We were recently called to help homeowners who were tasked with getting a house ready for selling. Upon arrival, we stepped into a very narrow hallway – narrow because of the collection of random objects that formed “walls.” There were stacks of books and newspapers, a collection of cardboard boxes filled with items that the previous owner didn’t want to throw away. You could see dishes, lamps and paper bags littering the floor. We could barely squeeze through doors to reach other rooms. There were mountains of clothes, towels and sheets on every bed.
