How A "Hoarder's House" Is Deep Cleaned | Deep Cleaned | Insider

- Mack Leighty from Midwest Magic Cleaning specializes in cleaning the homes of people with hoarding disorder. In this episode of "Deep Cleaned," he tackles his largest project yet: a six-bedroom house, including a basement that hasn't been entered in three years. Barbara Fodor (Clean With Barbie) and Bonnie Ashdown (A Beautiful Mess) join him as they spend three days decluttering and sanitizing as much of the house as possible.
They cleaned the household with permission from the family and with knowledge of the individual. Though the cleaning makes the house safer and more liveable, experts recommend specialized cognitive behavioral therapy as the most effective treatment for hoarding disorder. If you or someone you know is struggling with hoarding behaviors, visit the International OCD Foundation's website to find help.

How A "Hoarder's House" Is Deep Cleaned | Deep Cleaned | Insider - Розваги
Midwest Magic Cleaning, A Beautiful Mess | Extreme Cleaning, and Clean with Barbie are the UA-cam channels for these three heroes who don’t wear capes. ❤️
I think there's also this channel run by a crime scene cleaner that also will clean hoarder houses. I forgot the channel name, but another identifiable feature of his is that he is obsessed with Scrub Daddy and the Scrub Daddy spinoff cleaning products.
@@peggedyourdad9560yes we gotta mention those angels
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
@@cleanwithbarbieThank you for what you do! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You forgot Aurikatarina -the women is an angel
It's funny how Mack's voice sounds so different in this video when I'm used to his close up narrations that include a lot of "suck it" and "I usually spin kick the mess until it evaporates . . ." lol. MMC is the best.
Right!? Like his videos usually get me laughing but his voice here is kind of soothing to me. 😂
Lol yes I noticed that too. The bravado is absent here and it's hilarious.
@@professionalpainthuffer 😅that was so funny!
YES! So strange LOL!
I doubt they got his permission for this video I've sent him a link. He's been having a lot of trouble with people copying his videos.
Watching Mack of Midwest Magic Cleaning changed my life from one of overwhelming clutter to one of actually enjoying tidying and organising almost as a hobby. His no-nonsense but non-judgemental sympathetic and supportive approach, along with his great methods of breaking down tasks so that they no longer overwhelm, have given me a huge sense of reward and accomplishment of taking control of my surroundings for the first time in my life. His bizarre hilarious oddball sense of humour, coupled with his enormous insight, make this channel absolutely unique and stand above all other cleaning channels currently on UA-cam. However, his support of Clean With Barbie and A Beautiful Mess is also really awesome and those ladies also do great work. All are recommended, but Midwest Magic Cleaning is by far the king. Anyone who wants to spin-kick their clutter into oblivion should follow Mack. Because that's just how he rolls, son.
Agree!
Mack is so insightful and kind. I love his sense of humor and I look forward to his videos every week! He’s the spin kick king of the Midwest!
I started cleaning my house a few years ago. It's horribly piled up, dating back a couple of decades to when my grandmother (mom's mother) died, then mom's best friend died a month later. After that she had no energy to clean and things just gradually piled up. I didn't even live here for much of that period, but my having to move back home due to poor health didn't help any, since now we had to cram much of my stuff into the house as well.
Much of the mess is mom's stuff, and she would _not_ go through it. It's sad to say, but the progress I've made (and it's significant in the rooms I've managed to work on) wouldn't have been possible if she were still alive. I started in the combined kitchen & dining room area when I realized that most of the stuff taking up the dining room part was clothes. Most of them were hers and I threw away the worn out/stained stuff and gave the rest to Goodwill. For dad's clothes I found, I threw out wasn't worth keeping, but let him decide if he wanted to keep the rest. What he didn't want went to Goodwill as well. As did much of my old clothes I found in that pile. I did keep some stuff for sentimental reasons, but very few things fell into that category.
