It took me 8 years to help my friends clean their home. It wasnt garbage but everything else. We could've opened a clothing store, bookstore and a pharmacy from everything in that house. It was such a relief when we finished and they were able to sell it.

I was helping a relative with her “mess” one day, she turned on a fan and right behind it was a wall full of black mold. Within minutes, i got dizzy then could not hold my head up. I had to be driven home. It took me a few hours to get back to normal. Didn’t affect her at all.

😂 when you go to your buddy’s house and he doesn’t clean but asks you to eat out of his pan lmao😂.

Not a hoarder but I have clutter & a small house. I have a clutter purge every 3-6mths. My declutter tips- Watch Hoarders-gets me in a mood where I can be merciless getting rid of stuff. Start with utility rooms, kitchen & bathroom. Usually not many sentimental items so choices are about usefulness. I'm doing my kitchen today. Take before & after pics-very satisfying & gives you a sense of achievement. Make it a bit fun-put on music, have a drink or whatever puts you in a good mood. You will do more if it's not like a chore. Bedroom- I pull all clothes out, try on those I'm not sure if they fit & put in charity bag if not. Throw shabby clothes. EDIT cos I forgot 1. Stick to one room at a time so that you see a rewarding difference. Potter around in different rooms & it won't look like you've made any difference. That is disheartening.

I am so glad I am not a hoarder, my parents were to an extent, not dirty just odd stuff like a bag of little of wires. Took forever to clean out their house. I just lost my husband of 44 years three weeks ago. I will watch myself closely to see if I pick this problem up. Depression effects people differently.

Arthur is both completely insufferable and perfectly charming at the same time

January 2024. I got rid of a box and a big bag of stuff today. Clothes and dishes went to Goodwill. Art supplies went to a local seniors program. I have another pile of books and magazines for the library. Every day, I get rid of piles of stuff. My husband and daughter like stuff much more than I do. Tina, Al's wife

when i heard that she just new Jim and he proposed and was moving in. For me that was a red flag.

So we're not gonna talk about the ball gag hanging from his light chain in the bathroom? ROFL

I think I rather wear a mask than wear gloves.. hands can be washed .. . breathing all that stuff in , gross

Mandy needs an Etsy shop! She could be working full time getting so much money back.

Mandy's story: this flat is a costume department of a whole film studio! And what concerns the first man, Arthur, he needs to visit psycologist. as an avarage person I can see he doesn't really want to see his daughter and relatives in real now, he wants to live in his virtual past.

Mandy could have a great vintage boutique. She can cycle product in and out, make some money, and still enjoy seeing and putting her hands on new finds.

Oh, that audio tape was soooo important to him. If it was that important, wouldn't he have stored it in a special place?

It really is amazing how bad people can let things get. No hate, it gets overwhelming and as people age, it makes sense why people cant or dont want to clean it up. I wish everyone in these shows the best and happier lives, and I like the generally softer vibes to this show over the american one.

This man could be a dragon if this was fantasy.

It is amazing how hoarders are disappointed over not having family visit. It is disappointing, but make other arranhements. Why force people to slip and slide on paper rubble, breathe dirty air, sit among cobwebs or have a dirt cup for tea. Meet them somewhere. Puy on some fresh clean clothes and meet them for lunch. Hard to get your head around. My moms house became like this after her divorce, but I helped her and it is better now.

Arthur seems to think it’s funny and wonders why his daughter won’t visit. Really!!

I can only imagine how bad Arthur smells ,between the dirt and the smoking

Arthur, good going for being honest. Nobody else will admit to any laziness component in their mess. Watching from 🇨🇦 where one in ten hoards 👍👍👍

Hoarder is a kind of a neighbour you really do not want to have 🙈

Oh Mandy, I just really hope all those beautiful items are okay. So many hoards degrade the precious items in them.

My boyfriend has a friend who isn't a hoarder but he has not cleaned his house in years.The house is filthy. Dirty dishes, crud and guck all over the place. My boyfriend won't go inside the place so they talk outside. The man has severe depression since his divorce years ago. He won't improve his situation. It's a sad state of affairs.

the lady with all the vintage clothing is giving Kathy Bates somehow. Some of those are beautiful clothes, just getting messed up because it’s crushed by other things too packed together.

Even my children are taught to clean up after themselves at 4 years old. But a 70 year old man can't be bothered to pick up wet paper in his bathroom floor for 15+ years, and he thinks that he DOESN'T have a mental illness?

