The work often covers:
- A final inspection of each treated area before the space is released to the owner
- Photos and records that owners can give to insurers and landlords
- Packaging and disposal of regulated medical waste under California rules
- Removal of soaked carpet, padding, drywall, mattresses and upholstery
- Careful sorting and cleaning of personal property and keepsakes where possible
How Homicide Cleanup Works in Mosswood, Oakland, CA
2. Setup
Crews place barriers and protective sheeting and bring in the supplies they need for containment.
3. Make it safe again
Hard surfaces get a thorough disinfection, and the room is treated for odor so it no longer carries traces of what happened.
4. Treat odor and inspect
Odor is removed at the source, the air is filtered and each area is checked before the owner gets the space back.
