Questions Families Ask About Homicide Cleanup in Elliott, Pittsburgh, PA

Is the family expected to clean the scene?

No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.

What paperwork is needed for the claim?

Expect to supply a bill or receipt, itemized costs and an insurance declaration page or a statement of no insurance. Ask the cleanup crew what paperwork you get. There is no fee to apply, and no lawyer is required.

How to clean a murder scene?

It should be left to professionals. Blood and body fluids carry bloodborne pathogens and often soak deeper than they look. A crew contains the area, removes contaminated materials, disinfects and treats odor.

Do I need to be there during cleanup?

No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.

What happens to belongings and keepsakes?

Crews set personal items aside and clean what can be saved. Items soaked with fluids may have to go. The team tells you what it finds, so you decide what matters.
