Types of After Death Cleanup Services
Bio Recovery’s local branch serving Hattiesburg offers a variety of professional services, including:
Biohazard Cleanup
Biohazards are any biological substances that pose a threat to the health of living organisms, primarily humans. They include blood/bodily fluids, tissue, human or animal waste, infectious diseases (e.g., C. diff or E. coli), or other harmful pathogens. Our biohazard cleanup services address the complete range of biohazards using specialized equipment, eco-friendly cleaning solutions, and a certified team of technicians to ensure in-depth sanitization and safe disposal of contaminated materials.
Suicide Cleanup
Following a suicide, family members face overwhelming challenges. Our team approaches suicide cleanup with the utmost sensitivity, understanding the emotional toll on the family and loved ones of the deceased. We meticulously handle the after-death scene cleanup, removing all biohazardous materials, sanitizing the area, and working to eliminate any lingering reminders of the event.
Homicide Cleanup
Homicide scenes present complex challenges, often involving law enforcement and comprehensive contamination. Our experts are trained in crime scene cleanup protocols, working efficiently to restore these areas once authorities have completed their investigation. We ensure all evidence collection protocols are respected while providing thorough after death scene cleanup services.
Unattended Death Cleanup
Unattended deaths, where the deceased is not discovered for days or weeks, pose significant health risks due to decomposition. Our specialized team has expertise in this area, removing all biohazardous materials and neutralizing odors to make the space safe for occupancy again.
Accident Scene Cleanup
Accidents resulting in severe injuries or fatalities often leave behind biohazardous materials. Whether in homes, workplaces, or vehicles, we provide exhaustive cleaning and decontamination services to restore safety and normalcy.
Decomposition and Odor Removal
Our team specializes in addressing the challenges of advanced decomposition, including bodily fluids, tissue, and pervasive odors. Our decomposition and odor removal services use advanced techniques to eliminate odors at their source, not just mask them. We ensure thorough remediation, making the area odor-free and habitable.
Blood Cleanup
Bloodshed, whether from an injury or other causes, requires professional attention. Our blood cleanup services in Hattiesburg go beyond surface cleaning. As licensed blood sanitation specialists, we sanitize and restore the safety of commercial, industrial, residential, and public areas. Our services include the cleanup of blood spills, gross filth, bodily fluids, and contaminated crime scenes. We're equipped to handle blood removal in homes, apartments, offices, businesses, hotels, and vehicles.
Our expertise in various types of after death scene cleanup, including crime scene cleanup, ensures that Hattiesburg residents receive in-depth services tailored to their particular needs.
Why You Should Hire a Professional
Attempting to clean a property after death without professional help can pose severe health risks and legal complications. Here's why expert services are necessary:
- Detailed Biohazard Removal: Biohazards provide unique challenges, and our technicians are trained to identify and eliminate all traces of biohazardous materials, including those invisible to the naked eye or hidden in the structure of the property or vehicle.
- Compliance with Health and Safety Regulations: We adhere strictly to OSHA, EPA, and state-specific regulations, ensuring legal compliance and safety.
- Emotional Support for Families: Our empathetic approach provides a buffer for families, allowing them to focus on the grieving process rather than the cleaning process.
- Proper Disposal of Contaminated Materials: We handle the safe removal and disposal of biohazardous waste, following all legal guidelines.
- Odor Elimination: Using advanced techniques, we neutralize odors at their source rather than masking them temporarily.
Professional services not only ensure thorough cleaning but also provide peace of mind during an already stressful time.
Risks of DIY Cleanup
While it may be tempting to handle cleanup personally, DIY after-death cleanup poses significant risks:
- Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens: Without proper protection, individuals risk exposure to a variety of dangerous pathogens, such as bacteria like C. diff, E. Coli, hepatitis, HIV, and others, as well as viruses, fungi, and parasites.
- Incomplete Sanitization: Improper cleaning can leave behind invisible biohazards, posing ongoing health risks and causing lingering odors.
