- Removal of waste that may carry germs, handled as regulated medical waste when needed
- Donation and recycling runs so usable items go on to be used again
- Clearing paths to the stove, sink, bed and bathroom so daily life works again
- Cleaning around mold, droppings and pest damage, and noting when other trades are needed
