Crime scene cleanup in Aurora is not something a family should do alone
After police and the coroner leave, the room is handed back to whoever owns or rents it. In most cases no public agency cleans it. That falls to the family, the landlord or the business owner.
Blood and other body fluids can carry bloodborne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV, according to OSHA. Cleanup companies work in sealed suits and respirators, remove soaked materials, disinfect what stays and haul the waste away in sealed containers.

Common questions
Does this line send its own cleanup crew?
No. It is a referral line. Your call is connected with an independent cleanup company that serves your ZIP code, and you deal with that company directly.
Can someone come today?
Calls are answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When a company can start depends on that company and on whether police and the coroner have released the scene. Ask them on the call.
Will insurance pay?
Sometimes. Many homeowner and renter policies respond to sudden events, but every policy is different. Call your insurer, ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered and whether they need to see the damage first. See who pays for cleanup.
Do you also cover Denver?
Yes. Calls from the Denver ZIP codes on the Denver page are connected the same way.
