Cleaning up after crime scene cleans may look easy, however you need to be careful as diseases such as hepatitis, HIV, and other deadly diseases may be present. Many items have sharp objects that can puncture skins. Even simple things such as moving a blood stained mattress may be a challenge; the cleaner must be careful not to bend the mattress in a way that pushes blood into his eyes and mouth by accident.

We have trained technicians in Washington and Oregon who on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, including holidays. Depending on where you are located, we can usually reach a location in 30 to 90 minutes.

Jobs are generally done in 2-8 hours.

SHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standards (29CFR1910.1030) states that employees must be provided with information and training prior to dealing with blood or other potentially infectious material (OPIM), including:

• Receiving blood-borne pathogen (BBP) training.
• Having a written BBP exposure control plan.
• Having been provided personal protective equipment.
• Having been offered Hepatitis B vaccine and exposure evaluation and follow-up.
• Being provided with a method to remove and properly store the bio-hazardous waste in properly marked containers for disposal at an approved site.
• Only after all of these five steps have been met can an employee be required by his or her employer to clean a bio hazardous/crime scene.
• And finally, if someone is caught illegally dumping items contaminated with blood and body fluids, the person can and will be fined (with fines in the $1000s) or even face jail time.

In the end, it is best to keep your family, friends, and employees safe and hire a certified and experienced company like Bio Management Northwest to take care of the cleanup.

When covered by insurance, there will be zero cost to you. Bio Management Northwest waives your deductible up to $1500 to guarantee that you will not have to pay a penny. When a job is not covered by insurance, we use sliding scale pricing to determine the cost of a job. To get a free quote, please call us at 1-877-524-6411.

Bio Management Northwest considers a few key factors and the cost is determined by the number of technicians necessary, the hours required to do the job, the amount of hazardous material needing disposal, and the cost of certain supplies needed to complete the cleaning process. More pricing information can be found on our Pricing page.

99% of incidents like these that occur in the home or vehicle are covered by homeowner’s insurance. With renters insurance, it often depends on your coverage, but we are happy to look at your policy for you and help with the process.

It’s important to note that insurance companies cannot dictate who you use.

When policy holders call their insurance company, often times the adjuster’s office will try to coerce policy holders into using a specific company such as Service Master, Servpro, etc. They do so because they have more control over these companies if they want to be on their “referral list.” The law states that clients are free to use whom ever they choose, and that benefits and guarantees can not be withheld from policy holders.

Remember, Bio Management Northwest has your best interest at heart, not in pleasing the insurance companies. With 20 years experience, we have the expertise to address all your issues.

We are always available to you 24/7/365. We have technicians on call at all times, including late at night, on weekends, and even on holidays.

We serve all areas of Washington and Oregon states.

The last thing that you want to worry about when a crime occurs on your property is the cost involved in the cleanup. Insurance often provides you with coverage that will remove a great deal of this burden, but these cases can often be complex to resolve. It is important to understand that should hazards be present, cleanup should be performed as soon as possible.

The answer to the question of whether or not crime scene cleanup is covered by insurance depends upon the type of insurance that you have and your insurance carrier. Homeowner’s insurance will often cover crime scene cleanup in the home or your vehicle most of the time, but renters insurance can be more complicated. Our team is happy to assist you in determining whether our services are covered under your insurance policy, so call our team to learn more about your options.
