Last night, emergency services were called to a property in the west side of London. The call was made by a cleaner, named George, who had stumbled upon some peculiar items while clearing out the house. In an interview with Metro, George shared his initial shock at the state of the property, saying, "I was called to come and clear out the property, and let me tell you, there was so much stuff in there." He went on to explain that every room was filled to the brim with items, with no evidence of any decluttering in years.
As George began the tedious task of sorting through the mess, he encountered a dilemma. He had taken a load of bin bags and rubbish to the tip, only to be told that it could not be left there due to its radioactive nature. "I don't even remember what was in them," George recalled, "there was just so much rubbish." Feeling unsure of what to do, he made the decision to return to the property. "One woman was 90 and had passed away, and the other man was in a home," George explained.

George continued to share his experience, saying, "They're hoarders, it's possible that some of this stuff has been here for decades." He also mentioned that the items were scanned at the scrapyard, and anything that beeped was not allowed to be taken in. Upon arrival, police and fire services were seen at the property on Bentworth Road, with medics sifting through the rubbish inside the house.
Having cleaned many houses and properties in the past, George expressed his uncertainty about the contents of the property. "It's a council house, and you never know what you're going to find," he said, "but someone needs to clean up the rubbish." A neighbor, who wished to remain anonymous, also shared their shock at the discovery. "I've been sitting outside my house for ages," they said, "and someone told me there was radioactive material in there. It's worrying because their garden is right next to mine."
Describing the previous occupants of the house, the neighbor said, "They were very nice people, but they were serious hoarders. Their place was just full, you couldn't even move in there." They went on to explain that the couple was elderly, and that the woman had passed away last Christmas while the man had been in a home for a few months. "Nobody else was living there," the neighbor added, "I think they must have had their whole life in that house, and it looked like they never threw anything away."
The Metropolitan Police and London Fire Brigade have been contacted for further comment on the situation.
