Homicide Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Beechview, Pittsburgh, PA
What should I tell the insurance company?
Say what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and which documents are needed. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.
Do I need to be there during cleanup?
No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.
Who cleans up murder scenes?
Specialized homicide cleaners do. Police and investigators gather evidence and then leave. After the scene is released, the owner, family or estate can book a homicide cleanup crew to remove the hazards.
What paperwork is needed for the claim?
Expect to supply a bill or receipt, itemized costs and an insurance declaration page or a statement of no insurance. Ask the cleanup crew what paperwork you get. There is no fee to apply, and no lawyer is required.
What happens to belongings and keepsakes?
Crews set personal items aside and clean what can be saved. Items soaked with fluids may have to go. The team tells you what it finds, so you decide what matters.
Is the family expected to clean the scene?
No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.
