Answers About Cleaning Up After a Death in Farmers Branch, TX
What is the best way to clean out my parents' home after their death?
Start with safety. If the death was unattended, biohazard cleanup comes first. Then set aside papers, photos and valuables, sort the rest by room and book hauling. An estate cleanout team can do the heavy work while the family makes decisions.
What should I ask a death cleanup company before hiring?
Ask how it contains the area, what protective gear it uses and how it disposes of waste. Ask what is included in the price and whether you get documentation for an insurer. Ask how it treats odor and what happens if a smell remains.
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.
Will the neighbors know about the cleanup?
Crews work quietly and handle the job with discretion. Ask about arrival and parking details when you call. If a landlord needs to notify other tenants, that is the landlord's decision, not the crew's.
What safety standards do cleanup crews follow?
Workers who handle blood and body fluids are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. It calls for protective equipment, safe handling and proper disposal. Ask any team what training it has and how it disposes of waste.
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.
