Debbie doesn't deserve to see her house empty because she didn't get rid of anything.

"with the storage problem solved" it wasn't solved, she just insisted on renting storage units she can't afford. there are people on this show who got in over their head and are willing to get rid of stuff and then there are people like debbie who just need to be put on a boat for 2 weeks while everyone else empties their house. they won't even notice 90% of the stuff is gone because they never use any of it.

Her poor grandson. He looked so hurt. She never said another word to him. A good, loving kid like that is pure gold. A treasure. And she threw him away without a second thought. And she didn't solve a single one of her problems. Her hoard is now in storage boxes. She had someone die alone in a hoard and she is well on her way to doing that, too.

Frankly, they did this woman no favors. They should have stuck to their principles and told her, “Nope. This isn’t what we contracted for. One of three things is gonna happen here - either we take this stuff away as planned (option one) or we take it back into the house and dump it back in your bedroom, living room, kitchen and wherever we can find room (option two). If you don’t do either of those and you don’t want your stuff put back into the house, then we’ll unload your stuff into your front lawn and you can make your own arrangements to deal with it (option three). What we are NOT going to do is unload this stuff into the lawn and then pay our people to transport and then load it into storage for you. That would be your choice at your expense. You have 5 minutes to decide. If you don’t have an answer after 5 minutes, the default will be Option three and we’ll start unloading the trucks onto your lawn.”

In all of these I’ve been able to found compassion for these people. But this woman is insufferable. That poor grandson having his grandmother sit and throw a tantrum over her wanting her wardrobe done because her grandson isn’t a priority. Such entitled behaviour, this team came to help you lady because the state YOU let YOUR house get into. Get away with it lady

Real sad that strangers on KZbin care more about her grand son's feelings than she does. Quite a despicable character overall, at 68 it's too late for a wakeup call or change so imo she can stuff it

Believe me I know from experience when your close relatives including your parents say you aren't important to them - THEY MEAN IT . You just need to move on to not let them take your entire life away ..

[@suerobinson844]

We have shows in Australia. The difference is everything is boxed and put into a hall on tables in order so the hoarder can see it all. The home is empty. Repaired, painted and re decorated over 3 days. Trucks take away donated goods, rubbish is removed and treasures are restored. The home owners usually keep 30 percent of their belongings.

[@jenniferdaulby5519]

I'm an Aussie too, and I reckon the 'take it all to a hall' is the best way too. I think some of these people get embarrassed about having their 'precious' stuff on their front yard and can't concentrate on the sorting & decisions process.

[@celestewatson4874]

Yes yes yes. A few sh I ws in usa years ago took it all to sort in empty retail spaces, held garage sale there, cleaned & repaired house. Hoarders could see the mountains of whatever item and make better decisions vs on their own front lawn

One of the most selfish hoarders I have ever seen and she actually made me angry. The way she got outraged at donating unused shoes to charity is despicable. I have a hoarding problem (not on the level of these people) but I donate stuff all the time, used or not. She will probably never wear those shoes, let someone else have the opportunity to wear them. And the way she spoke to be grandson was horrible, he took time out to help her. Just leave this crone to her 600 shoes and cut her out. They don't need that toxicity.
