Speak calmly, start with safety and ask what they want to keep. Avoid blame and surprises, and agree on a small first step. Many people feel more at ease once they know who will be in the home and what will happen.
Often a lease or local housing or fire rules allow a landlord to set a deadline for safety. A tenant rights group, a code office or an attorney can explain what applies. A cleanup team can often work toward a deadline.
No pressure and no judgment, just a clear conversation about the next step.
