What Is Death Cleanup? Understanding Biohazard Remediation After a Loss

At American Bio Management, we specialize in accidental death cleanup services, offering compassionate and discreet cleanup of blood, bodily fluids, and other biohazards. Our priority is to restore safety, hygiene, and peace of mind to affected families, property owners, and organizations.

Death cleanup—also referred to as biohazard cleanup—is a specialized cleaning service that addresses the aftermath of a death. This includes the removal of bodily fluids, blood, tissue, and decomposition odors from the affected area. These services are not only essential for health and safety, but also for restoring peace of mind for families, landlords, and property managers.

Why Is Professional Death Cleanup Important?

When a person passes away—especially in the case of an unattended death, suicide, or crime scene—there are serious health risks involved. Biohazardous materials like blood and tissue can carry pathogens and must be handled according to strict OSHA and EPA guidelines. Professional death cleanup ensures the property is decontaminated and safe to occupy again.

When Is Death Cleanup Needed?
Our services are typically needed in cases of:

  • Unattended deaths (days or weeks before discovery)
  • Suicides or attempted suicides
  • Homicides or violent crimes
  • Traumatic accidents in the home or workplace
  • Natural deaths resulting in decomposition

What Does the Death Cleanup Process Involve?

Bodily Fluid & Tissue Removal
Our technicians safely remove and disinfect all contaminated surfaces, including blood, tissue, and other fluids using professional-grade tools and EPA-approved cleaners.

Odor Elimination
Decomposition often produces strong, lingering odors. We use industrial ozone, hydroxyl machines, and deodorizers to completely eliminate unpleasant smells.

Biohazard Disposal
All waste is disposed of in compliance with local, state, and federal regulations. We handle the full transport and documentation process, so you don’t have to.

Property Restoration
If walls, flooring, or fixtures have been damaged by biohazard exposure, we provide full trauma scene restoration—returning your property to a clean, safe, and habitable condition.

Discreet and Compassionate Service
At American Bio Management, we understand the emotional weight of these situations. Our team approaches every job with care, discretion, and a deep respect for those affected.

Does Insurance Cover Death Cleanup Services?
In many cases, homeowner’s insurance or property insurance may cover the cost of death cleanup. We can assist you with documentation and claim submission, helping to reduce out-of-pocket costs during an already difficult time.
