That depends on the plan. Some jobs end broom-clean, and others include deep cleaning, disinfecting and odor treatment. Ask the team to say exactly what the job covers before work starts.
Stay calm and kind. Ask what they most want to keep, avoid words like trash or filth and never remove things without asking. A cleanup team can explain the plan so the person knows what to expect.

Yes. Hoarding clean out services and hoarder cleanout companies do this work. Look for a team that sorts for valuables, explains how waste is disposed of and works with the owner or family.
Tell the team about any closing, inspection or move-out date so the plan can fit it.
