What biohazard cleanup covers:
The cleanup team looks at what happened, how far the contamination spread and what the surfaces are made of. That sets the plan, the protective gear and the products.
Items that fluids have soaked into are removed, because germs can hide deep inside porous materials. Everything is bagged and labeled as it leaves the room.
Visible material is picked up first. Soaked carpet, padding and other porous items are cut out, sealed and set aside, and the remaining surfaces are scrubbed.
Waste is packed for regulated hauling, and odor is treated at its source. The crew shows the owner the finished area and explains the paperwork.
Biohazard cleanup in Midfield, AL typically costs $1,500 to $25,000, depending on the size of the affected area and the materials involved.
