“I was so grateful that they were here. That they finally came and started the cleanup,” Joyce Zoller told CBS 2′s Hazel Sanchez.

Zoller was thrilled to see a dumpster outside of her home in Neponsit, on the Rockaway Peninsula. Crews were finally on hand to clean out her neighbor’s house 19 months after it was flooded by Superstorm Sandy.

Zoller said that her cries for help were fruitless until now.

“I just pushed every button that I could push, and I’m just grateful Hazel, for all that you’ve done to help,” she said.

Last week, CBS 2 showed viewers disturbing pictures of moldy garbage piled up inside of the house that had been abandoned by its owner after the storm.

City records said that HSBC bank took ownership when the home went into foreclosure. The bank was issued multiple violations for allegedly leaving the home to rot.
