Is specialized crime scene cleanup safer than using a regular cleaning company?

A trained biohazard cleanup team is better suited to assess and handle blood or bodily fluid contamination. Code Three Trauma Clean’s certified professionals are trained in OSHA bloodborne pathogen standards, EPA safety guidelines, and relevant PPE protocols, and follow OSHA, EPA, and CDC standards for hazardous materials handling and decontamination.

What should I do before the cleanup team arrives?

Keep people and pets away from affected areas, and do not attempt to clean or move contaminated materials. If the scene is still under investigation, wait for law enforcement to release it before arranging access.

How quickly can a crew respond in Kirkwood?

Emergency response is available 24/7, including nights and weekends. Dispatch timing depends on the circumstances and location, so share the property address and urgency when you call.

Can the team help with insurance paperwork while protecting my privacy?

Yes, Code Three Trauma Clean can assist with insurance claims and documentation for homeowners, business policies, and liability coverage when applicable. The team handles sensitive circumstances discreetly and works to minimize disruption to the property.

How do I know whether the property is ready for cleanup?

Confirm that law enforcement has released the scene before arranging entry or cleanup. If you are unsure, ask the investigating agency about release status, then contact the cleanup team to discuss the affected areas and next steps.