Cleaning wasn't fun, it hurt my back horribly, but tackling it as a set of smaller problems definitely helps. You also have to keep forcing yourself to clean until you make that first big breakthrough. Once it's happened, it makes continuing a _lot_ easier. I literally spent a month washing dishes almost every single day to clean everything in the cabinets (dusty) + what I found on the counters or in a pile somewhere. That wasn't remotely fun, but seeing all the dishes clean and neatly stacked in the cabinet still makes me happy a couple of years later. Doing the glasses was especially nice, since they went from noticeably dusty to clear and shiny.
My dad's bad about piling stuff up. He won't break down boxes to throw away, he even leaves the plastic rings from six packs of colas piled up. I've started going through and breaking down stuff when I visit to gradually clean his house up a bit. That stuff's easy to do but can make a _huge_ difference. I take off all the recycling for both of us anyway (he handles my garbage), so I'll just fill up a box/bag of recyclable stuff and take it with me to get rid of later.
Your story is helping me stay focused as I am tryinv to make my passing as easy as it can be for my family.
Thank you for sharing✌
Love Mack…the ONLY channel I send super thanks to regularly.
I am a hoarder. It takes a lot of strength to admit that. Due to ill health, I had be in a hospital for two years. I had to let my flat mate and cleaning lady go through my bedroom and reorganize everything. I had to let other people touch my stuff!😢
But when I got home a couple of weeks ago, I was able to go through my overstuffed chest of drawers, and willingly
gave up a third of what was in my drawers!🎉 It can be done!😊
I'm proud of your progress!
That’s an amazing story of being able to ask for help and being able to help yourself. Keep it up! 🎉
Amazing. Proud of you ❤
Takes a lot to let other people into your space and touch your stuff, hoarder or not! Super proud of you!
So very proud of you! Keep healing, friend. ❤🩹
I'm in awe of these heroes; Midwest Magic Cleaning, A Beautiful Mess | Extreme Cleaning, and Clean with Barbie. Not only do they help people reclaim their homes, they do it with incredible respect and patience. They are also genuinely lovely people who share their great humor and tips with their communities.
"they do it with incredible respect and patience."
This is really the part that I loved. There's no judgement, just healing.
@@cthomas025
Yes, they are amazing heroes! 💪🩵
Can we all appreciate the fact that this team carefully looks through everything in the house rather than just chucking all of it into dumpsters. As someone who puts a lot of sentimental value on things and had people overstep and throw away my things, I really appreciate that they understand that and takes the time to actually think through what is worth keeping on behalf of their clients. Always rooting for you Mack and team! ❤
uuuuuh... 5:20 they actually SAY right out that they are throwing his stuff away without his permission and they know that his mind is going to implode when he gets home...
@@bmolitor615 That isn't what happened at all, he says someone without hoarding disorder would see the final result and be happy it's finally clean, whereas someone with hoarding disorder will feel loss and be upset even if they hired you to clean it. The end of the video even says: "The owner who hoards has started therapy and will need to continue treatment to avoid relapsing. The house was cleaned with permission from the family _and with the individual's knowledge._ Experts recommend specialized cognitive behavioral therapy as the most effective treatment for hoarding disorder."
@@bmolitor615 Rewatch that bit because that is not what Mack said. If you don't have the full story don't put words in people's mouths. The husband agreed and gave his wife permission to get help. They aren't just tossing belongings with no thought, and in fact, if you watched Mack's video, he doesn't bother throwing out the hoarded food in the basement because he doesn't want to trigger the man when there's more important areas to focus on.
@@ignota. sorry, kid, that's what he says.
@@bmolitor615 That's not what he says. You need to actually listen to what he says. He says that the person who hoards will probably not feel great that Mack has had to throw away so much things. That does not mean he doesn't know that there will be things thrown away. They explicitly say that the family have already cleaned things themselves and have already filled two containers.
I love how Mack is always so very aware of the mental aspect of it, and not just the cleaning aspect of it.
Yes, but is he qualified to deal with the mental illness aspects?
