What Is Trauma Scene Cleanup?

Trauma cleanup refers to the removal of biohazardous materials and the disinfection of spaces impacted by events such as:
  • Accidents or injuries with excessive blood or bodily fluids
  • Medical emergencies or unattended medical deaths
  • Assaults, stabbings, or shootings
  • Domestic violence scenes – Self-harm or suicide attempts – Industrial or workplace injuries
  • Vehicle-related trauma (interior and exterior)

  • Biohazard removal and proper disposal
  • Cleaning and disinfecting of all affected surfaces
  • Odor elimination using commercial-grade purification systems
  • Removal of contaminated materials (carpet, furniture, etc.)
  • Structural restoration planning (if needed)
  • Insurance claim documentation

We follow strict OSHA guidelines and use EPA-registered cleaning agents and PPE (personal protective equipment) to ensure every surface is properly cleaned and every step is handled safely.
Our trauma cleanup team works in coordination with law enforcement, EMS, property managers, and victim support advocates to ensure a seamless and respectful response.
