Animal Hoarding Cleanup

Animal hoarding can be hazardous to not only the owners, but the animals as well. This practice leads to a severe drought of sanitation, food, water, medical care, and space. Conditions can become severe and should be treated by professionals.

You called the right team for the job

Nobody wins when it comes to animal hoarding. It can be a very dangerous situation for both the property owner and the animals themselves.

At Bio-One of South Sound, the safety risks are understood. We aim to provide a healthy and livable environment for anybody who’s been involved. 

Owner Risk

In our experience, the owners are put at great risk by hoarding animals. The danger lies in the fact that they can’t see that. Once the hoarding has started, animals are continually welcomed with no end in sight. The owner tends to neglect their own needs and provide for the animals first. 

Hygiene, food and water are the first to be affected by this practice. Animal waste gets airborne and can directly impact any food and water sources. This animal waste could be coming from:

  • rats
  • dogs
  • cats

Typically, their waste carries bacteria and parasites which are linked to human disease. Thus, tainting food and water available to the owner without their knowledge. 

Animal Risk

Much like owners, the animals in these situations tend to suffer from poor nutrition. It’s not uncommon to die from starvation.

These animals get into fights over territory and are frequently injured. Untreated maladies and mental distress from constantly fighting doesn’t end well. It’s not a good environment for them to be in. 

Compassion. Experience. Respect.

Cleaning Process

We work closely with the owner to ensure these risks are understood. Once that step has been reached, we continue with our cleaning process:

  1. Any items that have been highly contaminated by animal waste will be removed
  2. Cross-contamination safety protocols will be in place as a precautionary measure
  3. Once removed, the items will be disposed of responsibly

Our professional cleaning crews will be able to transform the impacted area into an unrecognizable utopia. Ultimately, we want to leave the home as good as new. Your comfort and safety is our top priority. 

Community Outreach

At Bio-One of South Sound, we work closely with the Steilacoom, WA community to ensure a safe and clean environment. We strive to make a difference here.

For many years now, we’ve been proud to partner with local authorities, charities and other groups. We offer them the most up to date cleaning methods and techniques to keep our area safe. As the owner, I, Tim Bruhn, can promise that you’ll receive the best help available from the professionals at Bio-One of South Sound. 

We respond 24/7.

    Kaitlynne W., South Sound, 09/2025
    My grandma and I recently hired Bio-One to help us clear out some rooms we were overwhelmed by. This is something we've put off for a while out of embarrassment but making the choice to reach out and get help from Bio-One and the people who work there was worth letting others see our embarrassment. Jillian, Ian and Tim were all absolutely wonderful to work with and were all incredibly understanding and kind throughout a very emotional process. The help they've given us has been genuinely life changing, words cannot express how grateful we are and how amazing everyone was through the whole process.

    When you read this review, don't think of it as a normal review, that people casually post. Please view this as a heartfelt thank you and as true and honest endorsement for Tim, Bio-One, and his team. We are truly grateful for the top notch service that Tim and his team provided for us in our time of need. Not only did he call us back right away, he squeezed time into his already busy schedule to take a look at the job and give full assessment with a fair and accurate quoted price. Once we agreed to move forward with the quoted service, it was scheduled and taken care of without any issues the next day. You are probably thinking at this point that this sounds pretty standard. Well let me assure you it was not by any means standard. At every interaction Tim, Bio-One, and his team went far above and beyond at each step. On top of that, the caring, compassion, and true field experience really shines through in all that they do. You can really tell that they are here to help you, truly care, view you as a customer yes, but more than that, as a human and not a number or just another job. Honestly I could go on and on but I think you get the point. For all of these reasons we will never use any other company than BIO-ONE, and give the highest of thanks and praises from our family to their family. :) If anyone needs a reference I would be happy to provide it, please reach out. Until then don't trust anyone but BIO-ONE! Thank you Tim and the Bio-One Team!

    These guys are awesome. Worked with Tim and Ian for a decluttering of my home, and they got us into a spot where we can better function.