@@Janna773 You didn't watch the video? The end says "The owner who hoards has started therapy and will need to continue treatment to avoid relapsing. The house was cleaned with permission from the family and with the individual's knowledge. Experts recommend specialized cognitive behavioral therapy as the most effective treatment for hoarding disorder." Mack at no point claimed to be a therapist and wasn't there providing therapy, the person has their own therapists for that.
@@Janna773 He doesn't DEAL with the mental aspects. He understands that there are many mental aspects. As aileen said, he is AWARE of them. Nowhere did anyone claim he is the one treating the person.
So great to finally see this video! Mack, Barbie and Bonnie deserve so much recognition for all of their selfless hard work!
Yes ❤👍😘 they're amazing!🌻
I had issues with hoarding, recently kicked the habit a couple years ago. One of the silliest changes I made was only buying what I needed, if I was in the shops and needed one jar of pasta sauce, but they are on offer, I used to buy multiple, now I only buy the one. It’s a stupid change that really helped me. Thank you to the three in the video for treating these people with care and dignity. ❤
I'm supprised Mac didn't just spin kick the mess right into the dumpster. We call him Ole' Trash Spin Kick Jimmy down in Seattle
My friend saw him and went "Woah, is that ol' trash spin-kick Jimmy?" and I said "I dunno, let's put some trash out and see if he spin-kicks it - I bet he does!"
@@turtledude83 ❗
As someone who lived in a hoarding situation, the relief of stress when you finally get help is unmatchable. Mack is a hero, as are all who help people in these situations. A clean up can be life changing and life saving.
Except this is the FOURTH time for this house. That is totally unreasonable. They are obviously not getting rehabilitated or changing their lives at ALL.
@@vjhreeves if at first you don't succeed try and try again.
Yes, the hoarder needs intensive therapy; if he's refusing to try to change, then he's just being extremely selfish toward his wife and toward the people who have worked incredibly hard at cleaning up his mess, now for the 4th time. It appears as though he isn't even participating in the cleanup.@@vjhreeves
I don’t know if this was mentioned in the video, but these lovely folks do this cleaning work FOR FREE. ❤ They’re all amazing.
I think people don't understand that hoarding is actually a sign of other mental health issues or a mental health issue in itself. It's rarely got anything to do with the actual stuff itself and it's deeper than that. It's an addiction like any other and represents something neurologically and emotionally to that person and serves a purpose of comforting and escaping from troubles.
100%🙏
I think a lot of us do, but don't like to face the reality of having a family member whose mentally ill. I've seen this across my wider and close family and it was especially hard in my immediate family. Two siblings and a parent with various disorders and hoarding being the chief issue. I gutted,deep cleaned and renovated two of their houses singlehandedly because of their resistance to having strangers inside and am currently doing the same in my parent's home. Accepting that it is a mental issue and seeking help is the first major step towards getting a better quality of life for those affected. The second and hardest step is maintaining their treatment and that takes the most effort.
These three cleaners totally understand that, and will hopefully help others realize it too. Mack is one of the most compassionate people on YT, and cleans with the knowledge that what he is doing could be completely necessary again in the not far distant future.
There's a spiritual component that is overlooked. Demonic strongholds over the mind is at the core of this issue. This can stem from familiar spiritus in the family tree that take advantage of spiritual portal openings in a family member's life.
@@bertuccigirlThere is a definite link between hoarding and a diet of loads of ultra processed foods…. However, many mental health workers are still not connecting the dots. Eating more plant foods that have not been heavily processed CAN make a big difference in many a hoarders’ life.
Mac is a sweetheart. He does it for free because he knows otherwise these people will never get help. Midwest Magic Cleaning is his channel here on UA-cam and his videos are the best!
Yay, I have been waiting. Congratulations and great job to Mack, Barbie, and Bonnie. Insider, thank you for showcasing our cleaning heroes.
