Why the strict steps? Because dried blood, tissue and decomposition fluids can still carry disease. Cleanup technicians in Spring Branch Central follow the OSHA bloodborne pathogen standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, and treat every stain as a hazard until it has been properly disinfected.

Biohazard cleaning is the safe removal of infectious or contaminated material and the disinfection of whatever it touched. Crews wear protective equipment, remove porous materials that cannot be made safe, and dispose of the waste under medical waste rules. It goes far beyond ordinary housecleaning.
Contaminated items are bagged, labeled and moved as regulated medical waste. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). Contaminated materials should not go in household trash.
Many policies do cover cleanup after a death in the home, but some exclude certain causes or situations. Read the policy or ask the insurer which parts apply. Call the insurance company before cleanup starts, and keep photos and receipts for the claim.

Cleanup can begin once the police, and a justice of the peace or medical examiner where one is involved, release the scene. Ask them directly when that happens. The cleanup team waits for that release before touching anything.
