What Are Biohazard Cleaning Services?

Biohazard cleaning services, also known as crime scene cleanup or biohazard remediation, are specialized services designed to safely remove, clean, and disinfect dangerous biohazardous materials. The goal is to restore affected areas to a safe, habitable condition, protecting both immediate occupants and the wider community. 

A biohazard, short for biological hazard, refers to any biological substance that poses a threat to human or community health. These can include:

  • Blood and other bodily fluids
  • Human or animal waste or tissue
  • Infectious diseases caused by microorganisms, viruses, or bacteria (e.g., C. diff or E. coli)
  • Harmful pathogens

Most families assume that law enforcement or emergency services handle cleanups after death, crimes, or other traumas. In reality, this responsibility falls to the property owner. That’s where Bio Recovery steps in. 

As a family-owned company, Bio Recovery has grown to become one of America’s largest and most trusted biohazard cleanup specialists. We offer rapid, discrete, and compassionate professional services and adhere to strict regulations for cleaning, deodorizing, and disposing of biohazards. 

Our local branch serving Norfolk can typically be on-site within 24 hours. We understand the financial burden these situations can create, so we work diligently to manage insurance claims and offer self-pay discounts, keeping your expenses as low as possible.

I contracted the services of BioRecovery for a Biohazard clean-up in my home. From Alex, the lead on the cleanup team, to Jessica, who coordinated with the insurance company, everything was done top-notch. The team worked clean and quickly to remove all the damaged property and Jessica was instrumental in getting my insurance company to cover the replacement of the items which were damaged. Just as important, as promised, they accomplished everything within the financial limits set by my insurance company. There were no additional bills. This is the company to use, if you are ever in need of a biohazard clean-up.
