Answers About Cleaning Up After a Death in Dalworthington Gardens, TX

How much does unattended death cleanup cost?

The price depends on how long the person was in the home, how large the affected area is and whether fluids reached the subfloor. Furniture and odor treatment also change the total. A team can give a price range after hearing the details. Insurance may cover part of it.

Does the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pay for death cleanup?

Only when the death involved a crime. In that case the program pays up to $2,250 for crime scene clean-up for crimes after July 14, 2016. Insurance is used first and claims must be filed within three years. Questions go to the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933.

What happens to personal belongings and keepsakes?

Photos, papers, jewelry and other keepsakes are set aside, cleaned when possible and returned to the family. Tell the team what to look for. Items that cannot be made safe are removed, and the team explains why.

Will the smell go away on its own?

Usually not. Odor comes from fluids that soaked into carpet, padding, subfloor and walls. Opening windows or using sprays only covers it for a short time. The source has to be removed and the air and structure treated.

How is biohazard waste handled in Texas?

Biohazard waste is packaged in sealed containers and taken to approved disposal. In Texas, companies that haul other people's untreated medical waste register with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. Ask any team how its waste is hauled and disposed of.

Can the home be cleaned out for sale after the biohazard work?

Yes. Many families book an estate cleanout once the affected area is clean and safe. The crew sorts, removes and cleans the rest of the home. Ask whether one team can do both parts so access and timing stay simple.
