  • Engineering and work‑practice controls
  • Proper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

  • Required technician vaccinations
  • Ongoing training and certification
  • Detailed documentation and record‑keeping

Our Biohazard Cleanup Process

We follow a structured, industry‑approved process to ensure thorough remediation and safety:

1. Assessment & Remediation Plan We evaluate the affected area, identify hazards, and create a customized cleanup plan.

2. Removal of Hazardous Materials All potentially infectious materials are removed and transported according to OSHA and state regulations. Waste is processed through a licensed medical waste incinerator.

3. Handling of Porous & Non‑Porous Materials

  • Porous items (carpet, bedding, upholstery) are removed when required by industry standards.
  • Non‑porous materials are cleaned, disinfected, and sanitized using EPA‑registered products.

Planning & Organization

To begin, we provide a full assessment of the incident and the area(s) affected. We will determine the level of containment needed and inform you of the plan of action.

Safety as a Priority

It is key to perform biohazard removal with special attention to safety and industry and OSHA standards. Our trained technicians wear special personal protective equipment to keep themselves safe. They also contain the area, taking the appropriate steps to keep you and your family or employees safe as well.

Medical Waste Removal

Hazardous medical waste, such as spinal fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, and other bodily fluids, is handled following OSHA regulations. It’s then sent to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator.

Thorough Cleanup & Decontamination

All affected porous material will be removed in accordance with industry standards and state regulations. All other infectious material will be safely discarded as well.  For non-porous surfaces, we will dry the affected area before applying a disinfectant. After allowing this to soak, we scrub, repeating the process to disinfect the space.

Deodorization

Typically, once the biohazard is cleaned and the area sanitized, odors dissipate. However, our crew will determine whether further deodorization is necessary. If so, we use hydroxyls or ozone to ensure the odor is gone.
