A single lightly crowded room sometimes can. A whole house with heavy buildup usually takes several days or longer, and short sessions suit many residents. The team can give a realistic estimate after it sees the home.
Usually not for the buildup itself, since many policies exclude long-term conditions. A policy may help with a specific event such as a fire, a leak or a sewage backup. Read the policy, call the insurer before work starts, take photos and keep receipts.

Avoid calling their belongings trash, saying the home is disgusting or telling them to just throw things out. Never move items without asking. Ask what matters most to them, listen, and offer to help at their pace.
Most often the resident or the property owner pays, and family members sometimes share the cost. In a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant. Some local aging services or housing agencies help in some places, so it is worth asking.
Yes. The resident decides what stays, what is donated and what is removed. Valuables, documents, photos and medicine are set aside first, and nothing leaves the home without agreement.
