JUNK RESPONSE GUIDE
Why Odor Can Remain After a Property Is Emptied
Practical planning guidance for Massachusetts property cleanouts, junk removal, specialty handling and getting a space ready for what comes next.
Start with the goal
Decide whether the goal is simply removal, a broom-clean space, or a property that is ready for sale, transfer, turnover, renovation or occupancy. Those are different scopes.
Show the real conditions
Wide room photos, closeups of problem areas, stairs, exterior access and anything involving pests, droppings, odors, liquids, chemicals or damaged materials help establish the right response.
Plan the finish
If contamination or heavy residue remains after contents are removed, post-removal cleaning, HEPA-detail work, deodorizing, disinfection or other specialty treatment may be appropriate.
