You really can't. The person has to be deliberate and choose to stop. My mom was a hoarder until the day she died. No manner of assistance or persuasion on my part made any difference.
I have been for the last 11 years since moving off grid. It is a necessity when living above 10,000ft with wind and snow in the winter and it's minus 40掳 outside. A nut a bolt, a spare solar system component, an extra belt for the snow mobile etc, possibly stored in a shed for years will eventually be needed when you need it most.
With this freedom comes a lot of personal responsibilty and hoarding 'stuff ' is a big part of it. :)

You stop others from hoarding by taking their big piles of stuff, and keeping them for yourself.
Hi Mrs O'Hara ... I sell nothing .... takes way too much time ... slows me down ... so I keep it, use it or remove it

No, but had a sister in law who was and still is as far as I know.
I don't think you can, because she has been kicked out of many places and still never learns

Chantou a hoarder is one who collects stuff and then their house becomes so full of junk and garbage its unlivable. There are shows on tv about this.
