•Check your local churches to see if they have volunteer groups to help clean out these types of homes.
•Post on Freecycle.org
•If you don't see a company listed in your area, some people have reported finding companies to clean out these types of homes by searching "crime scene clean-ups" or "meth lab clean-ups."
