The safe disposal, removal and disinfection of bodily fluids, blood, tissue and other hazardous materials after an accident, crime, death, sewage backup or hoarding situation is biohazard cleanup.
Bio cleanup, trauma cleanup, bio hazard cleaning and biohazard remediation describe the same work. Deep cleaning alone is not professional biohazard cleanup.

Call any hour. A cleanup specialist can walk you through the process.
People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.
Calls for emergency service are taken around the clock, while unmarked vehicles keep the situation private from neighbors and building personnel.
Photos of the work, notes on its scope and disposal records are prepared for your landlord, insurance company or the state victim program.
You and your family receive care during a difficult time, without judgment about neglect or hoarding. Your photos, important papers and keepsakes are placed aside.

You explain what happened. You and the technicians agree on the scope after they inspect the scene and take photos.
Plastic sheeting isolates the affected area and stops contaminants from reaching additional rooms.
To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.
Every surface is cleaned and treated with EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectant.
The odor source is treated using ozone, hydroxyl or air scrubbers, and the vents are also examined.
Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.
The area is checked, including ATP testing where needed, so the space is back to a livable condition, and you get photos and records for your claim.
Your own contractor or a vendor working with your insurer can replace any removed drywall or flooring.
Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles and keep noise to the level the building allows. The property manager might need to give access to areas shared by residents.
