I'm really thinking about doing this too. I have ADHD and I LOVE cleaning other people's messes! I'm a commercial cleaner right now so I have the necessary professional background.

How did you get started and how do you get jobs?

yes!! other messes pls just not mine. I just started posting on my local subreddits, and through word of mouth in my queer and mutual aid communities

It's so fucked! My room literally looks like a hoarder's house was bombed and now a homeless guy lives in the rubble, but I could clean the shit out of someone else's mess. My own is extremely overwhelming though. I have cords to things that don't exist anymore, boxes to things I haven't seen in 10 years, random antique shit I can't bring myself to throw in the trash, etc

cords and boxes can easily be thrown out to make space for your antiques :3 think about it youll never need those cord again and worst case u reorder it for $5-$12 (you probably wont need to)

My brain just doesn't allow it..I freeze up. Occasionally I can just throw everything I see away and make a huge dent, but then it's back to disaster within a month
