Yes. Most trauma and biohazard cleanups are covered by homeowners’, renters’, or business insurance. We provide full documentation and can bill your insurance company directly to minimize out-of-pocket costs.

Death clean up costs vary based on the size of the affected area, the type of contamination, and how long it’s been sitting. Minor incidents may be resolved in a few hours, while larger or prolonged situations require more time, equipment, and materials.

👉 Starting rates are typically $2,500+. This isn’t just labor — much of the cost comes from required compliance steps that protect you legally and medically. Every job includes proper labeling, packaging, and hazmat transportation under 6.2 infectious waste rules, along with manifests, disposal fees, and administrative reporting.

These safeguards ensure the cleanup is safe, fully compliant, and documented — so you’re never left exposed to fines, liability, or lingering health risks.

The longer a scene is left untreated, the higher the cost becomes — because contamination spreads into subfloors, drywall, and HVAC systems.

That’s why we provide free on-site estimates and walk you through exactly what’s needed before work begins.

Yes. We understand these situations are unexpected. HazWash™ offers flexible payment options, and we can work with third-party financing so you get immediate help without delay.

No. We arrive in unmarked vehicles and operate discreetly. From the outside, it looks like a routine service call — never a biohazard cleanup.

DIY trauma cleanup isn’t just unsafe — it can be criminal. Bloodborne pathogens, infectious diseases, and hazardous waste laws exist for a reason. Mishandling biohazard waste can lead to:

❌ OSHA Violations (29 CFR 1910.1030 – Bloodborne Pathogens Standard):
If you or an employee clean without proper training, PPE, or documentation, OSHA can fine you $15,000+ per violation.

❌ DOT Hazmat Violations (49 CFR 172.704 – Infectious Waste Transport):
Putting biohazard bags in a regular trash bin or vehicle isn’t just unsafe — it’s illegal. DOT fines can reach $80,000 per violation, doubled if someone is injured.

❌ EPA / State Environmental Violations (RCRA Subtitle C & Michigan Part 111/115):
Improper disposal can cost $25,000+ per day, per violation. That’s every day waste sits or is mishandled.

❌ Criminal Liability:
Knowingly mishandling or illegally dumping biohazard waste can result in misdemeanor or felony charges, with penalties ranging from hefty fines to jail time. Courts take this seriously, especially if exposure or harm occurs.

👉 Bottom line: a “cheap DIY cleanup” can snowball into $100,000+ in fines, lawsuits, and even jail time. Certified cleanup protects your health, property, and freedom.
