filth, but get that cat away from her!

[elizabethcarrington]

Please take that poor animal away from Sally. She’s not capable of caring for herself much less another living creature. Horrible!

[nightshade]

If you "can't be bothered" to throw stuff away, you absolutely should not have a pet. Taking in another being and punishing them with the result of your laziness is so incredibly cruel. Make yourself miserable all you want, but leave innocent parties out of it..

2:30 "It's actually gone moldy. I don't understand why that happens to be honest...". And then continues to place it back where she found it, Hidden..

[Pammellam]

She really needs to live in a guided situation. And not on her own. She doesn’t work, living in a home would benefit her.

Sally's cat urinated on her laptop because she NEVER cleans the litterbox. And....A dirty litter box isn't pleasant for the cat either

[marniecordell]

Why has the animal control not been called by the people that helped clean? That’s animal abuse.

[BrighterThanYours]

If you cannot clean up after yourself throw EVERYTHING away. You need a couple shirts and some pants. Two pairs of shoes. The money you save can pay for a cleaner to come and tidy up since you can’t be bothered. That’s how you keep it clean.

I am a hoarder. However I fight the urge. I so easily could go out and thrift or op shop my home full of un needed treasures. Or see a thing on the aide of the road amd collect it. But I stop myself. I'm getting older. I don't want anything to happen to me and leave the crap for my kids to have to deal with

[chrisbouloux]

“ I have these biscuits for when visitors come……….”

Nobody is going to be visiting her in that disarray and filth willingly.

Pure laziness.

[KZesty]

The difference between Sally's and Fae's attitudes is incredible. I'm rooting for Fae, bless her with all the help she needs. She deserves peace and joy, help with her mental health.

[maumau]

The cat in the cage is horrible, abusive☹☹☹

[mentallymorbid]

the people who cleaned sally's home are so sweet! shes lucky to have them to help her

[kristymarsh]

Sally needs full-time care she clearly can't look after herself

[thetinglessasmrtist]

If you're a repeated offender like Sally, then you shouldn't be allowed to rent an apartment. The poor landlord shouldn't have to deal with her filth. The property damages cost thousands of dollars to repair

[cassiegreene]

She doesn't understand how the moldy bread got there, hidden behind the bed and she THROWS IT BACK THERE AGAIN!! Jeez. One word - lazy.

[susiefraser]

Sally is extremely immature. Immature people are like children. Total selfishness and no ability to have insight. Sitting around eating a banana while Caz and Tee clean up her hoard in hazmat suits. She hasn’t lifted a finger and has taken responsibility for absolutely nothing. With no actual consequences she will definitely do it again. I think she partly does it for some attention and for company.

[createwithkas]

Omgosh Custard 😢 And seeing the BEFORE pics of her first hoard knowing THOSE cats suffered. She should have a no pet clause.

[rushiaj]

She just seems lazy to me. The fact that she bought paper plates, probably so she didn’t have to do dishes and can’t take the time to throw them in the trash. Disgusting behavior

Geez Faye, you need to be kinder to yourself!
You're doing an incredible job, and doing it yourself.
You absolutely will get there, because you are putting in the hard work yourself and you won't want to go through this again.
You are also dealing with OCD habits, and even if you did have to recheck before putting in the bin, you still did it!
