The Man Who Hasn't Cleaned in 3 Decades | Hoarders

1 in 20 people have a problem with hoarding - this extreme compulsion to stockpile items or not throw things away can have a severe impact on your wellbeing.
Our dedicated team are here to dig people out from being trapped in their own homes.
In this episode: Arthur’s 2 bed flat is packed with piles of junk he can’t bear to throw away. A carpet of newspapers covers every inch of the floor and as a result, family and friends have stopped visiting and he even spent his 70th birthday alone. Amongst the mountain of rubbish is a clue as to why he can’t throw anything away. He’s worried that if he loses his things, he will lose a part of himself... For deep cleaning experts Caz and Tee this is going to be their toughest assignment ever.
Meanwhile, hoarder Khim Sim is getting married to her fiancé Jim but first she must clear her hoard so he can move in. Will it be out with the hoard and in with the new husband?
In London, Mandi’s passion for vintage clothes is out of control. A mountain of clothes, bags and shoes line every wall and all the floors in her house. It’s a mission to even navigate from room to room. When her hoard is valued at over £25,000 will she want to cash in or keep it?

    I don’t care if it’s a repeat, but this isn’t clutter, it’s filth. Arthur, there is danger, from bugs and bacteria.

    I hope Arthur is still okay. I really liked him. He has a good soul and should be cherished.

    There’s no way I would drink a cup of tea made in Arthur’s kitchen. He lives inside a biohazard of filth and bacteria. The fish blood palm print on his kitchen wall from decades ago is a fitting touch.

    Eww- that’s nasty. Who could lay down in that mess? I’m embarrassed for people to come to our house- definitely would not invite anyone in to that mess. Good for Mandy!!! I think her business would be great

    If the audio tapes were so valuable , with the voices of his parents on why did he let them get strewn and damaged all over the place. It doesn't make sense.

    It's beyond me how people have the time to shop so much, not to mention the willingness to spend so much money. But that's just me.

    I just don't get hoarding. Clutter makes me feel like I'm being suffocated and it psychologically chases me. Anyone else feel this way?

    Yes, it's difficult to think in a mess. It's hard to plan and organize to get things done when you're surrounded with chaos and filth.

    I’m with you. I couldn’t live like that. But from what I’ve learned from watching these hoarder stories is those who suffer from this disorder associate their piles of stuff (even if it’s nasty or garbage) with being safe and protected like a cocoon. So losing it or seeing someone remove it causes intense anxiety and fear.

    You must be very short of content; you keep pulling the wool over our eyes thinking we are too stupid to realize that they are all REPEATS.

    What bothers me is when people can admit that they are hoarders and have a problem but say I’m not going to make any sacrifices and they also in the same sentence say that things have to change yet things won’t change and get better if they don’t make sacrifices and yes I get that hoarding is a mental illness and that is not just as simple as cleaning but the person has to make sacrifices and put in the hard work and make the changes that can help you in the long run

    The problem with vintage clothing is that women are built differently in todays world unless u r a size 0 or 2

    See you have to send them somewhere else and just do it because they say they are ready but then when they start going through stuff the memories start coming back and they change their minds

    Hoarders need to learn that the accumulation of things that aren’t used is such a waste and detrimental to the environment in the long term. Humans over consume where does it end up? Landfill 😫
