Unattended Death Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Valley Brook Estates, Fort Worth, TX
When can cleanup begin after a death?
Cleanup begins after authorities release the property. In Texas, a justice of the peace or a medical examiner, depending on the county, looks into certain deaths. They and the police decide when the scene is released. Ask them for the release before booking a crew.
Who is responsible for cleaning up after a death?
Police and the medical examiner do not clean. The property owner, the family or the estate books and pays for cleanup. In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord or an attorney can explain the details.
What should I ask a death cleanup company before hiring?
Ask how it contains the area, what protective gear it uses and how it disposes of waste. Ask what is included in the price and whether you get documentation for an insurer. Ask how it treats odor and what happens if a smell remains.
Does the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pay for death cleanup?
Only when the death involved a crime. In that case the program pays up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016. Insurance is used first and claims must be filed within three years. Questions go to the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933.
How is biohazard waste handled in Texas?
Biohazard waste is packaged in sealed containers and taken to approved disposal. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. Ask any team how its waste is hauled and disposed of.
Will the smell go away on its own?
Usually not. Odor comes from fluids that soaked into carpet, padding, subfloor and walls. Opening windows or using sprays only covers it for a short time. The source has to be removed and the air and structure treated.