Met online and proposed 2 months after? That's... fast 😳

Странно, что движет людьми,чтоб так себя запускать и ЗАСРАТЬ квартиру или дом. Жизнь без смысла, веет какой то безнадегой.😱😵

The moment the bed fell😂 I have definitely been there.

This man should have been narrating books he is absolutely charming

If those busted up tapes are so precious to Arthur, then why have they been left to rot like that? These 'precious' items aren't treated as such by these hoarders.

If Mandy sold 10 items a day for the rest of her life, she still wouldn't have a livable space. JUST LET GO. Sell the items wholesale or donate them. You'll make less money, but your home will be livable.

Those two cleaning ladies had a really great personality. I'm sure it's difficult to deal with a Hoarder. But I myself understand how it can happen. I recently lost my mom and and she was always super clean about everything. But even though it's been 2 years. I can't seem to motivate myself to do really anything when I know it should be done

He look like David rodigan 😂

Arthur reminds me of alistar sim in the christmas carol, same kind of accent

Моя мама: Вещей не должно быть много, если вещь не понадобилась в течение года, её нужно выбросить. Я: выбрасываю баночку, которая стоит без дела два года. Мама: У тебя есть баночка вот для этого? Я: Нет, я её выбросила. Мама: идёт покупает точно такую же баночку))) До собирателя хлама мне далеко, для меня не проблема выбросить откровенный мусор, но я не люблю выбрасывать вещи, которые могут пригодиться. Нет проблем с тем, чтобы кому-то что-то отдать, но просто выкинуть - нет, я деньги не печатаю.

Thank you so much for your video.

The trash is just nasty.

This was a gorgeous episode.💖💖

"We are going to have to sort things into what stays and what goes. My prayers are being answered at long last". Guess who answers my prayers for a clean, safe, peaceful, welcoming home, Arthur. ME. A thousand little moments and efforts a day. ME!

My ex lives like this. I've tried to help him out. I've cleaned, organized, discarded stuff, etc., several times, but it always ends up like this again. Now he's gotten to where he'll go weeks without showering. 😢

Raise your hand if you want to just get a hefty bag and start cleaning this guy's dump! I'm gonna go clean my closet after this!

Arthur seems to be beyond help.

Please put those tapes in a tote for him. Even if the tapes won't play they still may trigger that memory for him. Momentos and important things need to be kept for progress to be made. It can be put in a clear case for proper display later.

I think maybe Arthur has a false memory about the daughter's hand print on the wall. It looks to be too big and too high for a child to make. Curious.

I am sorry, it is a bit of a mess is the understatement of the year.

Fashion collector, why didn't she just e-bay stuff, could have had a steady income

Lady collecting clothes, shoes etc. Should have a huge sale.❤❤❤she has beautiful things.

How can anyone just sit in that mess, they know it is a mess, but it just keep accumulating. Just don't care - I can't take it, the smell alone would make me sick 😷 How can they afford to keep buying? Surely it's a burden on the economy??? What's the point with Instagram, if you have no followers? Why sell there, it's like, okay no one wants it, I keep it!!!

Guy living if a fantasy world . Pig sty doesn’t do it justice

Arthur, apart from the hoarding is just so perfectly English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ❤

I hope Arthur meets a nice lady

Can you imagine how much more she will hoard if the new relationship ends?!

WHY DON'T YOU JUST PRIORITIZE SHOWING THE CLEANING PROCESS???

The smoking and filth. I can only imagine how nasty Arthur’s house smell!🤢

70th bday???? I thought he was in his 80s😢...OMG sorry, he's just lazy or crazy😮 I've seen plenty of hoarders but I don't feel anything for him but disgust...he probably has the newspaper on floor to pee on them

Another ancient video; Are you running out of new material?

I simply cannot wrap my head around hoarding. I just don't understand the "need" to live this way.

Arthur is very sweet but needs help. Shame

Poor

If THEY sell all This THEY get RICH ❤❤❤❤❤❤

if the tapes are that important to arthur, why did he not store them away carefully? It`s not fully understandable, if hoarders love their stuff why not organize it better, have more racks etc? other than that he and everyone is this show was very nice and positive, hope they feel a bit better now.

❤

I can understand hoarding to some extent, but not the filth....

… not gonna lie I am a bit like the clothing hoarder Like bad lol
