Crime Scene Cleanup Service Overview
Cleaning up at a crime scene can mean a variety of different things depending on the crime. Violent crimes like murder immediately invoke imagery of blood and carnage, but even less violent crimes like a break-in can require biohazard removal services. Streaks of blood on a broken window, bodily fluids on the floor, or blood spatter from a more serious injury can all pose serious health risks.
Professional Crime Scene Cleanup
BioteamNY-PA’s service will provide you with the comfort and peace of mind that your family is safe from bloodborne pathogens and other potentially infectious materials. Our experience and training—as well as our work with first responders—gives us a keen eye for finding everything that needs to be cleaned and decontaminated. Using the best tools in the industry, we ensure your home has been sufficiently cleaned, disinfected, and made safe to enter per the IICRC cleaning standards.
Crime Scene Cleanup Process
Prior to beginning our work, we make sure that our team is taking proper precautions and following OSHA guidelines to be safe during the cleanup. If the crime took place in a residence, we will help the family find a place to stay if needed, as well as helping retrieve any personal belongings that might be necessary for that timeframe.
Our work progress is documented via photographs, and any items that need to be transported to a medical waste disposal facility are documented as well. This could include flooring, drywall, and personal items, as this information may be required by the police department, or by homeowner’s insurance if there is an insurance claim submitted.

Bodily Fluids & Human Waste
Depending on the type of crime that was perpetrated, the scene may be impacted beyond what is visible on the surface. Our technicians are trained to find all the areas that need to be cleaned and disinfected to ensure your home or property is returned to a safe, habitable state.
Vehicle Cleanup
If the crime involves a vehicle, we can help coordinate our services with the impound lot and/or vehicle repair shop. In some instances, we may need to transport the vehicle to our facility for decontamination prior to releasing it for repairs. Regardless of the situation, we will work with your insurance company to get your vehicle returned to you as quickly and safely as possible.
Infectious Disease Cleanup
If there are concerns that bodily fluids spilled at the crime scene could contain infectious diseases, there is even more reason to have a professional biohazard cleaning service out to remediate your home. We will clean and disinfect your home so you and your family can feel safe again.
