We have likely seen it on a television show or movie, but crime scene cleaners are real people in Atlanta, Kennesaw, Marietta, Sandy Springs, Savannah, Smyrna, GA, and the surrounding areas and they are needed once law enforcement have done what they need to do. At ATL Bio, we have seen and done many different crime scene cleanings. While not all crime scenes necessarily require our level of services, many of them do because of blood and other biohazards that are present, drug paraphernalia, or other items. The location of these crime scenes can also vary, from happening in homes to vehicles and even commercial or industrial buildings or properties. Every crime scene is different and requires a different approach. Contact us today to learn more about how crime scene cleaning services.
Things That We Have Dealt With
It happens enough that there is a term for it in the industry: “biohazard car”. This is a vehicle that has had blood and/or other bodily fluids in the vehicle, from the seats to the floors and elsewhere. We thoroughly clean, disinfect, and deodorize the vehicle so that it is once again usable. We also have dealt with “meth houses” where drugs of all kinds have been found or made. These substances can be lethal and it takes the right approach to fully decontaminate and rehabilitate these buildings.
Performing cleaning at a crime scene where body part fragments and fluids are present offer some particularly challenging cleaning. Different substances can dry and harden, and it takes a special kind of cleaner to be able to remove things. And as crime scene cleaners, we often are around the family members of the victims of a crime, which can present challenges of their own.
Who Is Responsible for Crime Scene Cleaning
This question is a common one, and people have different opinions about who should actually be cleaning a crime scene. Many think that law enforcement will do the cleaning, but that isn’t the case. Prior to organizations like ours, it was left to the family or to the business owner to deal with a crime scene cleaning. Because so often there are biohazards at crime scenes, that gave rise to professional cleaning services that specialize in these kinds of situations.
Crime scene cleaners have to deal with a lot of challenging situations in Atlanta, Kennesaw, Marietta, Sandy Springs, Savannah, Smyrna, GA, and the surrounding areas, including bodily fluids and body parts, drugs and associated items, decomposition of bodies, and more. For most people, they aren’t equipped to handle these issues, but our team at ATL Bio has been trained and experienced in dealing with them.
