What Is Homeless Encampment Cleanup?
Homeless encampment cleanup is the safe removal of trash, biohazards, and debris after a camp has been vacated. It is not regular junk hauling. Camps often contain used needles, human waste, and items soaked in body fluids. These need trained crews and proper disposal.
We clean sites on private property, like parking lots, vacant lots, building alcoves, and wooded areas behind businesses. We do not remove people. Our job starts once the area has been vacated. Since 2007, property owners across the Pacific Northwest have trusted us with this work. One recent client said our team went from quote to finished cleanup in under four hours.

The Health Risks Left Behind
- Used needles can carry hepatitis and HIV, and King County warns never to pick one up with your hands, even with gloves on
- Human waste can spread hepatitis A, which the CDC links to outbreaks among people experiencing homelessness
- Soaked bedding and clothing can hold bacteria and bodily fluids
- Food waste draws rats and other pests
In King County, needles found on private property are the property owner's responsibility. That is why many owners call a professional.

How Much Does Encampment Cleanup Cost?
The price depends on the size of the site, how much debris there is, and how many hazards are present. Small sites can be cleared in a few hours. Larger sites may take a full day or more.
Some commercial property policies cover this kind of cleanup. We give you a clear quote upfront and can work with your insurer. Learn more on our pricing and insurance page.
Common Questions About Encampment Cleanup
Do you remove people from the property?
No. We only clean once a site is vacated. For camps on public land in Seattle, report them to the city through the Find It, Fix It app.
What happens to belongings left behind?
We photograph and document what we find. We can set aside personal items like IDs, papers, or medications if you need us to.
Can you help keep camps from coming back?
We focus on cleanup, but a clean, well-lit site is less likely to be reused. Many clients book us for regular site checks.
How fast can you start?
Often the same day. We answer 24/7.
We also offer commercial biohazard cleanup and animal waste cleanup. Read our customer reviews.
