ALEX ! CONGRATULATIONS !
You’ve passed half a million subscribers !
I’m thrilled for you ! 🎉🎉
“I wouldn’t sit in the balcony.” Patrick FTW! Best understated comeback of the day
That was a gem!
I agree. After Alex's rapid-fire groaners, this was a breath of fresh air.
He's so hawt....
Oh, Alexander, I laughed out loud at your description of the 'demon bear with a wand'... exactly what I thought!!!!
I'm assuming that the editing goofs are part of Alex's greater descent into madness. Tomorrow's episode will be a 5 hour loop of Scooby Doo impressions while sorting through Christmas items, and Halloween's episode will be Patrick naked at the hotel in the dark, animalistically eating about 200 pounds of Halloween candy from 1978 with Alex mysteriously nowhere to be found...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so afraid it might be true!! Melissa needs to come with a straitjacket!!!
🤣🤣🤣
I'm playing this while working and I thought it was my imagination! I'm sure he'll fix it after some rest.
I thought it was something Halloween related and i was very worried about a jump scare.
I was thinking it was a Halloween thing-descent into madness kinda thing….
I have to say I’ve never seen a house so full of stuff this clean. At least there appears to be no damage to the house itself.
Yes, when you hear 'hoarder house' this isn't the image that comes to mind.
My Grandma's Sister's husband packed their house so full of old newspapers and books that it actually twisted the frame of the structure! Everyone like him absolutely needs a reality check, whether they want it or not. Once you get to 60 years old, do a complete inventory of the junk you're living with and get rid of everything you're never going to live long enough to use.

IF you've filled your house so full of stuff that it would take THREE lifetimes to use it all, acknowledge the truth of the situation and get rid of it. That's all.
I agree, I’ll be retiring in a couple of years and want to spend some of my newfound time purging closets,cupboards and cubbies. Then organizing what’s left so I don’t have to spend so much time trying to find things.
Someone may have already commented on this but the bias tape thingy is not a tape dispenser. It is a fabric store display stand for packages of bias tape. Bias tapes are long strips of fabric cut bias to the weave and folded. A person uses them for binding edges when sewing. The divisions in the stand were for the different colors and sizes of the bias tape.
Alex, take care of yourself. I can hear the fatigue in your voice. Give yourself some kind of reward (cookies, ice cream or just your favorite energizing music) daily! We want our favorite hoard buster to thrive. 🌺
😂😂😂
Dealing with this MASSIVE amount of stuff in such a short time period is insanely overwhelming. Especially when you spend the entire day sorting, and it doesn't even look like you made a dent. The owners packed an entire lifetime away, and Alex is trying to get through it within a month. Not to mention the long hours Alex has got to spend editing these videos. Take you time, take some breaks, keep your sanity.
@@charlesdeens8927 Looks like several families worth of lifetimes.
Patrick seems such a calm person and perfect for this kind of adventure
That's very true. You need serenity in your soul before wading into the middle of an extreme situation like that one. Maybe he's got some angels holding him up when he's nearing his limit.
One would need calm to deal with Alex's energy level, unending puns and dad jokes!
@@Bibliophyllida the dynamic between them really makes me laugh especially in the mornings when Patrick clearly just wants to be left alone with his coffee.
@@TheOriginalMaxGForce b no
Just gotta deal with what's in front of you one step at a time. You'll get where you're going eventually...even if you do hit a few bumps along the way 🙂
I would've just taken down the blinds, opened the window, removed the screen, and passed all those flats of cans out the window. It's how we used to pass our groceries into our apartment. Our parking space was right near our kids' bedroom so every Costco trip we'd just open the window and remove the screen. A lot better than schlepping everything around the building to the back entrance to get to our door. Just a thought.
So ingenious!!! Excellent 💡
That was my first thought too. But, was it an upper floor room?
And mine
That was my thought too.
I hope you keep your childs window locked as it's in a parking lot🤗
It was the garage.