Mack at Midwest Magic Cleaning has the biggest heart in the world. He loves helping people, with no judgement and no criticism. He has really helped me change my feelings about my Mom and her issues.
I’m a long time viewer of Mack and Barbie, they have helped me so much with my cleaning. I’m disabled and have depression, but the hints and tips that Mack and Barbie give have helped me so much. I now have a clean home. I love these two and I’ll give Bonnie’s channel a go. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💝
This is the "cleanest" hoarded house I have seen. So many of the things are actually useful.
Have been waiting for The Insider on their collaboration. They are three of the most giving, compassionate, hard working heroes out there who deserve far more recognition and sponsors.
I've been waiting for this. I wish Insider would have mentioned Bonnie and Barbie more, as well as mentioned their channels. I feel like they we kind of an after thought in this piece.
If they're happy and love it, I'm happy. Great job to everyone involved, including Emily, who wasn't even mentioned. That's Mack's wife.
Best of luck to the family of the segment.
i love mack's channel!! so happy to see him featured on here
👌Yes, he's one of my favorite UA-cam people. So compassionate and non-judgmental.
@@cleopatracatra2097 i started working my first job, cleaning houses, at around the same time that i started watching his videos and they were a huge inspiration to me. id go to work excited to help people! he's a really cool guy and im happy to see his work amplified like this
I'm so excited to see this video!!
Mack (Midwest Magic Cleaning), Bonnie (A Beautiful Mess) and Barbie (Clean with Barbie).
They all do a GREAT job!!! Love what they do and am very thankful that they do what they do. ❤️❤️👊
Midwest Magic Cleaning, A Beautiful Mess, & Clean with Barbie are three wonderful You Tube channels worth your time and applause. You will be inspired, amazed, and in complete awe of the work these generous and judgement- free cleaners do. You’ll see their sweat and commitment, but some how their halos are hidden. Thank you Insider for sharing their story. True heroes.
All my love to this crew and everyone in this line of work. Coming from a family of hoarders, it's so overwhelming and heartbreaking to live this way. It can also be incredibly difficult to ask for help. Appreciate you all ❤
Wow - I knew it was a lot from the bits Mac showed, but the angles a procameraman gets really captures not only the mess, but the scope of it - the full overwhelm and even almost the full smell-o-vision.
Amazing clean. Amazing clip! And also amazingly well-done interview - to get the prime points, this real, takes a lot of footage we don't see. A lot of prep beforehand. Great job - I watch MMC all the time & you brought an even deeper perspective of the work. I thought I was just a wimp. To see him struggle made me feel better, lol😂
I love Mack's UA-cam channel. All three of these amazing UA-camr's are worth checking out. They give their time, energy, and expertise all for free, and they even spend their own money towards the clean-ups quite often. Amazing humans❤
I can understand her condition....me and my mom also have this type of behaviour.... but i was able to overcome the behaviour this year only...i was able to narrow down the items i store for the future and now the house is super organised and less stuff... i was keeping my grad one school books and even the function badges and name tags, I'm 25 years old now and i was able to just overcome my emotional attachment to those stuff now only
Same here. I'm 31, I've been through many purges over the years. My mom has much stronger attachments though so it's very difficult and I haven't been able to get her to see anyone about it but I'm gearing up to give it another try :)
Great job, seriously. It's not easy and it will be a lifelong struggle but you've made a massive leap forward!
I disagree with someone in the comments saying you will have lifelong struggles with this. I can assure you that you are saving yourself from future struggles. Starting addressing this at your young age is clearing the path for your future and creating new neural pathways in your brain. You're training yourself to think about why you don't need to keep something rather than why you want to keep something. Great job making positive changes in your life so young.
