Are these the UK’s messiest rooms? Do you have a room that could beat them?
The search for the messiest room in the country has been extended, and the winner will receive a visit from a viral crime scene cleaner to give the space a proper tidy.
The competition has been organised by self-storage operator, Space Station, in partnership with Stacey Foyster, a professional crime scene cleaner and founder of Cleansed. The initiative offers the winner a full deep clean, and the transformation could be life changing.
Unlike a traditional cleaner, Stacey has experience dealing with some of the most extreme and challenging environments imaginable, and says that no room is “too far gone”.
The competition remains open until Friday 25th July 2025, and here are some of the best entries so far:
1) Chelsey Ryder (34, Norwich)
Chelsey began redecorating her bedroom during the Covid lockdown, but was forced to sideline her project as her busy lifestyle took over.
She said: “I changed my career to safeguarding, which is full on, so I’m exhausted after work. I’m also a single mum to a little boy who will often wake me up in the night and want to get in my bed, so I don’t typically get the best quality sleep and am usually too tired to declutter and tidy. I want to be better at it.”
2) Karla Gold (39, London)
Karla has also faced a challenging journey in recent years:
“This is currently the spare room. It should be the room we are moving one of our twins into, but over the years it’s become a dumping ground for everything and anything. I’ve tried so many times to sort it, but it feels like a losing battle and I’m so desperate to give my son some proper space.”
3) Chris Fletcher (43, Poole)
Chris is eager to help his 74-year-old father reclaim his kitchen.
“This is my dad’s kitchen, he’s a proper hoarder and it is well out of control. He’s 74 and he struggles to live here. He needs help!”
Whatever your circumstance, however messy your room, simply submit a photo and short description of your space through this link to be in with a chance of winning a professional deep clean:
