Floyd grew up in a rural area, with an abusive father and a mother who looked the other way. His hoarding was triggered when his father had his childhood home and cattle ranch torn down, despite Floyd wanting to move back. The unsafe conditions in and around the Lava Hot Springs, Idaho trailer of the extreme hoarder have been brought to the attention of Child Protection Services. Now he must clear his hoard or risk losing his own three-year-old son, Charlie.