The lady wasn’t the hoarder, it’s her husband
I've been waiting for this to come out! These 3 cleaners with angel wings deserve every bit of praise we can throw at them. Mack at Midwest Magic Cleaning has especially good insight into the minds of hoarders. His channel should be required reading/viewing for anyone planning on working in the field of psychology. Barbie has the courage of a lioness, she goes into homes that are infested and would give most of us nightmares, i don't know how she does it. I'm not as familiar with Bonnie's channel, but she seems to have fantastic organisational skills and a big heart. A big round of applause to everyone who worked hard to make the clean-up happen. Best wishes to the family, I pray they will be able to get all the help they need to maintain their home. Thank you Insider for covering this issue.
The "afters" were amazing! Wow!! Such a beautiful, stately mansion with gorgeous furniture just being smothered to death by stuff.
Mack, you need a wagon, trolley, dolly, something to help transport things, and save your back.
Brilliant piece, thank you! These folks donate their time and efforts to those who need it most, and who have no money to pay for their services. They are true heroes. Really wonderful. 💜🙏
I LOVE all three of these cleaners and I watch all three of their UA-cam channels!!! They are all amazing humans and truly exceptional people!!! I am so thrilled that Insider did an entire episode dedicated to them and the wonderful selfless work that they do for those in need.
Names of channels?
@@jayasmrmore3687 UA-cam Channels - A Beautiful Mess, Clean With Barbie, and Midwest Magic Cleaning.
So glad the owners getting therapy for the hoarding. This guy is doing the Lord's work 👍🏽👍🏽
Midwest Magic Cleaning is the best cleaning channel on UA-cam! 😀
This was great 👍 Thanks, Insider for showcasing these three amazing people who work so hard just to help others who are overwhelmed by their lives. There's really no way to express my admiration and respect for Mack, Barbie and Bonnie. They are loved❤❤❤😊
Midwest Magic Cleaning, Clean with Barbie and A Beautiful Mess are amazing channels!! The owners and operators of those channels are sincere and have a huge heart for helping others. They all deserve more subs and views!
That was great!! Midwest Magic Cleaning is my favorite UA-cam channel. He works so hard and he is so understanding of hoarders.
👍
This was so well done! I am so proud of you guys! It was nice to hear your insights into hoarding, instead of the trauma and drama prevalent in so many other shows. Thank you for being you❤
Except it is trauma for the hoarder, that's what they were saying. It is an aspect of this disorder that doesn't need to be hidden.
What you aren't seeing is the trauma created. These extreme cleans ARE traumatic, it's even mentioned in here. Shows like Hoarders, which combines the extreme clean with specialized cbt, shows the challenge of changing the hoarding while cleaning the hoard. Yes, there is a lot of drama. That's just part of the process.
Give that man a cape! He's a Great American Hero!!!
Beautiful house!!!!! It is crying!!
I have been following Mack at MMC for while now. He’s a lovely man and has a great family. I’m so happy for him to get this recognition due him!🎉🎉🎉
Commenting for the algorithm because I love these people ❤
Very well done piece. Mack, Barbie and Bonnie are absolute heroes: such big-hearted, hard-working and compassionate people who change lives one room at a time.
Congratulations to all three of you for being featured here! I was so excited when I realized, “hey, I know them!!” …well, sort of 😂
So proud to know Mack, Barbie, and Bonnie. And to see how they have helped so many people with their hoarding and cleaning problems. They truly are some of the most kind hearted folks you will ever meet ♥️
They must have been preppers to store so much food. You guys are doing an amazing job
I watch Mack all the time and he is an amazing person. Since this show I also watch Barbie. Great people. I haven’t looked up the other channel yet but I will. Awesome job. Well done.
It's great to see them calmly taking on this big challenge. It's amazing because I can't even bear to keep things I can't use or doesn't have a very sentimental value. I either give it or throw it right away.
Kudos to these wonderful cleaners!
Bravo! Well done! I know you guys were exhausted. Thanks for sharing this journey with us Mack, Emily, Barbie, and Bonnie. ❤️
Thank you Insider for featuring these wonderful people. Mack, Bonnie and Barbie are so good at what they do. The physical work required to do these cleanings and the respect they show toward the people they help is awe inspiring.
Great to see humanity in action!
