Hoarding in Kamuela Home?
Aloha! Hoarding scenes are dangerous and require professional services to restore the damage. Our local teams in Hawaii and Maui can help. Here is some information from the National Fire Protection Association about hoarding:
What is hoarding?
Hoarding is defined as collecting or keeping large amounts of various items in the home due to strong urges to save them or distress experienced when discarding them. Many rooms in the home are so filled with possessions that residents can no longer use the rooms as designed. The home is so overloaded with things that everyday living is compromised.
Why is hoarding an issue for the fire service?
- Hoarding can be a fire hazard, and many occupants die in fires in these homes. Often, blocked exits prevent escape from the house. In addition, many people who are hoarding are injured when they trip over things or when materials fall on them.
- Responding firefighters can be put at risk due to obstructed exits, falling objects, and excessive fire loading that can lead to collapse. Hoarding makes fighting fires and searching for occupants far more difficult.
- Those living adjacent to an occupied structure can be quickly affected when a fire occurs due to excessive smoke and fire conditions.
