Only about 8% of homes in Jacksonville are vacant, so most squalor cleanups here involve a home that someone still lives in or is about to sell. Homes in Jacksonville have a median build year of 1987. Long-term moisture and grime can work into older materials, so the crew looks closely before cleaning.
The work often covers:
- Cleaning of refrigerators, ovens, sinks, toilets and tubs that have gone unclean for a long time
- Removal of trash, rotting food, spoiled items and long-term debris from living areas
- Deep scrubbing and disinfecting of kitchens, bathrooms, floors, counters and appliances
- Protective gear, containment and air control to keep contamination from spreading
- Cleanup of human and pet waste, with waste that may carry germs handled as regulated medical waste

Extreme Cleaning Questions Answered for Riverside, Jacksonville, FL
What happens to items that are removed?
Usable goods go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, soiled or unsafe items go to disposal, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.
What is extreme cleaning?
Extreme cleaning is a broad term for cleaning a home that is far beyond ordinary housekeeping. It can include trash removal, deep scrubbing, disinfecting, odor treatment and removal of soiled materials.
Can I clean up a filthy home myself?
Only if the area is small, the surfaces are hard and nothing hazardous is present, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, mold, pests or strong odor call for a crew. Never mix cleaning chemicals.
Does the resident need to be present?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
Can odor be fully removed?
Often yes, when the source is removed or treated. Soiled mattresses, carpet and soaked materials may need to go, and surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected. Covering smell with fragrance does not last.
Who pays for squalor cleanup?
Most often the resident, owner or family pays. For a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant. Some communities offer help for older adults or people with disabilities, and a local aging service or community group may know what exists.
