What Owners Want to Know About Homicide Cleaning in St. Anthony
What happens to belongings and keepsakes?
Crews set personal items aside and clean what can be saved. Items soaked with fluids may have to go. The team tells you what it finds, so you decide what matters.
Do I need to be there during cleanup?
No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.
Is the family expected to clean the scene?
No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.
How do homicide cleaners clean up a homicide?
They seal off the area, wear protective gear and remove soaked flooring, drywall and furniture. Hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. Waste is hauled as regulated medical waste, and the air is treated for odor.
Can homicide cleaners work in a rental or apartment?
Yes. Landlords and property managers often get cleanup done to make a unit safe for the next tenant. Crews contain the work so other units are not affected. Lease terms decide who pays.
What should I tell the insurance company?
Say what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and which documents are needed. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.
