1. About Matt Paxton
Extreme Cleaning Specialist
TV personality: “Hoarders”
ServiceMaster Spokesperson since 2013
Matt Paxton is not your typical organizer. When Paxton started Clutter Cleaner in 2006,
his intentions were to focus on cleaning houses for grieving widows and relocating seniors. He
quickly found himself sought out by extreme hoarders and now he and his crew clean out the
messiest homes in America. Paxton is just a “regular guy” who understands both hoarding and
addiction issues first-hand.
Paxton and his Clutter Cleaner team have cleaned over 300 hoarded homes and have
developed a “no nonsense” style of helping aging seniors and hoarders alike. He once said in an
article, “Because we started with family, we don’t view anyone’s things as “junk” to just be
removed. We understand that there’s a reason you have everything and that some things are
more difficult to part with than others.” Paxton is a featured organizer on A&E’s Hoarders and
speaks nationally on hoarding and senior relocation. Matt has also written a book titled, “The
Secret Lives of Hoarders” for family members and the general public to better understand
hoarding. He and his wife Sarah are currently living in Richmond, Virginia with their son, Cooper.
