My wife and I feel very blessed we found Bio one. They took the time to listen what we needed done and offered some ideas that we over looked. They didn't judge the situation we were in. The crew was very friendly, professional and cared about the job we needed done. I definitely recommend BIO ONE.

Joel Akers conducted an onsite review of the scope of work and provided an estimate to completely clean out three houses and six garages in a small community in Northern Iowa. A collaborative agreement was reached and Joel and team started work approximately a month later. The scope of work was accomplished in five days. The team worked steadily at the job and were professional and friendly. Joel arranged all large dumpsters needed for the job. Basic cleanup was accomplished at each work site. Each day they had us review certain items per our criteria to determine whether to hold or dispose. The volume of work accomplished was significant. I recommend Bio One; they are easy to talk to and work with!

Three months ago, a friend of mine had a stroke. As I helped him with urgent matters, it came to my attention his home needed serious attention. As my friend learned how to walk and talk, Isaac and his team helped with mold remediation, deep cleaning and trash cleanup. My friend is now able to return to his clean, healthy home. Highly recommend BioOne of DSM!

Bio-One did an awesome job! I hired them to clean up my old, 100 year old, creepy basement which isn’t the type of thing they normally do (they are used to much more difficult jobs!). The owner came by for a free estimate and got my basement cleaned the next week. The staff were respectful and kind. They set out all of my belongings, let me go through them, and disposed of the items I didn’t want. Most importantly, the basement is squeaky clean now!! Would recommend!

Bio One is an excellent company. They show up on time and get the job done. Issac Gallatin and his crew in Des Moines are very good at what they do. They cleaned trash, mold and rodent droppings out of my aunts home for me. Would have been an insurmountable task without them. I highly recommend them. No job is too dirty or difficult for them.
Jill Willrich
They were quick, efficient, and incredibly kind. They were even willing to work around my 2 cats. If you need help getting your home back under control when the trash gets too much I 100% recommend them. My apartment feels brand new

Dear Joel/Bio-One: Just wanted express the tremendous satisfaction that we have for the services you provided (consultation, mold remediation, recommendations) & gratitude for the way you assisted us during such an emotional/stressful time. We were immediately able to set up a time when you could come asses the property/structure & estimate treatment. Your professionalism in dealing with such a multi-faceted situation was readily apparent, as you shared knowledge & compassion. Possibly the most important reason why we chose you/your company to help us in the "reclaiming" of our mother’s home was how personable & honest you were with us throughout the entire process. You were absolutely terrific in listening to our concerns & giving thoughtful advice on how to better deal with issues. God Bless! V.U.D.M.K.W.

    I would highly recommend Bio-One Cleanup. I had a home that was in very bad shape and would have taken me months to cleanup. In one day that had everything out of the house and made my job so much easier. Joel and his entire staff were very professional during the job. They always made sure if they found something that may interest me to let me know before they discarded anything. Joel and his crew are excellent!!

    after making the call It was suggested that I refer to Joel as my friend when convincing a relative to have their home cleaned out after many years of hoarding. “My friend” Joel coached me thru an overwhelming situation. Joel and his team were wonderful to work with. Bio-One’s kindness and professional expertise got my family thru quite an ordeal. My family member has a healthy living situation now thanks to my trusted friend.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    What is Hoarding?
    Hoarding is a behavioral pattern characterized by the excessive acquisition of and inability to discard large quantities of objects that cover the living areas of a home and cause significant distress or impairment. 

    Compulsive hoarding behavior has been associated with health risks, economic burdens, and adverse effects on personal relationships. When clinically significant enough to impair functioning, hoarding can prevent typical uses of space so as to limit basic daily activities like moving through the home, eating, and sleeping. It can also put people at risk due to increased risks of injury, fire, and disease.
    Why Hire Bio-One of Des Moines To Cleanup Your Hoarding Residence?
    Bio-One of Des Moines prioritize concern for the well being of our customers and their families, always following our slogan, “Help First, Business Second.” Bio-One of Des Moines soundly reject the business-first mindset of other companies who see people and their families asking for help as vulnerable and exploit the economic opportunity. Our primary goal is to help people improve their lives and begin the process of moving forward.
    What Makes Bio-One of Des Moines Different From Other Hoarding Cleanup Companies?
    Bio-One of Des Moines sets itself apart from other hoarding cleanup companies in four distinct ways:

    Bio-One of Des Moines come to give on-site estimates, never blind, inflated estimates over the phone. This allows us to give an accurate estimate and scope of work.

    Bio-One of Des Moines do not give bait & switch quotes. Unlike other companies that lowball their estimates and then ratchet the price up as the job progresses, our experience and expertise allows us to give accurate estimates that reflect what the job will cost.

    Bio-One of Des Moines are truly a local company, the owners and employees all call the Des Moines area home, too. Other companies take your call from outside our community, and then subcontract your job out to some workers who are neither hoarding specialists nor trained professionals. Many times the contracting company does not even know the subs they have hired.

    Bio-One of Des Moines respond to a hoarding cleanup request immediately because we are locally based. We're not heading into the area, we're already here.
    Does Bio-One of Des Moines Share Information About Or Notify Any Other Entity Regarding A Hoarding Matter?
    Bio-One of Des Moines goes to great lengths to ensure your privacy and our discretion. For starters, we use unmarked vehicles and we don’t suit up outside whenever possible. We’re also good at gently, but firmly, shooing away nosy neighbors and we don’t answer their probing questions.
    Does Bio-One of Des Moines Offer Any Maintenance Or Follow Up Service After The Initial Hoarding Cleanup?
    Yes. Bio-One of Des Moines offers a regularly-scheduled maintenance program where Bio-One of Des Moines return to the residence or property after the initial cleanup and perform follow up services to ensure that it remains in the state it was when we completed the job.
    Do I Have To Get A Maid Service After You Are Done To Clean The Property?
    Yes. While the original hoarding cleanup will result in the removal of all necessary/requested items, the hoarding residence will still be in need of a thorough and detailed cleaning, due to the effects caused by the original hoarding situation. Bio-One of Des Moines offers a detailed cleaning program to anyone who's interested.
