Unattended deaths that remain undiscovered for days, weeks, or even longer are surprisingly common, and managing these complex situations is our only line of business.

The technicians at Bio Recovery are equipped with the expertise, tools, and compassion necessary to handle these sensitive situations safely and effectively.
Don't burden yourself with the physically and emotionally strenuous task of cleanup. Let our professional team take care of it so you can focus on your emotional well-being and remembrance.
Why Can't I Do the Body Decomposition Cleanup Myself?
The decomposition process creates conditions that require immediate professional attention. The longer the body sits, the more dangerous and damaged the areas around it become. Decomposition also attracts insects due to the release of bacteria, which can lead to the spread of harmful pathogens and intensify odors. These conditions pose significant health risks to anyone entering the area.

An unattended death can create challenging and potentially hazardous conditions. The decomposition process begins rapidly after a body ceases to function, leading to significant physical changes. These changes can include the release of bodily fluids and the proliferation of harmful bacteria.
At Bio Recovery, our specialists have extensive experience in handling such situations, whether they result from natural causes, accidents, or other circumstances. We work diligently to restore affected areas to safe, habitable conditions, allowing you to focus on healing and remembrance.
We understand the sensitive nature of these situations and approach each case with the utmost respect and discretion. Our cleanup team will arrive in nondescript vehicles to ensure privacy. We maintain strict confidentiality, communicating only with you and your insurance carrier with your consent unless legally required to do otherwise.
Our goal is to alleviate your burden during this difficult time, handling all aspects of the cleanup process professionally and compassionately.
