2. Contain and protect
Crews put on PPE, close off the affected area and keep people and pets out. Air movement is limited so germs are not carried into other rooms.
3. Remove and clean
Visible material is picked up first. Soaked carpet, padding and other porous items are cut out, sealed and set aside, and the remaining surfaces are scrubbed.
4. Treat the air and surfaces
Disinfection and odor control come last. The crew walks through the finished area with the owner and answers any questions about what was done.

Yes. Many calls come from managers who need a unit made safe for the next tenant. The lease and local law decide who pays, and the crew can provide photos and records for the owner or insurer.
What should I do before the crew arrives?
Keep people and pets away from the area, and do not touch or wipe anything. Open an exterior window only if it is safe, and photograph what you can for insurance from a distance. Call 911 first if anyone is in danger.

What is biohazard cleanup?
Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal of contaminated material and the disinfection of the affected area. Crews wear PPE, remove what cannot be cleaned and haul waste by the rules. The goal is a space that no longer poses a health risk.

Often, yes. Many homeowners policies cover crime or death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain causes. Renters policies may cover cleanup of belongings but not the building. Call the insurer before work starts, take photos and keep every receipt.
