It includes blood cleanup, removal of soaked porous materials, disinfection, handling of broken glass and debris, residue removal and odor control. Crews also sort personal property and document the work for insurers.

Can a vehicle be cleaned after a crime?

Yes. Cleaners treat seats, carpet, headliners and vents, remove soaked materials and disinfect the cabin. Vehicles are often processed by law enforcement first, so confirm it has been released.

What should I tell my insurance company?

State the facts plainly: what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and what paperwork it needs. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.

Can a landlord or property manager hire a cleanup company?

Yes. Owners and managers often book crime scene cleanup to make a unit safe for the next tenant. Lease terms and local law decide who pays, and an attorney or tenant rights group can explain the details.