The owners made the right call to sell the content. They got good money for it and save themselves months of trouble and pain. This is really hard work and you need expert knowledge to be able to do it that quickly. Imagine googling each and every object to see if it's worth something. You would need years to finish.
My theory is that the former owners were buying garage sales and just packing that day's findings into a box and stacking it. Hence the randomness. These were not all things from their own household.
Yes, what you would call 'garage sale hoarders'.
@@lilianmcguigan9240 lol
Yes, they were Yard Salers. Collecting "treasure" and hoping to sell at their own yard sales. Alas, when you take in more than you can get rid of, you get a full house.
Probably abandoned storage lockers too
I get exhausted just watching. It takes a special kind of person to be able to do that kind of work. I'd be overwhelmed. But these hoarder homes are my favorite videos.
There's a lot of confusion on my end because in the beginning there's a part from the previous video, then you get back to your bins of bottles and wondering how much they'll sell for and a few minutes later there's the footage of the bottles again! You're also searching for Patrick twice.
Just an editing issue. Hard to do with longer videos.
I thought I was having intense deja vu, lol. Glad it's not just me.
@@GGOAT2019 Yeah, same! I even went back to see if I was losing my mind or not!
Can you say Exhausted !
@@dom19945 I understand that, but it's end of the day for me and tired, so I was really thinking that I was making things up or something.
Opens like a scene from Fargo. ❤
The randomness of the contents of the boxes reminds me of what's in boxes at estate auction sales. When auctioneers empty out a house they put a few good things in a box and then add miscellaneous items to get rid of them. So the bidder gets the collectibles they want plus alot of random filler. Maybe this homeowner was addicted to auctions and had garage sales to get rid of some of the excess. The family would probably know how the owner acquired all this stuff. I'm glad to see some of the good stuff finally.
Spot on! It's got to be that! Too much randomness.
Exactly. And that's why my mom dreaded Dad's occasional excursion to an auction. Way back when, he liked putting bids on "mystery boxes" when a store closed out or moved. This is why I have a shoe box full of 60-year-old embroidery cotton. Still good, but awfully slow to use up.
“Still haven’t found the kid that lived here…….” That got my attention 😂
Patrick is a Saint to put up with your "torture" lol!!
Keyword of this series: "Junkalanche." Used in a sentence: "Run! It's a junkalanche!"
Not a bug, 😂 a FEATURE! Imagine how tired you would be… clearing a household driving for hours, eating heavy restaurant good, then trying to edit a huge jumble of footage.
A FEATURE I say! 😊
Right - I thought it was halloween groundhog day lulling us into a false sense of security before Patrick makes a ghostly appearance :)
Or Alex just wanted to check if we are paying attention 😉
Agreed! It’s was weird, but sorta cute.
@@victoriabyrne4303 Every time Alex would say "where is Patrick?" I expected to see Patrick come around the corner with a sheet over his head!😂
I think the editing at the beginning of this video shows just how tired Alex is. The first box was in the last video and parts shown twice, it is a little worrying and he still has to get all the good stuff back to Castners and sorted by December. Alex needs a big shed to sort in and take his time where Castners can then come in and auction from there to take the pressure off.
Having had some doubts about Alexander's ROI at this house, based on the limited information from his updates, I now predict he will be happy with the profit he makes. This series is entertaining and shows just how much energy/time is needed for the task. Enjoying Patrick's humour and admire the great work ethic they both have. I also enjoy reading the comments where people help with items, like the speakers Alex couldn't find in his research, that someone has suggested may be Altec Lansing. Alexander and Melissa must have thick skins reading through some of the comments telling Alex what he should/ought/needs to do... someone telling him to get "wifey" involved with sorting at their home was one of the most startling!
i dunno, still looks to me like he paid for the dubious job of cleaning the place out. the owners scored big, i think. 20k and all the expense they saved clearing the house.
@@donsurlylyte He's going to make at least 3 times what he paid. He's making a good living while putting in hard work.
If this series on YT does as well as his other hoarding house series and the videos reach a million views, he will make a pretty tidy sum on the videos.