It's so great to finally see this beautiful transformation! I'm grateful to Insider for showcasing these people who work so hard to help people for FREE! ❤
Love you all 3 of you! Dream cleaning team so much heart ❤️
It’s easy to scoff at these people with disorders but even people that don’t have them often find it extremely difficult to take things out of their house for many different reasons. Volunteers that help hoarders are true heroes that will often never get any recognition.
So proud of the team! Mack, bonnie and barbie did a fantastic job. Im hoping the owners continue the clean out.
Love seeing these folks get recognition! Thank you for helping people!
Thank you, Insider, for telling us about true American heroes, who genuinely help people in need for free. I love to watch Cleaning with Barbie, Midwest Magic and Beautiful MESS. Barbie, Bonnie, Mack, you're my heroes. ❤️
Congrats Mack, Barbie and Bonnie for an excellent job done well!❤❤❤
Love Mack and Midwest Magic Cleaning UA-cam channel! ❤❤❤
Yess!! so happy they're getting the deserved recognition!!
Somebody needs to donate full body massages after that one!! That house was packed. But I've watched Hoarders and seen much worse. But they bring in a team of people to clean it up. At least they didn't have the person nit picking everything they went through.
I hate that show (Hoarders,, not MMC)! They treat the home owners with such disrespect--showing up to a house with dump trucks and a film crew all for ratings. I think no amount of after- care therapy is worth the trauma and distress they put people under. Mack may not be a licenced therapist but he shows more empathy and understanding than those so-called professionals.
I love Midwest Magic Cleaning channel
Thanks to Insider for this video! Big thanks to Mack, Bonnie and Barbie for all their hard work. I am obsessed with their UA-cam channels!
I’m now 67 years old and have found myself three times in my life, with literally nothing except two plastic Woolies bags, of belongings. It is an incredibly scary, frightening experience, believe me. Because of this I have found myself with a bit of a hoarding problem. Lots of people laugh at me, but I’m the person they come to when they want something, tools, appliances ect ect. They’re not laughing now it’s all gone, they’re complaining, loudly! It’s a very complicated situation.
Wow what compassion. We need more people in the world like him. As well as the ladies with their local cleaning companies. What great attitudes.
What a huge job! Just overwhelming!
I'm a FAN!! How can you not be!!?? These 3 people (including their helpers & family members) have changed the lives of so many people!! Wonderful job!! Y'all are truly hero's in my book!!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
How wonderfully sympathetic and understanding this was. My father was a hoarder, that was incredibly difficult to deal with 😔
They did and amazing job! I'm a huge fan of Mack and Barbie, and I'm getting to know Bonnie. As someone with hoarding tendencies myself, it's a terrifying experience to let strangers into your home and have access to your things. The owners are very brave.
Well done to you all. I’m delighted the owner is getting therapy. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and peaceful 2024. Mary, Joes wife 👏💪👍💐🙏
Awesome work! Love watching MWMC.
I have become a faithful follower of Mac and his family, they really care about the families they work for, Mac has a deep understanding of hoarding disorder and does his best to not cause the ones responsible for the hoard any more distress. There are more episodes to this house on his UA-cam channel, Barbie and Bonnie also bring so much compassion to those they work for. These are the kinds of people that restore my faith in humanity. God bless the owners of this home, I wish I was a neighbor, because if there is ever a disaster, or unexpected problem, these are the people that will be prepared.
These cleaners are such a blessing to so many. Love their channels.
They did a very great job and helping this family so much!
I grew up in a Hoarders home and it's tough. Without the help of cleaners or mental health professionals it's just not possible to make this a home again. I lived like this for so long and really underestimated how it affected my psyche as a child growing up. I am diagnosed with depression and OCD myself, and adapted some of the hoarding behavior, but luckily not that severe like with my parent. It's not the need for hoarding stuff per se but more a mixture of feeling overwhelmed with cleaning, and my OCD telling me to space out areas that are to "contaminated" to touch (everything that comes from outside for example since I have a problem with public spaces).
