Crimes in the United States can be chilling and in certain instances turn deadly for victims. The ironic part is that most crimes, even severe ones start out with a stupid idea and a dumb criminal who never intended for the crime to become violent.

Certified Crime Scene Cleanup Services

Who is responsible for the cleanup of Crime, Death, Trauma, Suicide and other Biohazard scenes is often not thought about.  We all see the news or hear about these victims and sometimes horrific things happening, but the thought of who actually cleans up or decontaminates these types of scenes is not thought about.

Who are these people? What are their lives like? And How do they do this type of work? Are the questions that may come to mind when reading this article.  Bio Clean Services is trained in the clean up and decontamination of these types of biohazards, returning the scene to the normal state it was prior to the incident occurring.

For over a decade, we’ve been responsible for cleaning thousands of scenes ranging from suicide, gunshots, stabbings, violent home intrusions, vehicular accidents and even jail cells or police cars that contain blood, urine, feces and other biohazards. We are specifically trained in the removal, cleaning, disinfecting and sometimes remodeling that is necessary to restore these scenes.  After authorities and medical personnel are gone, it’s typically the property owners responsibility to clean up the aftermath of the incident.  As we’ve discussed in previous articles, this poses a significant health threat to the person cleaning and also those around or in contact with a contaminated scene. Special precautions must be followed, equipment used and waste properly disposed (often times with special permits) in order to ensure the safety of all involved.

Bio Clean Services offers professional, compassionate services that aide property owners in cleaning and remediation of any form of biohazard. Our trained technicians can assist property owners with the necessary paperwork for insurance claims and can provide remodeling services for scenes that require physical elements to be permanently removed from a location. We have experience working in maximum security environments and are skilled at minimizing the visual exposure to onlookers or public when necessary.

Biohazard technicians that clean these types of scenes for a living are unique individuals who are passionate about helping clients through a very traumatic time. They are dedicated in restoring scenes to safe environments and protecting the people involved.  These cleaners see sometimes horrible scenes and visually experience things that no one should ever have to see.  Every technician is different and deals with the afterthoughts of their job in different ways. In many ways they are just like everyone else, but in their own way are often quiet natured, reserved and don’t talk about the work that they do. It’s hard not to have emotional challenges when seeing some of the scenes that require our services but in most cases the desire to help our clients through the trauma and return their lives to some form of normalcy helps negate their emotional states.

Crime rates down from previous years

Crime in our country is the lowest it’s been in the past 42 years according to news reports. This also seems to be the case on a national average.  According to news reports, the largest drops occurred in motor vehicle thefts, aggravated assaults, larcenies, burglaries and robberies.

Bio Clean Services  provides Crime Scene Cleanup Services in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia. We have also noticed a difference in the amount of calls we receive for Crime Scene Cleanup versus other biohazard and blood cleanup services that we perform. Because Imprisonment is at an all time high in the nation, we have to wonder if there is a direct relation to the decrease in Crime related incidents?

Government officials seem to think that the decrease is partially attributed by the onset of several anti crime initiatives  such as banning panhandlers, installation of city wide security cameras, programs targeting illegal weapons and even increasing late night police patrol units to accommodate late night bar hours.

The professional technicians of Bio Clean Services are experienced in Crime, Death, Trauma and other biohazard incidents that involve blood cleanup. We offer services to individual victims of crime and tragedy and also professional services for police and emergency vehicle cleanup. While crime seems to be less, the amount of non-crime related incidents involving the need for biohazard cleanup services remains steady.

We recently talked about the dangers associated with untrained individuals who attempt biohazard cleanup, especially from Crimes. When there is a presence of luminol or fingerprint dust, the potential for biohazard contamination spread is much greater. What appears to be a simple cleanup task can turn out to be a huge risk for spreading infectious diseases and contaminating other areas of an incident scene.

If you have experienced a crime or traumatic incident, contact our certified biohazard cleaning team today for assistance. We’re insurance claim experts and offer 24 hour emergency service in northeastern United States to help protect you.
