Answers About Cleaning Up After a Death in New Dorp / Midland Beach, New York, NY

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.

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.

Do I need to be at the property during cleanup?

In many cases no. Ask the team how access and keys can be set up. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can ask the team to set aside photos, papers and keepsakes for you.

How long does it take to clean out a house after someone dies?

It varies with the size of the home and the amount of belongings. A cleaned and sorted house can take days to weeks. Biohazard cleanup comes first when the death was unattended, and the sorting follows once the home is safe.

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.

Does homeowners insurance cover unattended death cleanup?

Many homeowners policies cover death cleanup after the deductible, though some exclude certain causes. Renters policies often cover belongings but not the building. Call your insurer before cleanup starts, take photos if you can and keep every receipt.