This year I had a burnout at work and a mental breakdown and went to a clinic. There I learned how much living in my hoarder-parents apartment affected me, and How it made be a person who seeks to fix everything and everyone. Someone who takes rather care of other people then themselves, and that this is how my depression and OCD started in the first place. Because I felt like I could never escape other people's expectations of me. Sine my therapy at the clinic I have now started taking a step back from my parent and see that it's their responsibility to work on themselves. They haven't sought out therapy and I don't expect them to do so. I for myself come along slowly, but have started to throw away old stuff and clean my home so that I can finally feel free again. It's exhausting and I still have lots of therapy and healing from my burnout to do. But it's a start.
My advice to people who have hoarders in their lives is this: Be empathetic. Don't blame them. Support them in finding help with a mental health professional and a cleaning crew. BUT if they absolutely refuse to do so or acknowledge to get help, it's okay to step back and prioritize your own wellbeing. It's a sickness and should be treated as such, but the person with the disorder needs to want to change in the first place. It doesn't have to happen overnight. It doesn't have to move to slow. But it needs to start somewhere.
That said, I hope that everyone who needs and wants help, gets it ❤.
Great work, Mack, Barbie, and Bonnie! ❤
I’ve watch all 3 of the videos. I knew Insider was filming too. You guys looked so amazing!!! Whoever sees this will have a better knowledge of hoarding and why and how. And then, what happens at that point. Incredible video! Well done! God bless you all!
What MMC and all the other extreme cleaning youtube channels do is so amazing. Hoarding is such a terrible disorder, not just because of the mess but the harm it does to the hoarder and their loved ones. I have seen so many people suffer because someone they love struggles with hoarding. Giving these people an opportunity for a fresh start, without charge, can be so life changing and I have such a deep respect for what these people do for others.
That home is gorgeous!
Love Midwest Magic Cleaning, A Beautiful Mess, and Clean With Barbie! They all do an amazing job cleaning hoarded homes. We need more people Iike them! ❤️ ❤👊🏻
They did an amazing job
I have watched several of their videos before I found this one and they do an awesome job. I don't know how they can go from one house to another and not get tired of it on a weekly basis.
These 3 have such big hearts for helping people! Angels on earth ❤
... they forgot to mention the legendary spin-kick technique! 💖
Wow, you can see that under all that stuff, it's a gorgeous house!
I am so proud of the person living there! You really are doing so much within yourself, and also asking and accepting help from others. I know it's not easy. You are amazing!
Seriously?? This is the FOURTH time it's been cleaned out. No growth or progress is happening.
Midwest MAGIC Cleaning SUPERHERO SQUAD! ❤🎉😊
Thank you Insider! Mack, Barbie and Barbie are three of the Best people in the world!
Beautiful!! 😭 😭 😭
Mack, Bonnie, and Barbie are such wonderful people. Love their work, you all should check them out.
These 3 are just heroes!
It's a beautiful modern airy home. So glad regular hired support is forthcoming to enable her to enjoy it.
Very well put together. The team was well represented and no way can these 3 UA-camrs together will see any challenge incomplete. Well done.
Mack, Barbie and Bonnie are heroes! 💙❤🧡
glad to see MMC getting some love, he's a hero without a cape
Love watching Midwest Magic Cleaning on UA-cam!
Midwest Magic Cleaning, great guy Mack and provides a few with a free wonderful service. He's a true professional and fun to watch.A Beautiful Mess and Clean with Barbie made them unbeatable even on this mess!😊Cheryl and my 🐕 Dixie in GA
Mack is the best! My family loves his channel!
You can tell that is was/is such a beautiful. What an awesome thing you do.
Much better, nice job
What wonderful people❤
All three of these amazing super humans (and Emily!) did an incredible job on this clean. What a mission! They are the kindest and most understanding people, just out there helping without judgement and sharing the process with those of us who enjoy seeing the results. Big love. 💜👏👏