- Psychological Trauma: Cleaning up after a loved one's death can cause severe emotional distress and a lasting psychological impact.
- Improper Waste Disposal: Biohazardous waste requires specialized disposal methods to prevent environmental contamination and legal liabilities.
The risks associated with DIY cleanup far outweigh any perceived benefits, making professional services essential. Bio Recovery's two decades of experience in biohazard remediation, combined with our compassionate approach, make us the top choice for after death cleanup services in Hattiesburg and the surrounding areas.
Our Cleanup Process
At Bio Recovery, our cleanup process is meticulous, but working with us is simple. For those facing the upsetting task of after death cleanup, here's an overview of our approach:
- Reach Out to Us Right Away: The sooner you call us, the sooner we can assess the situation and help review your options. We know what questions to ask about the incident, and we can work with the insurance company to determine if insurance coverage is available. We start this process immediately.
- Claim Submission: If property insurance is in force, we will submit the claim on your behalf and work to confirm insurance coverage before we commence work to help mitigate costs. Depending on the insurance company, it can take up to a day or so to confirm coverage, but it is often the same day. If there is no insurance, we offer significant self-pay discounts to help minimize the financial burden.
- Dispatch Technicians: We schedule our technicians to the site for the cleanup. We are usually available to perform the service within 1 day, or at whatever later time is most convenient for the family or property owner.
- Documentation: Upon reaching your property, our technicians conduct a comprehensive examination. We photograph the affected areas thoroughly, beginning with the exterior and moving inward. In cases involving crime scenes, we only commence our work after law enforcement has completed their investigation and collected all necessary evidence.
- Safety Protocols: We implement strict containment measures to prevent the spread of biohazardous materials. Our team dons appropriate protective gear before entering the affected area, ensuring both their safety and the integrity of the cleanup process.
- Biohazard Remediation: Using advanced equipment and techniques, we remove all biohazardous materials, including blood and bodily fluids. We apply medical-grade disinfectants in compliance with health and safety regulations to ensure extensive sanitization.
- Comprehensive Decontamination: We employ scientific testing methods to verify the elimination of harmful bacteria. Our process includes the use of specialized air purification systems and deodorizers to address both visible contaminants and unseen pathogens.
- Responsible Waste Management: We follow strict biohazard disposal procedures, safely removing and disposing of all contaminated materials in compliance with regulations.
- Verification: After cleaning and removing all biohazards, our technicians conduct a walk-through with a family member or property owner to review the entire remediation process and ensure complete customer satisfaction.
Bio Recovery understands that our clients seek a return to normalcy after tragedy. Our rigorous process aims to restore not just your space but also your peace of mind, helping you take the first steps toward healing. We make sure to maintain open communication with you, respecting your privacy and property—always.
Paying for After Death Cleanup Services
Losing a loved one is overwhelming, to say the least, so we strive to make the payment one less thing to worry about.

We are experts in managing the insurance process to help maximize coverage and minimize or eliminate the financial burden of a professional cleanup.

As we were waiting for our Biohazard team to arrive, we received a phone call. It was from Alex to say that they would be arriving later due to unexpected delay at their last job. He apologized very professionally and promised to work quickly and thoroughly once they arrive. Upon arrival at 11am, Alex introduced himself and his partner Oz and I lead them to the room needing their expertise. When their work was complete, all biohazard materials were removed from my room, and it was very clean and smelled fresh. Their youthful energy and professionalism were astounding and very much appreciated. For young 26-year-old men, they sure are an Amazing team and their attentiveness to my needs was prefect. When I was speaking to them, they both were looking right at me and answered with the utmost respect. It made my heart warm when Alex share with me that him and Oz have known each other since they were school mates. As my son is also named Alex, I actually felt like these young men were like my sons while in my home. I hope that their parents can get this feedback about how mature and professional their sons have become. Before they left, I was so impressed with both Alex and Oz that I invited them back for a BBQ when they are ever in my area again. If I ever need this type cleaning again, I will definitely ask for my Alex & Oz team!
