Huge mountain of Stella cans is cleared from hoarder's house

The house cleaners said they'd never seen so many cans

A business that cleans out the houses of hoarders found that they could fill a whole caged tipper with the mountain of Stella Artois cans they removed from one property in Plymouth.

According to Plymouth Live, waste management company Clear Junk took on a job to clear out someone's house last month and ended up having to tackle a veritable mountain of cans.

Lots of people let things pile up to a certain extent but some see their homes get so crammed full of stuff they either don't want to clean up or throw out that they can barely even move around in there.

Hoarding is considered by the NHS to be a disorder with links to a range of concerning mental health issues and people struggling with it can access counselling to help them with it.

In addition to the mental toll of hoarding there's another price to pay as people's physical health can be put at risk from the sheer volume of stuff they've got in their home.

When the house clearers arrived at the property they found they had a mountain of Stella Artois cans to clean up.

People can end up trapped and buried for hours under piles of their own belongings so it's best to get the mess cleared away even if it takes plenty of outside help to get it done.

When Clear Junk were called in to clean out a property in Plymouth they found that it was 'up there' with the worst jobs they'd ever done.

Since they have a special line in cleaning out hoarder's houses that's saying something, but fortunately they were able to shift the lot in one day.

Clear Junk boss Mat Goodman said it was an 'impressive' hoard of Stella cans to clear out, telling Plymouth Live they filled up a whole caged tipper with the stuff.

He said: "Nothing fazes me now, as you can imagine. We do this day in, day out but to be fair this job was impressive, I've never seen that many cans. We managed to fill an entire cage tipper with just cans.

"There was lots of leftover takeaways and food wrappers but 90 percent of it was cans. We managed to clear it within a day. There were three of us there so we just cracked on really."

Fortunately the house was able to be cleared of the cans in a day, though the new owners are recommended to completely renovate the place.

Mat said they were 'here to help people get back on track' as he found a leaking roof along with evidence that mice, rats, a cat and a dog had all lived there at some point, while the overpowering stench of rotting food permeated the place and had 'soaked in'.

Some people have found success in renovating former hoarder houses, snapping up a property at a bargain price and restoring the place to its former glory.

Sometimes people clearing up the former homes of hoarders find incredibly valuable treasures buried beneath the belongings.
