What Is Involved In Crime Scene Cleanup?

Crime scene cleanup is a term applied to forensic cleanup of blood, bodily fluids and other potentially infectious materials (OPIM). It is also referred to as biohazard remediation and forensic cleanup because crime scenes are only a portion of the situations in which biohazard cleaning is needed. Incidents which may require this type of cleanup include accidents, suicide (or attempted suicide), homicides and decomposition after unattended death, as well as mass trauma, industrial accidents, infectious disease contamination, animal biohazard contamination (e.g. feces or blood) or regulated waste transport, treatment and disposal. Interior materials including flooring, carpet, walls and furniture may need to be removed and properly disposed of to comply with regulations. Very detailed, specific records and documentation will also need to be taken for state or federal requirements.

When Can I Begin Crime Scene Cleanup?

It may seem reasonable to begin cleaning a trauma scene immediately, especially when it is your property. However, you will only be able to do so when law enforcement has released the scene back to you. There is no timeframe for them to adhere to and it can take some time for them to complete their investigation process.

Crime Scene Cleanup Regulations

Certain rules dictate the handling and disposal of biohazardous materials as well as how a crime scene should be cleaned. States, municipalities and federal authorities such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) create regulations that must be followed.

Why Hire Crime Scene Cleanup Professionals?

Distance: Enduring a traumatic event is distressing enough. Having to clean up the aftermath can be triggering and emotional. It can be worthwhile to establish some distance between yourself and the scene to begin to healthily move forward.

Experience/ Training: While there may be no formal licenses or certifications to possess in order to complete a crime scene cleanup, there are definite regulations that must be followed, which are likely unknown to anyone outside of the industry. Having a background and understanding of how to handle such a situation is preferred in order to ensure the job is performed safely and correctly.

Chemical PPE Access: The chemicals, cleaning solutions and personal protective equipment necessary to perform a crime scene cleaning safely and effectively are not as readily available to those not in the industry. Attempting to use any other substitutes can result in less than sanitary results with higher risk of contamination and disease susceptibility.
