In this episode, we explore the complex relationship between hoarding disorder and the storage unit industry. We delve into the psychology of hoarding, discussing why some people feel compelled to accumulate and store items, often leading to the rental of storage units. We'll hear from mental health experts, and share stories from individuals who have struggled with hoarding. We'll also discuss the impact of this on the storage auction industry, and how professional bidders navigate these situations.