Pretty sure she's a teacher. She has a day job she can't just drop!
I think people should grow some thick skin, dont be bothered by a comment like that. People are too easily insulted nowadays.
It's such an Alex thing to consider that burning magazines might not be appreciated by the neighbors. Most people would not think of that and only think of the fun they'd have. This is why I love this channel - Alex teaches me to be a better person.
I was actually surprised at the size of the backside of the house. Now I'm even more amazed at the amount of "stuff" you have to go through! Thanks for another interesting chapter, loving this series ❤️ 👍
So - boomerangs do not always come back. Out of three styles, only 1 is designed to come back! Never thought this info would come in handy!😋
Thanks for starting my day off with some fun. If you happen to see this - you might put a note in the title or comment that there are some editing issues at the beginning. Some may recognize previous scenes and not stick it out - but there is plenty of new content after a few repeats at the beginning.
Yes. I quit watching because I thought it was a repeat.
I don’t expect your editing to always be perfect, and I enjoy your impressions and “crazy” stuff the most. I especially like to see belongings sold or reused, instead of it all going to a landfill. Keeps me watching!
It really is a miracle that house didn't burn down, and also a wonder the floors didn't cave in.
That is what I was thinking too 😂.
"Return policies on boomerang."..........GROAN!!!!!
I’m laying here recouping from knee replacement surgery and you have given me a lot of laughs today! THANKS!! 😂😂😂😂😂
The big metal syringe is actually a cake decorators tool. 👍
Congratulations for sparking the interest of over half a million people who are now subscribed to you. Your skill with sorting through boxes with one hand is unmatched and your knowledge about all sorts of items is amazing!
Alex, congrats on hitting 500k subscribers! Every time you clear out a house, I go through my cabinets and rooms with a detached eye. The thrift stores thank you.
I'm tired for you, but I can go back and watch prior episodes in this series and actually see that a great deal of progress has been made. But oh, how much has to be done. Since I don't have to help clear out the house, I absolutely love this kind of series, It's looking for treasure.
OMGOSH!! I laughed so hard at the demonic bear joke!! Thanks!! I needed that!!
With all the different things in some of the boxes, I wonder if the residents bought things left over from sales.
Definitely!!! My friend had that problem. The "treasures" won. We both got too old to keep trying to sell it. She needed to have an auction
The evolution of this project is nothing short of amazing. One thing I'll bet you didn't think of :weighing yourself BEFORE the project started then weighing yourself AFTER it is all done. Patrick too. I am willing to bet you will lose a pound or two from all this painstaking work. ADHD or not, you both have been real troopers throughout this whole thing. I will follow this to the end. I think you are going to find LOTS more treasures there. 😊😎💖
This is your Ground Hog day video 😂
I remember how fun it was for me as a kid to open that Planters peanuts can with the key attached to the bottom. So much nostalgia for me in these videos! Thanks for taking us along with you on this adventure.
I just hated when the metal strip you were winding up decided to unspring itself, would scare the crap out of me.
And cans of SPAM!
@@mjmooney6530 spam,spam,spam,spam 🎶
This is my favourite hoarder house so far. So many interesting things and all kept organised.
You can tell when Alex is tired, he screws up .. But that ok he's doing good things
It's so sweet how camera shy Patrick is.
No, not sweet. Annoying. Makes poor Alex carry the load fro info and no chance for the spark and laughter that he and Hans shared at past hoards.
@@candacedolan4857 - Like everybody has the exact same personality?
@@kristineguetschow9134 Yep, much better world when you have choices.
Agree, he impresses me as quiet and calm. Everyone can't be extroverted, I think Alex said he's known him since they were teenagers
He has his own channel.
The (spelled just like this) "Astronout With Raer" box may be the only one of its kind. Possibly the toy as well. I'm sure there are a number of rabid collectors of early space-themed toys who would be ecstatic to buy it.
Yeah, I’m thinking he could make a grand or more off of the two. I’m no expert, but a quick eBay search showed me the originals are hard to come by and expensive.
Yes im sure they only made one and then only printed one box.....
