Biohazard & Trauma Cleanup: When to Call a Pro

What biohazard cleanup includes

Trained technicians handle situations involving bodily fluids, infectious materials, sewage, decomposition, and hoarding - using PPE, EPA-registered disinfectants, and OSHA-compliant protocols.

Common situations

• Unattended death or trauma scenes
• Sewage backups (Category 3 water)
• Infectious disease decontamination
• Hoarding cleanup
• Industrial accident cleanup

Why discretion matters

Our team uses unmarked vehicles and trained, compassionate technicians. Privacy and dignity are part of the service.

Insurance

Many homeowner policies cover biohazard cleanup as part of property loss. We document and submit directly to the carrier.

Why this is never a DIY situation

Bloodborne pathogens, decomposition fluids, and waste materials carry HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, MRSA, and other serious risks. OSHA requires specific PPE, containment, and disposal protocols - and the disposal itself goes through licensed medical-waste channels, not curbside trash. Beyond the medical risks, there are emotional risks: family members handling the scene of a loved one's death frequently face long-term trauma. Letting a trained team handle it is often the kindest thing.

Coordinating with law enforcement and coroners

For trauma scenes, our team coordinates with Madison Police, Dane County Sheriff, the medical examiner, and the affected family. We don't enter until the scene is released by law enforcement, and we work directly with whoever is handling the estate or property to keep the process clear and respectful.
