Crime Scene Cleanup Process
Crime scene cleanups can vary depending on a number of factors, including the severity and location of the incident as well as how much time has passed. While some sites can easily be contained, crimes involving guns, knives, or decomposition not only increase both the size of the contaminated area and extent of damage but also the risk for infection. To limit the spread of contamination and ensure everyone’s safety, our technicians wear full PPE during all cleanup services. The cleanup process can officially begin once we have received confirmation from TFD and TPD:
Assessment – Before cleaning, our technicians perform a thorough inspection of the crime scene to determine the size and extent of the impacted area and set up containment measures to prevent further contamination. Once the area has been effectively identified and contained, we develop and implement a comprehensive plan of action for the cleanup.
Removal of Contamination Source – The first step in the cleanup process is to remove all sources of contamination. This not only includes clothing and personal belongings but anything that has been impacted by blood or other bodily fluids. Porous substances such as carpet, drywall, and even subflooring may need to be removed if they have been soaked with blood or other hazardous fluids.
Decontamination & Cleanup – Once all sources of contamination have been removed, we begin disinfecting and cleaning all impacted areas and surfaces using EPA-approved disinfectant chemicals. This also includes any items that can be saved. We will make every attempt we can to save personal belongings; however, porous items typically cannot be saved and will need to be disposed of safely along with all waste at a state-approved biohazardous waste treatment facility per the ADEQ standards regarding biohazardous waste.