@@joshr9417 That’s not what he’s saying. In case you were unaware, old stuff tends to get destroyed over the decades.
A couple of editing problems with some footage repeated. Enjoying the series though! I look forward to seeing what else you find.
Editing is not easy. Grace and mercy.
He knows you enjoy seeing this footage, so he shows it to you twice. Alex is a nice guy like that. Thanks Alex.
I was confused. Lol
BLUEPRINTS… home made journal supplies🤗💕🦋
I thought I'd caught the screen and skipped back .
It's so cool how they've marked most of the boxes and seemed pretty organized.
Oh, Alex. You must have been exhausted when you edited this video. All is forgiven, still very enjoyable, thanks for the effort. I hope that you find a pirate's chest full of treasures. Hello to Patrick.
Oh my goodness! I really loved this episode. I got so excited when you found that "robot". I could almost hear that old tv show, Lost in Space, and the robot saying, "Will, danger, danger"! LOL I laughed so hard at that painting turned sideways, with that little demon standing beside a tree! Whoops! Turned right side up, its a guy in a boat, by the shoreline! LOL
Robbie the robot -me too
"I've been fermenting too long..." Made me laugh
Totally thought that was a "demon bear" too at first!!! eeks. Too funny!
if those where the blueprints for the house, you could check for hidden rooms filled with things. Or at least see how big the attic is.
I continue to enjoy this deep dive into a full house. Very clever of you to test your fans by subtly inserting previously shown video into this episode.
When more furniture is moved everything should go faster for you guys. Hope the furniture sells well.
Just a thought… When Patrick is waiting for something to do, he could unwrap things in boxes, readying them for Alex’s keen eyes! 🤗💕🦋
Great idea!!!
I know that Patrick reads the comments. Maybe he will tell you when he was "waiting for something to do." It was probably, "During the car ride from the motel."
I was thinking the same thing .
He may be doing that - off camera, LOL
I saw him doing that very thing in this video.
I am absolutely loving that you are doing another house clear out ! ❤!
As much stuff that is left, you have made a huge dent it it. Enjoying watching the hunt for valuables!!
The more you go through that house the more I think these people were into resale and the prices you find on articles are their prices they were selling things for. The stuff they thought were not as valuable were stuff they would sell at garage sales . Otherwise I can't see anyone having that much stock boxed up . Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
I think they were shopaholics, justifying it, saying they will resell. Hence the hoard. At least someone put things in boxes.
@@dudeorduuude5211 I think that is a Bingo!
@@dudeorduuude5211 you are probably 100% right .
I have to admit that all this "stuff" gives me anxiety. I'm happy that there are people like you Alex who likes going through box after box. I would have thrown in the towel long before now.
You and Patrick are doing a great thing! Eating an elephant one bite at a time is the only way to tackle this massive “collection “. You’re the right man for the job too, Alexander. Your ability to go through each box sorting to keep, donate , recycle or trash is the why you are successful with a situation like this that would overwhelm others. Excited to see what’s in the antique section.
It would be interesting to hear more of the back story of this house. It looks like it would have been impossible for anyone to sleep there. Was it possibly just used as a warehouse?
Alex only found one bed and that was after digging through boxes that were on it. It has def been a warehouse for quite a while.
Yeah it's all storage. No signs of day-to-day living in there
I believe the house belonged to a hoarder who either had to move out of the house or had passed away so Alex purchased the contents of the house from the owner of the property. Hoarders don't live like a typical person. There was food in the kitchen cabinets and meat in the freezer that had thawed so someone was actually living there in that mess within the past year.
That's the most organized hoard I've ever seen!
This is a huge endeavor. But you are the man for this job + Patrick. It's amazing to watch.
The bias tape sewing display was a nice find. That’s a very collectible brand.
Yay...more Hoarder House!! I can feel MY adrenaline pumping here in NYC!!
