Hoarding and squalor in Tasmania
Tasmania Fire Service runs a Residential Hazard Notification System for homes with severe hoarding, and recommends reducing risk first: unblocking exits, widening paths, and clearing around stoves, heaters and electrical items, rather than large-scale removal.
Anglicare Tasmania’s Treasured Lives research looked at what Tasmanians living with hoarding, and their families, need, and has called for regional networks and specialist case management.