Loving this series Alex! It looks like complete organised chaos at the moment😂 I’m desperate to see the first room cleared 😂
Hello, the bottle caps are a great find!! Lots of people would buy them to do the bottle top resin tables 😊
I could never do this. It’s overwhelming. Kudos to you, Alex, for diving in. You need a mini vacation after this is done.
😆😆Alex, your surmizations crack me up 🤣
I can see Melissa's eyes rolling at a couple of points as she watches this video🤣🤣
The ability to sort that stuff is mind boggling. I'd have paralysis by analysis.
Wow! So much stuff…you should do well in sales, but holy moly your work is endless!
Your progress is shown by how bright all those rooms become now that the windows can actually let light in. :P Very fun to watch and so happy to see all this didn't end up in a landfill.
I almost never laugh outloud at anything like this but I certainly have with this series! Hahahaha!!
You and your dad jokes! Also love how pure you are and considerate of others.
I bet the people that sold it to you are smiling the whole time, because that is so overwhelming.
Also because they probably took out thousands of dollars worth of whatever was easily found sitting around...the jewelry etc.
@@AnniePA1960 someone else made a good point that there were no signs of anyone actually living in the house- i.e.. One bed found and it was buried with stuff. It looks like this house has just been used for storage for a very long time...I am inclined to agree, and thus I suspect the personal belongings like jewelry were likely wherever the people who used to live there, where currently living. So I suspect maybe an older couple or a widow who left this home and moved into an apartment or assisted living. I doubt he's going to find a whole lot of jewelry - just a hunch - that it was already moved out.
Amazing how seeing some Vintage Tupperware Seal-N-Serve Bowls brought back some fond memories! I remember having them for my children back in the 70's. Nice video!
The Fluffy Snowman Chalk drawing sings: “Bottles n Cans-so just clap your hands, clap your hands!” I’m so glad you bought another hoarder house-love these videos! Thank you!
Where it's at! 🤣
Yeah, I think these folks wanted to be like you, Alex but they just didn’t have the wherewithal to get it done and it got away from them. Add in hoarding and this is the result. Smalls, aka garage sale items could have been their bread and butter for all the collectibles that take longer to sell.
Of course they decided to do it all from home which obviously got the better of them.
Still, they’re pretty good hoarders. The biggest thing you’re having to deal with is dust. It doesn’t even seem like there’s a lot of breakage, or mold. You can’t see the floor because of boxes not because everything is everywhere.
One wonders if they’d have had as much trouble selling off the good stuff if someone could have helped them?
At least to me their mentality seems considerably different than the hoarders we’ve seen and you’ve shown us.
I even think the bottles and cans were and effort to save until they became collectible.
I’m betting in their day they had great garage sales. It’d be neat to find out if the guy who talked to you knows about the sales.
I wonder if they ever cataloged all their stuff? Probably not.
Incredible that someone could collect that much stuff, seems like enough for a hundred people. Alex needs to put a storage building on his property so he can take his time sorting all this stuff on future house clean-outs.
He said he won't do that. He doesn't want anything at his home to sort.
@@cahatlady I know, it's just a thought. Things have changed now he doesn't have the store to use as overflow for purchases like this; rushing things to auction definitely won't get him the most bang for the bucks he's shelled out. This is an overwhelming hoard - I wish him luck.
The description of the bear but it was a boat had me rolling with laughter. You needed that too with all those boxes, boxes, boxes. Good luck Alex. You can do it .
This definitely looks like the hardest clear out yet. Just the sheer amount of stuff is astounding!
Obsessed with this series!
Good score on the cans and bottles refund. I wonder how many people will dumpster dive once you leave for the night? I'd be tempted!
The first part of this video reminded me of Ground Hog Day! lol
The Mickey Mouse box used to have a record player and the arm/needle was his arm. I had one that I got handed down from my brother. Loved that thing! It was still working great in the 90s without ever having the needle changed. Wish I had kept mine!
Goodness gracious Alex! Looks like you're finding amazing stuff. I bet the final profit would supersede the Musicians house.
I hope so😊😊😊😊
Not a chance. Madame Rac's house had a ton of real jewelry and cash and of course the silver bar ! This place will show a profit, just not the kind of money e got from the Musicians house.
@@justmeiniowa LOL... I forgot about the silver bar 🤦♀you're right!
Have enjoyed every episode of this venture! So grateful to be taken along!
I just can’t imagine collecting all this stuff. Surely no one could have lived in this house the way it is.
I am encouraged that you are finding some valuable antiques😊
Boxes of old mens magazines make good money at auction here in the UK.
I just love it when you buy the whole content of a hoard and sort it in the house 🥰 They are my favorite videos!
1. Series are always interesting
2. There is so much to see!
3. I love stories, which is why I love hoards and abandoned houses! Antiques, collectables, personal items (things that tell something about a person) etc.
4. The satisfaction I get when you tackle and organize a MASSIVE amount of things with such ease and enthusiasm. I can't even get myself to organize my pens...
5. I KNEW you are a fellow ADHD! I always find it so much easier to watch other ADHD people's videos. You process things the same way. (unless you were only joking before about ADHD 😅)
Thank you for another video! Can't wait to see more :)
My goodness, Alex !! Soooooo MUCH STUFF!! Thanks for sharing this with us! 💜💙💜
I know a local guy that does what that owner did. He goes to yard/ garage/ estate sales, online auctions, thrift stores and the like. He has at least 50 boxes of VHS tapes and is convinced they are worth lots but, never puts them out in his own yard sales. He has a 52 foot trailer almost packed with furniture and DVDs plus an 80 foot mobile home he started putting things into along with 1 tons and 2 motor homes stuffed.
He says its his retirement fund, I told him he needs to sell it before he dies to be a fund. He's not emotionally attached to any of it but buys way more than he sells.
I'm pretty sure that red shaker you found (at 39:40.) and said is antique is actually from Avon's series of "Cape Cod" red dinnerware in the 1970's. I sold Avon then and it's at every estate auction in America. 🙂
Another great video. You are so funny, when you found the boomerang and joked about the return policy was made us laugh as well as other funny things you joked about. We are always entertained. Thank you.
Enjoying the video.. I'm polishing silver trays and goblets while watching this video, so my brother can sell on eBay. I like Patrick's calm laid back personality. You two make a good team.
WOW! So interesting and fun to go thru the boxes with you. So many surprises. Love your wit
Hey dear hearts, I almost didn't watch this one cause I thought by the way it started I had seen it before. Couple of repeats happening in there. lol Luckily I do pay attention to your numbers. Hi Pat. Glad your back. Alexander I know your probably tired but you don't have the dark eyes you got from The Potters house. Probably helps a little less dust like there and Madame Racks had. Love love love your videos. Good hunting you two.
I am so enjoying this series! I love to see old things, but it always amazes me that ppl can hoard like this and be comfortable in the place they live! It would make me anxious until it was cleaned up since I have ocd lol! Hey btw tell Patric that he is a very handsome man! Both of you are handsome but Alex has a gorgeous wife and kids who I adore! Y’all be safe and careful! We love you all!!!
Yes, be safe around the "cougars" Patrick!😆
@@JeanStAubin-nl9uo funny 😁
great finds today!!! planet robot, that astronaut thing, and the oil can!! not to mention the money from the cans and bottles!
You are hilarious today! Thanks for the laughs.
I sure would like to shop at whatever Goodwill/Salvation Army/Charity store those donationed items end up in!😄
Yeah, they put very high prices on things, do not think they will be cheap, :>(
I smiled when you told Patrick the boxes should get lighter as you open a box of records / albums🤣 I’m also feeling that labels on boxes are misleading….but all the same interesting with such a surprise …. As for finding a buyer for bottles…no need to apologise…you did the same with all the clothes at musician house… a wise decision- there will still be sooooo much for the auction! 🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧💕jane
Omg, I just love the jokes that come out during each video!
Re: return policy on Boomerangs, you can return them, only if they come back!! 🤣
My Cousin and I never found the one I threw, way back in the 70's 😞
So glad to see Patrick has a dolly!
